Chapter 166: Sakurajima was seen through by Aoi again

……

Monday.

Aoi Natsuki had just arrived at the school, and from afar, he saw that the senior school building he was in was surrounded by people, basically all gathered in front of the second senior class’ class, and there was no need to guess that they were all here for Sakurajima Apricot.

The boys who were originally so shy that they didn’t have an excuse to dare to come, now they also dare to squeeze in to take a look through the crowds, Aoi Natsuki is slightly worried, not about Sakurajima’s safety, but rather that she will end up showing her true colors because of too much interference in her daily life, this guy, where does it say so.

The time quickly came to the third period of the afternoon class, which was the day of the Exploratory Club’s club activities.

Aoi Natsuki and Takahashi and Hayakawa three people arrived early, the class time has been more than ten minutes, it seems that today Sakurajima will not come, coupled with today, Sakurajima has a whole month of time did not come to the club activities, the reason for the presence of a number of people also know, but Sakurajima is not, the whole club activities of the atmosphere inevitably a little dull.

“Hey, it always feels like something’s missing when Sakurajima’s not around.” Hayakawa mumbled listlessly.

“Have you? I do feel quieter than usual.” Natsuki Arai opened the folder and pulled the exercise book out of it, “It’s close to the end of the semester, so why don’t Hayakawa review it for us again?”

“Well, that’s fine, it’s just that this is the fourth week, Aoi, are you really not worried about Sakurajima at all? I’m so worried about a girl suddenly enduring so much, I’m worried that she’s in some kind of trouble.” Hayakawa’s mind about this had falsely imagined such a thing happening to her, and ultimately summarized her thoughts by saying that it was simply horrible! Being followed by so many people, the traffic was more disturbing at the same time, and a girl like her who struggled to talk to a stranger would undoubtedly stay in hiding when she met a situation like this until the storm stopped.

“Don’t worry about her, it’s probably not even in her head right now.”

“Then if that’s the case, why hasn’t she been coming to the club events?” Hayakawa asked the key question.

“This ……” Aoi also could not answer, yes, if according to this line of thought, Sakurajima does not care about anything, that is not more should come to the club activities, why would not come for four weeks in a row?

He couldn’t make a rational explanation.

“Could it be that she’s actually afraid of affecting us and doesn’t want our daily lives to be disturbed?” Takahashi Midu, who was on the side, suddenly came up and said.

Aoi Natsuki froze at first, for a moment it made sense to him, but when he came back to his senses and thought about what had happened, she wasn’t someone who would think so much about it, and if coming to the club’s activities regularly would put a damper on their lives, then given her character, she might have taken the initiative to make it happen.

“No, it can’t be, she’s not like that.”

“But people change, right?” Takahashi Mito said this with what appeared to be conviction, even though there was a lot of disbelief in her tone, because just thinking about it again, it really didn’t fit Sakurajima’s character.

“Ah ah, this atmosphere is so suffocating, it feels like watching a good friend meet difficulties but there’s never anything you can do about it, Aoi! You go to understand ah, among the three of us …… you should be more suitable.” Takahashi Mito crossed her arms in front of her chest, the first half of the sentence sounded bottomless, but the second half of the sentence was tinged with a little bit of jealousy.

Aoi Natsuki tapped the tip of his right index finger on the cover of his exercise book, he hesitated a little, something inside him did feel uncomfortable, taking for granted to envision someone else which in itself was a foolish act.

“Uh, okay.” Finally agreed.

Hearing this, the remaining two people’s complexion slightly relieved, it seems that a few people treat each other as sincere friends, so the feeling of problems, only to worry about this and that, after discussing a result, the three people’s subsequent review became much smoother.

……

Aoi Natsuki thought to specifically find a day to ask Sakurajima to come out to meet, if there is really any emotion, both sides face to face will be better to talk about some, but how could he not expect, just the next day, another video with more than two million plays appeared on the popular.

When Arai Natsuki knew, he just happened to get up early in the morning in brushing his teeth, right hand holding a toothbrush, left hand swiping the phone, just happened to see that video, and take Sakurajima apricot as a cover, which has long been commonplace in the past few days, but labeled in red is a little strange, close to see, this video owner is actually an official, or a news official.

He immediately clicked in and realized it was a private interview.

What the hell? You scared me. I thought something was wrong.

Aoi Natsuki opened the comment section and suddenly found it flooded with all kinds of skepticism, of course some people praised her for her straightforward personality, but a significant portion of the population badmouthed her.

The brushing of his teeth stopped as he began to pay serious attention to what was really going on in this video, and then flipped down the toilet lid and sat on his butt, quietly watching the interview in the video.

Sakurajima in the video was as beautiful as a flower, her thick-faced facade made it so that she didn’t need to use any makeup at all, and her skin was still so delicate under the camera of the official news, a level that would definitely be the point of jealousy by countless girls.

