Naruto: I'm really not an evil scientist!

"The Gn combat backpack is not complicated to operate. It is not much different from the backpacks you used before. You just need to familiarize yourself with how to use the various weapons on it."

These weapons utilize energy manipulation technology from scientific ninjutsu; with proper training, you can master them.

Hiruko encouraged them, "I believe you will become the best pilots, just like ninjas become top masters through continuous training."

After the explanation, Hiruko prepared to leave the SMS base.

As he passed by Alto Saotome, he used his scientific ninjutsu to leave a tiny energy mark on Alto, then patted Alto on the shoulder and said meaningfully, "Alto, Ranka's safety depends entirely on you. I remember during the first Vajra invasion, you were the one who risked your life to protect Ranka. I have high hopes for you..."

Alte was stunned for a moment, then his face turned red, and he immediately began to explain, "Don't talk nonsense!" What a joke! The sister-obsessed captain is in a fit of anger right now. Hiruko is just pushing him into a fire! Ozma Lee, who was standing to the side, widened his eyes when he heard Hiruko's words. He stared at Alte fiercely and secretly decided to increase Alte's training intensity to the highest Nightmare level.

Looking at Ozma and Alto's expressions, Hiruko couldn't help but smile faintly. He used his scientific ninjutsu to conceal his figure, turned around and left the SMS base, leaving only a mysterious silhouette.

As Art watched Hiruko's departing figure and felt the murderous intent emanating from behind, he couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Hiruko, you're not even human!" Catherine took Hiruko to the parking lot of the SMS base, and as usual, she would take him back to his hotel.

In the enclosed parking lot, the air was filled with a faint smell of engine oil, and the occasional roar of the Vf fighter jet engines could be heard.

However, when they arrived at the parking lot, they were surprised to find that Sheryl had not left.

Her slender figure appeared particularly lonely in the dim light. She leaned against a black car with her arms crossed, her long golden hair cascading down like a waterfall, obscuring half of her face and making it impossible to see her expression.

Catherine keenly sensed that Sheryl seemed to have something to say to Hiruko. She smiled calmly and said to Hiruko, "Mr. Hiruko, it seems Miss Sheryl has something to say to you. I'll get in the car and wait for you." With that, she turned and walked to the driver's seat, leaving Hiruko and Sheryl alone.

Hiruko walked up to Sheryl and used his scientific ninjutsu to sense the fluctuations in her heart. He asked softly, "Sheryl, is something the matter?" Sheryl looked up, her sapphire-like eyes filled with complex emotions: gratitude, worry, and an indescribable longing, perhaps mixed with a trace of fear and unease.

She bit her lower lip lightly, hesitated for a moment as if struggling with something inside, and then said in a slightly trembling voice, "I want to...I want to ask you if you know anything about my manager, Grace?"

Hiruko looked at Sherry and understood.

Clearly, his earlier questioning of Sheryl about her situation during the meeting, and his mention of someone secretly watching the orchid, had already aroused her suspicion.

Sherry's intuition told her that Hiruko must know more, some truths hidden behind the fog.

He nodded slightly, using his scientific ninjutsu to make his voice even calmer, and said in a composed tone, "Sheryl, I do know some things about Grace O'Connor."

But the truth revealed through scientific ninjutsu might shock you, or even be hard to accept.

Sherry took a deep breath, her eyes hardening: "Whatever it is, I want to know the truth."

Please tell me.

Hiruko gazed at Sheryl and slowly asked, "Miss Sheryl, are you familiar with the code name 'Fairy-9'?"

Sherry's face turned pale instantly. She subconsciously bit her lower lip, a hint of fear and unease flashing in her eyes. In the end, she nodded weakly.

"Fairy - 9" is the code name she was given, a symbol representing her special identity and mission, as well as the secret she least wanted to touch in her heart.

Hiruko's bluntness made Sherry realize that he had seen through everything.

He knew that Sheryl and Grace's purpose in coming to the former fleet was not simply touring, but to find the entity codenamed "Q1".

In fact, Sheryl's understanding of this mission was also very limited.

All she knew was that "Q1" was a very important target, and finding "Q1" was their primary task for this trip.

As for what "Q1" actually is, and who the forces behind Grace are, she has no idea.

But Hiruko seemed to know everything about it, and he even directly pointed out her code name, which made her feel deeply uneasy.

Hiruko looked at Sheryl straight in the eye and said, "I can tell you more, and who exactly is behind Grace, but I've analyzed it using scientific ninjutsu. Are you sure you want to know? As far as I know, your manager raised you from childhood, so she's like your adoptive mother."

