Is the insider really Gilda?

出典 : Amazon.co.jp

Norman has begun to suspect that there is an insider among the children who is passing information to Isabella. You’re wondering who in the world is the inside man. If they are spying on you of their own volition, I’m still suspicious of Don and Gilda, who are the elders.

However, if they were genuinely spying on Isabella by tricking her, it could be the younger ones. For some reason, it was Gilda who was first suspected by the readers to be an insider. The following is a summary of why Gilda was suspected to be an insider and who she was.

Sister Krone’s eyes

Sister Crone had been ordered by Isabella to keep an eye on the entire group of children. At this point, Crone was working to identify the suspects, as she was determined to somehow outsmart Isabella and improve her position. The means he used to do this was to play tag with the children.

Krone personally measured the children’s abilities and narrowed down the suspects by coming into contact with them during the game of tag. The three candidates are the “full score”. This conclusion is predictable, as not many kids are capable of realizing the House’s secrets and being able to fight information warfare with Isabella.

However, Krone, who had been observing the three of them after the game of tag, gave Gilda a look with a psychological description of “And one more…”. Could this meaningful look be the one that suspects Gilda of being a suspect, or is it a look that convinces Isabella to spy on her? Crone’s actions caused readers to whisper the theory that Gilda was an insider.

Norman sets a trap for Gilda and Don

After Emma and her friends discuss it, they decide to include the elder Gilda and Don in the preparations for the prison break plan. However, since Gilda and Don are suspected to be insiders, Norman decides to set a trap for them. The idea is to hide the ropes needed for their escape in different places and give them both the information they need to escape.

If only the rope that he gave to Gilda is missing, then it is determined that it was Gilda who gave the information to Isabella. But neither of the two ropes had disappeared. That means that the two of them did not pass information to Isabella. Emma is relieved that Gilda and Don aren’t on the inside.

But here’s where things start to change quickly. In the middle of the night, Gilda, who has been sleeping in the same room as Emma, sneaks out of the room alone. Gilda, looking down at the sleeping Emma suspiciously, reminds me of an insider. This scene ended the second volume, episode 11, so the theory of Gilda’s insider became even stronger among readers.

Gilda is in Krone’s room…

In fact, when Gilda left the bedroom, Emma was up too. Unaware that Emma was secretly following her, Gilda had turned to Crone’s private room. As Emma listens outside the door, she despairs that Gilda, who has been so kind to her, may have been all false. But what Gilda says in Crone’s room is not what Emma expected. Gilda told Crone that she had no worries.

In fact, Crone wanted a pawn to outwit Isabella, and Gilda was the target of his solicitation. Her visit to Crone’s room was also due to her persistence in urging Gilda to “talk to me if you have a problem”.

Here Gilda’s innocence was completely proven. Gilda’s dubious expressions scattered throughout the work and Krone’s actions were all misleading in the author’s mind. So the readers who were pushing the theory of Gilda’s insider have been playing right into the author’s hands.

The real insider has been discovered!

Just when Gilda is relieved to be proven not to be an insider, the true identity of the insider is revealed. The real insider is, unexpectedly, Ray. The fact that he didn’t show his tail at all is what you’d expect of a full score. However, it was Norman, also a Full Score, who found out who it was, so it makes sense.

In fact, Gilda and Don weren’t the only ones who were trapped in the rope trap that Norman suggested. Besides these two, he also suspected Ray, who he thought would be the most troublesome enemy. He must have realized this because he was Norman, who had the top brains among the “full score” and was a calm and observant man.

Gilda, who was introduced here, also had the fourth highest brain in the House, although it was inferior to Norman’s, and had excellent judgment and observation skills. With Gilda’s abilities similar to Norman’s, who is probably the highest-specification person in the production, it’s understandable that the author set up a misleading story.

Summary

That’s the summary of information about Gilda, the glasses honor student character from “The Promised Never Land”. Gilda is an honors student with glasses, and she was often portrayed as being somewhat shady. When the theory of her being an insider came out, readers were the first to suspect her of being an insider, but her true nature was that she was an excellent girl who cared for her family, just like Emma and the others. Gilda was not very noticeable in the beginning of the story, but as the story progresses, she becomes more attractive, so if you are interested in her, please check out the original manga.