Sakurajima apricot sitting on a chair, in the center is a high coffee table, on the right side there is a short-haired female reporter is asking her questions, from the idea of this burst of fire event on her all the way to the follow-up intention, but Sakurajima but every word is answered very simple, from time to time also aim their eyes out of the camera, it seems to be the need of the work to accept this interview, Aoi Natsuki watched and smiled helplessly, this official news he has also paid attention to it before. The whole network has about 7.5 million fans, so not to give face you really is the first one.

Natsuki Aoi continued to look down.

Up to this point, it just makes it seem like she’s a little short on words in person, but it’s not quite as bad as the name-calling in the comments section, is it?

And then a question that made Aoi’s attention involuntarily focus.

“I see you’ve been distracted, Sakurajima-san, is there something on your mind?”

Sakurajima apricot heard this, suddenly some interest up, eyes directly to the camera, and that a glance directly in front of the camera Aoi Natsuki gaze stunned, the picture quality is too clear, it makes it look like she is in the same as themselves, just now the expressionless look at the moment gradually have a smile, and the same as in the movie smile, so that the people who see it feel refreshing at once.

However, Aoi Natsuki had a very bad feeling in her heart when she saw that expression.

That expression signaled her point of interest coming up.

“Eh …… didn’t expect you to observe quite carefully well, of course there is oh, I have been thinking about it.”

The female reporter reacted from that beauty storm of Sakurajima’s face and hurriedly brought the microphone closer, continuing to ask, “Can you tell us specifically what’s going on? You can also share it with your favorite fans and friends.”

“No, it’s not a thing that’s on my mind, it’s a person, a …… person that I care about a lot.” Sakurajima Apricot narrowed her eyes at the female reporter.

Aoi Natsuki immediately sucked in a breath.

This guy! It’s not going to happen!

The female reporter also smelled the flavor of gossip in an instant, and holding the frame on her nose, she once again asked, “Is the person Sakurajima-san is talking about a boy? Is it hard to believe that it’s someone you like?”

This was a rather tricky question, and as an artist basically trying to avoid such questions, Aoi Natsuki had her eyes glazed over at that moment as well, waiting for Sakurajima’s answer in the video.

Sakurajima Apricot first murmured in silence, then straightened her sitting position, looked straight into the camera, and smiled, “Of course.”

Slap–

Arai Natsuki slapped her right palm heavily on her forehead, Sakurajima was being too truthful.

“So you’re in love, then is it convenient for Sakurajima-san to reveal the name of this boy?”

Aoi Natsuki was shocked, this answer was undoubtedly exactly what Sakurajima Apricot wanted, like her such a troublesome character, she might actually point out her name in the video! His mind had even anticipated that Sakurajima would point to the camera and very frankly inform all the viewers watching the video of her name, there was absolutely no way that this guy would let go of such an interesting thing!

The most worrying thing happened after all.

He looked at Sakurajima in the video and somehow his face managed to quickly become flushed from the illusion, biting down on the toothbrush in his mouth as he waited to see what Sakurajima would reply.

Sakurajima took a breath and straightened her legs, then pressed her right foot against her left ankle as if she was deliberately stalling for time, and after five or six seconds had passed, smiled lightly at the camera, “Sorry, no comment.”

Hmm?

Surprisingly, she refused to answer the question.

Subsequently the female reporter tried to break through her defenses from other angles, but Sakurajima but every answer perfectly circumvented there about Aoi Natsuki, just the tone of voice is still very ambiguous, Aoi Natsuki did not have the eyes to see, too barefaced expression of good feelings, I believe that if you open the pop-up screen, it must be all the overflowing various questions.

Aoi Natsuki also finally realized the reason why she was scolded, hey, just make it you.

The progress bar is coming to an end.

The female reporter asked this question again, “But as far as we know, akb girl group idols are supposed to be unable to fall in love, and before that a member was forced to apologize in public for falling in love, and ended up shaving her head as a sign of remorse, so Sakurajima-san isn’t worried that some of those words just now will be heard by your boss, and that it’ll affect the next part of your career as an idol?”

“Old boss?” Sakurajima Apricot lightly spat out these two words under her breath with an expression that looked like she was caught up in memories, then she thought of something and said, “Oh, that fat guy, it doesn’t matter, I don’t care at all about what he said.”

!!!

It’s a death sentence! She actually called Autumn XX that fatty!

The female reporter froze in shock directly on the spot, and after the obvious editing, she said two closing words to Sakurajima, and this interview video was all but played out.

Sitting on the lid of the toilet, Aoi’s mouth was slightly open, and after a few moments, she instead began to laugh, albeit bitterly; let’s just say it was a disaster to make her an idol, Hetty, and this time it’s up to you to top it.

……

Sitting in the classroom, sure enough the people in the classroom were also discussing the interview video, and this time the storm was even bigger than even the previous two days, except that the people gathered around the door of the classroom of the second class were obviously much smaller.