"When facing a mother-like figure, can you face her unknown side?" Sheryl fell silent, struggling internally, wondering whether to choose to escape or face it. In the parking lot, the lights shone on Hiruko and Sheryl, casting long shadows of them.

The air was thick with tension and anticipation, as if time itself had stood still.

Sheryl's long, slender fingers gripped her clothes tightly, her knuckles turning white.

Deep within her heart, a fierce struggle was raging.

Finally, Sherry raised her head and looked at Hiruko, her eyes filled with determination: "Please tell me the truth! I want to know!" Hiruko gazed into Sherry's determined sapphire eyes and couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration.

As expected of the fairy of the galaxy, Queen Sheryl, she was able to maintain a strong heart and unwavering determination even when faced with the cruel truth.

He took a deep breath and used his scientific ninjutsu to bring the scene from his memory to life, and slowly recounted: "Miss Sherry, do you know that when your grandmother, Mao-Nom, was researching V bacteria, she had an assistant besides Miss Orchid's mother?"

Sherry was slightly taken aback. She knew very little about her grandmother's research work when she was a child, and had never heard that her grandmother had any other assistants.

Hiruko continued, "That assistant is named Grace Godunova, who is also your current agent, Grace O'Connor."

Sheryl's pupils contracted sharply, and she covered her mouth in disbelief, letting out a gasp: "What?! This... how is this possible?" "Grace Godunova was also one of the survivors of the tragedy of the Vajra attack on the 117th Fleet."

However, she was severely injured and almost lost all bodily functions.

Hiruko paused, then used scientific ninjutsu to simulate the scene, and continued, "Afterwards, she was rescued by the Galaxy Fleet and underwent prosthetic surgery."

The Galaxy Fleet used advanced scientific ninjutsu and medical technology to create a new body for her.

From then on, Grace Godunova became Grace O'Connor.

She then found you, abandoned, in the Galaxy fleet, and raised you to adulthood.

Hiruko's tone became even more serious, and he slowly said, "The Galaxy Fleet also obtained some intelligence about Vajra research from Grace."

Some of them, after learning of Vajra's existence, used their scientific ninjutsu-like analytical thinking to develop the idea of ​​controlling Vajra.

Through their research, they discovered that infected individuals carrying Vajra can control it through singing.

And you, Miss Sheryl, are precisely the second-best choice these people have made.

Hiruko continued, "And the 'Q1' they've been searching for all this time..." He paused deliberately, using his scientific ninjutsu to observe Sheryl's reaction, "Sheryl, you should have guessed who it is by now, right?"

Sherry took a deep breath, trying to remain calm, and then slowly said, "It's Orchid, isn't it?" Hiruko nodded: "That's right, 'Q1' refers to Orchid-Li."

She is a congenital Vajra infection patient and has a stronger ability to control Vajra.

The Galaxy Fleet learned of this using their scientific ninjutsu detection techniques; she will become their next target.

Sherry's body trembled slightly. She gripped her arm, a chill running from her feet straight to her heart.

Her singing voice, which she had always been proud of, had become a tool for others to control her.

Looking into Sheryl's sapphire-like eyes, filled with shock and sorrow, Hiruko sighed softly and used his scientific ninjutsu to make his voice soothing, saying, "Miss Sheryl, I must remind you that all of this is just my speculation using scientific ninjutsu. There is currently no conclusive evidence to prove that what I said is true."

Chapter 477

Upon hearing this, Sherry suddenly laughed, her laughter filled with bitterness and helplessness: "Now that things have come to this, you're telling me not to take it seriously? The things you've said are more and more horrifying than the last. How can you expect me to ignore them?"

Hiruko looked at Sheryl, his calm gaze, typical of a research ninja, hardening. He leaned forward slightly, his voice steady and powerful: "Sheryl, if you want to verify whether what I said is true or false, it's actually very simple."

Sheryl looked up, her sapphire-blue eyes filled with confusion, staring intently at Hiruko: "What do you mean?"

Hiruko gently pushed up the specially made scientific glasses on the bridge of his nose, his eyes behind the lenses revealing wisdom, and explained, "The week after next is the last day of your concert tour. Now that the Galaxy Fleet has discovered Miss Orchid's whereabouts, they certainly won't stand idly by and let you and Grace leave the fleet."

Those high-ranking officials have always resorted to any means necessary for the sake of the so-called "big picture".

"At that point, they will definitely try every means to keep you in the convoy, perhaps using all sorts of seemingly reasonable reasons, or even threatening you with force."

