Just as Yinhu guessed, Hideki's shadow clone had indeed been watching the situation nearby to avoid any setbacks.
As for explosives and the like, he had easily found them last night when he used the modified radar device to conduct a large-scale investigation.
The chakra contained in the special detonating talisman used as a timing device was as obvious as a firefly in the dark under the perception of the high-precision radar. How could he miss it?
Just as Yinhu couldn't understand how Hideki found his real body through the shadow clone.
He thought the trap was foolproof, but in Hideki's eyes it was also full of loopholes.
No matter how careful Yinhu was, he couldn't guard against things beyond his cognitive range.
Under the dimensionality reduction attack of the time traveler Hideki, his defeat was actually doomed...
Hideki's shadow clone shook his head and smiled, and seeing that his mission was completed, he also turned into white smoke and disappeared with a bang.
The rest of the finishing work will be left to the real body that is about to arrive to complete...
...
In the forest not far from where the children are imprisoned.
Because she didn't know the exact scale of the explosion, just in case, Nonou ran a long distance before stopping, looking back with a complicated expression.
Yinhu was dead.
Only then did she have time to digest this fact, but she still didn't feel much reality.
She didn't expect that Yinhu, who had always cherished his life and was cautious, would lose his life so easily.
And it seemed that the one who killed him was most likely Kimura Hideki, who was smiling all day and treating people kindly.
This made Nonou feel a chill in her heart.
Because at this moment, she was facing a similar situation as Yinhu...
"Sister... Nonou, why hasn't the explosion you mentioned happened yet?"
Atla, who was on the side, was pressing his knees and panting, but couldn't help asking.
The other children also nodded repeatedly, their faces becoming more suspicious.
"Actually, I don't know much either. I heard about the explosion from the people in the den..."
Nono smiled bitterly with a headache.
Yes, she didn't escape alone, but brought all the children out.
Because time was running out, she finally had to remove the veil and reveal her true face.
Of course, she didn't tell the truth, she just said that Hideki asked her to come here to save people.
Although this statement is still very suspicious.
Fortunately, after showing her face, her super affinity with children's special attacks finally worked, and everyone chose to leave there with her first.
However, the children did not completely dispel their doubts.
It was just that in their opinion, even if Sister Nono had ulterior motives and was taken away by her, they believed that Brother Hideki would find them back sooner or later.
But if she was telling the truth and an explosion really happened, even Brother Hideki might not be able to revive them.
But now that they have run so far, the so-called explosion has not happened.
This makes the balance in everyone's hearts tilt towards suspicion again...
Everyone silently stepped back a few steps, and Mikazuki even clenched the pepper balls for throwing, ready to throw them at Nono's feet at any time, and then take everyone away.
Nono was a little helpless when she saw this.
The moment she untied the veil, she already knew that her mission had failed.
Even if she could fool the children, she could not fool Kimura Hideki himself.
However, Nono did not feel frustrated, but felt relieved.
That's good...
Although she will be severely punished after returning to the roots, she shouldn't lose her life.
The most important thing is that she doesn't have to go against her conscience and continue to secretly harm the orphanage.
Even if it's just a cover-up, it's a difficult decision that Nono made with all her courage.
The problem now is that Kimura Hideki should be rushing here.
She doesn't think that he will let her go easily after knowing her identity.
But this is still a dangerous forest area, and she is a little worried if she leaves the children here...
Fortunately, Nono doesn't have to worry about it anymore.
Because at this moment, a familiar voice sounded:
"So you're here. I've been looking for you for so long."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hideki appeared beside the children.
"Brother Hideki!"
As soon as the children saw Hideki, they surrounded him with tears in their eyes.
"Thank you for your hard work this time, but the matter has been completely resolved. Don't worry anymore."
Hideki patted everyone's head one by one to show his approval, and then looked at Nono who was quietly retreating, and said with a smile:
"It's also hard for you, Miss Nono, to bring everyone here."
Nono stopped immediately, feeling bitter.
It's over...
Even the powerful Tora lost to the other party. She, who has never been good at fighting, didn't think she had any chance of escaping.
The other party didn't turn hostile on the spot, probably because he was concerned about the children.
Sure enough, Hideki took out a box of cheese pizza from somewhere and said:
"You should be hungry, so take this to fill your stomach first."
"After you go back, Aunt Kelly and everyone should have prepared a sumptuous meal for you."
But everyone was not as happy as Hideki imagined.
"Why is it cheese pizza again..."
"Brother Hideki, you've been sending us cheese pizza every day these days, and we're tired of it."
"Yeah, at least you should change the taste, like pineapple pizza..."
Nono, who was standing by, felt a chill in her heart.
She was certainly not Italian.
The reason for this was that being able to secretly deliver food to the children meant that Hideki had already found their location.
Obviously, he wanted to kill Yinhu, the mastermind behind the scenes, so he left the children as bait...
So, the explosion Yinhu mentioned did not happen, and it was also lifted by this guy a long time ago.
Nono couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Yinhu was still being controlled by Hideki until his death...
The hungry children were picky, but soon they rushed to eat the pizza.
And Hideki took the opportunity to walk towards Nono and said:
"Ms. Nono, let's talk aside."
Finally...
Nono nodded with a heavy heart and followed Hideki to the forest beside.
On the way, she looked at Hideki's back and struggled in her heart, constantly thinking about what the success rate of running away was now.
But the results made her quite desperate every time.
As if she was walking to the execution ground, this not-too-long road was long and short in Nono's heart.
Seeing that her life was about to come to an end, Nono's mind could not help but emerge with many memories.
From the life of a wandering orphan who had memories, the cruel training of the roots, and the various different lives after becoming a spy.
Looking back, although it was very short, the life in the orphanage and the days when she became an anchor to broadcast the news to everyone were the best time in her life...
As a spy destined to deceive and betray, being able to put an end to her life in this way may have been a blessing from God.
Satisfied?
No, in fact, it was more that the struggle between the mission and conscience had made her exhausted, and she just wanted to end it as soon as possible.
So when they were out of sight of the children, Nono said frankly:
"Since you've caught me in the act, I have no excuse."
"I only have one small request."
"Please don't tell the children in the orphanage my true identity. Just say I'm quitting my job."
Then Nono added in his heart:
I really don't want to see anyone feel sad because of my betrayal...
