100 Chapter 100 Equally In Need Of Change.

"Na...Nanaya-san!?"

Sakura Airi, who had been quietly listening to the conversation between Fang Li and Horikita Suzune, became flustered.

However, disregarding Sakura Airi's fluster, the entire Class D students started making a commotion.

"Shizuku? An idol?"

"Are you talking about the Shizuku who appeared on the cover of the weekly magazine?"

" Be Friends with Shizuku?"

"What...what does this mean!?"

The students in the class immediately became noisy.

Of course, not everyone reacted this way.

Only the students who were familiar with the name "Shizuku," those who usually read magazines and browse blogs, knew about it.

People like Horikita Suzune, Yukimura Teruhiko, and Kouenji Rokusuke, probably had never even heard of this name. So while many in the class were causing a ruckus, they just furrowed their brows.

It was Ayanokouji Kiyotaka who broke the silence. He looked at the flustered Sakura Airi and, with an unchanged tone, hesitated for a moment before uttering a crucial sentence.

"Could it be, Sakura is that Shizuku?"

After all, what Fang Li had just said and Sakura Airi's current reaction made it evident.

"This...this can't be, right?"

"Ho...how is that possible?"

Ike Kanji and Yamauchi Haruki's expressions were somewhat stiff, and they pulled out a magazine from somewhere.

On the cover of that magazine was a photo of Sakura Airi, taken in the likeness of Shizuku.

Led by Ike Kanji and Yamauchi Haruki, the boys in the class gathered together, comparing the photos to Sakura Airi in person, and their faces gradually stiffened.

"It...it really looks a bit like Sakura, huh?"

"But...but Shizuku doesn't wear glasses!"

"The hairstyle is different too!"

"More importantly, Shizuku looks very cheerful, how could it be the plain and unremarkable Sakura?"

The boys were wavering and saying very disrespectful things.

But one thing was certain.

At this moment, the attention of everyone in the whole class was focused on Sakura Airi.

"Ah..."

Sakura Airi suddenly shrank her body and became somewhat timid.

She already disliked drawing attention to herself, and being the center of attention for the whole class must have been very uncomfortable for Sakura Airi.

"Nanaya-san..."

Sakura Airi turned her uncomfortable and puzzled gaze towards Fang Li.

Presumably, Sakura Airi never expected that Fang Li would reveal her true identity in front of the whole class.

Fang Li, on the other hand, didn't think much of it.

"Sorry for revealing such an important thing without permission," Fang Li said, with a somewhat ambiguous expression, "But, you also need to change."

Although exposing Sakura Airi's true identity might cause some trouble, who knows what might happen.

There might be another obsessive fan, like the one from the electronics store, in this school.

But Fang Li believed that Sakura Airi's shy and timid personality posed the real danger, compared to these risks.

If Sakura Airi continued to be like this, without any interaction with anyone, then if she became the target of someone again, Fang Li might not be around, and a situation like the previous attack could become Sakura Airi's real nightmare.

And if more people paid attention to Sakura Airi, she wouldn't be subjected to persecution for being alone.

Therefore, Fang Li believed that Sakura Airi didn't need to live in secrecy.

More importantly, Fang Li knew that Sakura Airi was just shy and didn't actually enjoy being alone.

This girl also disliked loneliness and hoped to make friends.

With that in mind, Fang Li decided to give Sakura Airi a push.

"This isn't something to be ashamed of, just admit it honestly."

Fang Li openly confirmed this information in front of the entire class.

"Admit that you are Shizuku and currently working as a gravure idol."

Fang Li made a bold move, letting Sakura Airi know that she couldn't hide anymore and could only anxiously look at the whole class.

Unfortunately, all the students in the class were completely dumbfounded.

"Sakura-san?"

Kushida Kikyou approached Sakura Airi, expressing extreme surprise.

"Is this true? Are you really that Shizuku?"

Kushida Kikyou, representing the whole class, raised this important question.

Sakura Airi twisted her fingers, enduring the gaze of everyone in the class, and then looked at Fang Li's somewhat ambiguous expression before finally giving up. She took off her glasses.

"This..."

The students in the class widened their eyes.

It was evident that Sakura Airi's outstanding appearance without glasses, revealing her true identity, shocked everyone.

Ike Kanji and Yamauchi Haruki, holding the magazine cover, continuously compared Sakura Airi and Shizuku, staring at the faces that finally overlapped, their mouths hanging open.

Finally, Sakura Airi closed her eyes and lowered her head to the whole class.

"I'm... I'm sorry for hiding it from everyone."

This was probably the only thing Sakura Airi could say at the moment, right?

Apart from that, Sakura Airi had completely lost her words.

But that was enough.

No one would doubt Sakura Airi's true identity anymore.

"Wow!"

The entire Class D erupted into a commotion, like a roaring wave.

"We...we have an idol in our class!?"

"And it's Shizuku!?"

"This is unbelievable!"

The boys cheered collectively.

"Sakura-san! You kept it from us for so long!"

"I never expected you to be Shizuku!"

"Please shake hands with me!"

The girls gathered around Sakura Airi, excitedly chattering.

"Wow...wow..."

Sakura Airi was completely overwhelmed by the sudden surge of popularity around her.

As for Ike Kanji and Yamauchi Haruki, they ended up in a scuffle.

"Yamauchi! Didn't you say Sakura confessed to you before? That was a lie!"

"That...that wasn't a lie! It was true!"

"You're lying! Sakura is Shizuku! A super popular gravure idol! How could she confess to you!?"

"I...I didn't know about that!"

"Are you regretting it now? You rejected her confession just because Sakura seemed insignificant, but it turns out she's Shizuku!"

"Stop...stop it! Why are you shouting so loudly!? Someone might hear!"

"You're definitely lying!"

"I'm not!"

Ike Kanji and Yamauchi Haruki ended up in a scuffle.

"Sigh..."

Seeing the entire classroom turning into a market, Horikita Suzune sighed in astonishment.

"Now, it seems like there won't be any peace in the class for a while."

Ayanokouji Kiyotaka calmly made this analysis.

Fang Li, as if it had nothing to do with him, smirked and ignored the pleading look from Sakura Airi, who was engulfed by the crowd. He picked up a detective fiction novel and started reading.

Class D was completely engulfed in chaos.

It would take a while for things to calm down.