Sherry's heart skipped a beat. She felt a chill rise from the soles of her feet and instantly realized that what Hiruko had said was not an exaggeration.

If the Galaxy Fist really wants to make a move on Orchid, then the end of her concert is the perfect time for them to act.

At that time, Hiruko continued, his voice steady and confident, "Whether my words are true or false will be obvious at a glance."

As a research ninja, I possess a unique insight into various conspiracies and situations.

Sherry kept her head down in silence. The truth that Hiruko had revealed was like a boulder, stirring up a storm in her once calm heart, leaving her unable to process it for a while.

Now that things have come to this, she can only choose to trust Hiruko and wait for the concert to end to see if things will develop as he predicted.

Hiruko noticed Sheryl's emotional fluctuations. As a research ninja, he knew that she needed time and space to sort out her thoughts.

He gently patted her shoulder, a gesture with the precision and tenderness characteristic of a research ninja, gesturing for her to get in the car: "Miss Sheryl, it's getting late. I'll have Catherine take you home to rest first."

Sherry nodded slightly and silently got into the back seat of the car driven by Catherine.

The car was filled with a faint scent of perfume, mixed with the unique aroma emanating from the leather seats, but it did nothing to dispel the gloom in Sheryl's heart.

Throughout the journey, Sherry remained silent, staring blankly at the fleeting street scenes outside the window, her mind constantly echoing with Hiruko's words.

Grace's deception, the Galaxy Fleet's conspiracy, and the secrets hidden within her own body act like heavy shackles, binding her tightly.

Hiruko felt a pang of pity seeing Sherry's distraught state.

He reached out and gently stroked Sheryl's head, a gesture rarely seen in a research ninja, his tone as tender as if he were talking to a child: "Sheryl, please don't forget what I said before, I will protect everyone's safety, and you are one of them."

As a research ninja, I possess many unique skills and knowledge, enabling me to handle various unexpected situations.

Hiruko's words were like a ray of sunshine, piercing through the gloom in Sheryl's heart.

She raised her head, looked at Beiliuhu's resolute face, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

Yes, she is no longer alone. She has her friends from SMS, as well as Catherine and Orchid. They are all her friends who will fight alongside her and face the challenges of the future together.

Sheryl pushed Hiruko's hand away, turned her head and said to him, "You're treating me like a child. I'm Sheryl Nom, the fairy of the galaxy!"

Hiruko glanced at Sheryl's profile and knew she had reverted to her usual haughty queen self. As a research ninja, he admired Sheryl's strong and independent character, so he withdrew his hand, leaned back in his chair, and pretended to doze off.

Sherry glanced at Hiruko's profile out of the corner of her eye and whispered, "Thank you." Catherine, who was driving the car in front, smiled and shook her head. She had obviously heard Sherry's thanks, but Hiruko didn't react at all, as if he were really asleep.

The car came to a smooth stop in front of the hotel where Sherry was staying. Hiruko opened the car door and escorted Sherry out of the car.

The night breeze gently caressed Sheryl's blonde hair, carrying the faint scent of her perfume into Hiruko's nostrils, stirring his heartstrings.

Sherry stood at the hotel entrance, then suddenly stopped and turned to face Hiruko.

Her sapphire-blue eyes sparkled beautifully in the moonlight, and a sweet smile played on her lips as she said, "Hiruko, thank you for bringing me back."

Hiruko was slightly taken aback; this was the first time Sherry had addressed him so intimately.

Previously, she had neither addressed him as Mr. Hiruko like others, nor had she called him by his name directly.

“Miss Sherry, you’re too kind. It was just a small favor,” Hiruko said with a smile, a smile that carried the composure unique to a research ninja.

Sheryl suddenly stepped forward, opened her arms, and hugged Hiruko tightly.

Her soft body pressed against Hiruko's chest, and Hiruko could feel the throbbing and warmth of Sherry's heart.

"Hiruko." Sheryl's voice rang in Hiruko's ear, with a hint of coquetry, "Next time we meet, I hope you can tell me more about my grandmother." Sheryl released Hiruko, gave him a mischievous smile, and turned to walk into the hotel before Hiruko could reply.

Hiruko watched Sherry's departing figure.

He shook his head, his face suddenly changing from a melancholy expression to this. He turned and got back into the car, saying to Catherine, "Miss Catherine, let's go." Catherine started the car and slowly drove away from the hotel.

As Shirley watched the departing car through the hotel window, her heart pounded wildly.

After saying goodbye to Sheryl, Hiruko got into the car driven by Catherine, but this time he chose the passenger seat instead.