At noon time, Natsuki Arai received a text message from Sakurajima saying that he was asked to come to the activity classroom and that he had something important to tell him.

Aoi looked at this text message, inexplicably felt a trace of seriousness, whether it is the acting circle, or the idol circle, is not a child playing house, it is easy because of some words or wrong behavior, by the netizen cyber violence, cyber violence is just like a silent knife, stabbed in you, and will not even shed a drop of blood.

He then asked Hayakawa and Takahashi and found out that they both received text messages from Sakurajima.

Aoi Natsuki immediately heads to the complex and meets Hayakawa and Takahashi at the bottom of the building, apparently they’ve seen the video of the interview as well, which was supposedly from a few days ago and only just festered today.

“Sakurajima couldn’t have called us here to try to tell us that she’s going to take a break from school first, could she ……” Hayakawa faltered as he offered his innermost point of concern.

This ……

The three men looked at each other.

Aoi Natsuki knew that Sakurajima was special, but she was still a girl after all, and Aoi couldn’t quite confirm whether or not she could really withstand cyberstorms, and this text message had certainly raised his fears to the highest level.

The three of them discussed the matter a couple more times, but to no avail, they had to head to the activity classroom together.

Five minutes later, the three came to the door, Aoi Natsuki pushed open the door, Sakurajima Apricot was standing at the window of the classroom, while the sweeping cabinet on the side was wide open, Aoi’s heart was shocked, he knew very well what was all in that cabinet, looking at the inside at this time was empty, a very bad premonition rose in his heart.

The heart can’t help but beat faster.

Gulping, he walked into the activity classroom with the remaining two.

“Sakurajima ……,” Hayakawa read first with concern.

Sakurajima Apricot, looking slightly tired and with heavy bags under her eyes, shifted a bit as she turned back, noticing the trio in the doorway and whispering under her breath, “You’re here ……”

“Sakurajima, what the hell is wrong with you? It looks like you’re in bad shape!” Takahashi Mito walked through the two men and quickly stepped forward trying to check Sakurajima’s current condition.

“It’s fine, I’ve had some trouble sleeping the last couple days, no big deal.” Sakurajima walked around the square table, his eyes not looking at Aoi, “I called you all here today, mainly because I want to tell you something.”

Step by step, he approached Aoi until he stopped when he was close to twenty centimeters away and slowly raised his eyes.

Aoi Natsuki’s pressure was doubled at this point, his eyes slowly fell on Sakurajima’s face, and he was about to say something when suddenly he sensed something.

?

The tight face loosened at once.

With that, his right hand, which had just sprouted sweat on his palm, clenched and raised a little closer to Sakurajima’s face.

This action directly made Hayakawa in the rear look dumbfounded, this, this, this is what is going on!

However what happened next wasn’t like one of those doggone romantic idol dramas where he would cup the other person’s face, instead his right hand reached straight up higher and simply used his thumb, pressing it against the dimly darkened bags under Sakurajima’s eyes, lightly smudging them, and then looking to his thumb.

“Sure enough ……”

Aoi Natsuki’s face became calm and followed closely by showing Sakurajima his blackened thumb.

Sakurajima Apricot saw the situation, but did not react too much, just a face of decadence steeply reversed, a joyful smile on his face, hands together, tilted his head sweetly said, “Hey, exposed?”

“Sakurajima,……!” Aoi Natsuki frowned, anger evident in her tone, but to say she was angry, Takahashi Mito, who had been worrying about her at the back, exploded in anger straight away when she realized she’d been tricked and rushed over to teach Sakurajima a lesson.

Sakurajima immediately chose to follow her Qin Wang around the pillar, but her stamina was the worst of all the girls, and within two steps, she was mercilessly grabbed and pressed against the square table and ravaged until Takahashi’s anger subsided, and Sakurajima was finally the one to pay her just deserts.

After the farce was over, Sakurajima Apricot made a solemn announcement.

“For six months from now, I’ve been completely banned from all idol activities by the AKB girl group, so I can stay with you all again, happy or not?”

Raised an eyebrow at a few people.

But Arai and Takahashi weren’t about to forgive her so quickly, and don’t think this can be turned around so quickly!

As Aoi thought of saying something to teach Sakurajima a couple more lessons, Hayakawa’s behavior made him dismiss all the things he wanted to say next, only to see her rushing up in a single stride and burrowing right into Sakurajima’s arms, even Sakurajima was a bit surprised and looked down at her in surprise.

“Welcome back ……” Hayakawa said with a sob in her voice, who was she to think so much, knowing that Sakurajima was okay was enough to make her happy.

Hearing this, Sakurajima Apricot’s eyes became gentle and she gently stroked over Hayakawa’s head, softly saying, “Good good good.”

The Discovery Club foursome regroups.
