Lady Rose wa Heimin ni Naritai - Vol. 3 Ch. 16

[catbot158]

I remember someone early on spoiled who L is, but I won't say it because I'm not sure if it is true, but if it is, then all I'll say is this:

Spoiler

Didn't see that coming, did you, Detective Baker?

 

[Haven1011]

from someone who has read the novel, can we get a hit as to who L is? who is our cake loving detective here?

 

[Svelandria]

@mage_goo You got me in that regard. I should probably clarify that my knowledge isn't the most accurate since I'm not a history buff or anything, as such please take my words with a grain of salt. With that said, I will say that, as restricted as books were back in that age, commoners did typically have at least some limited access to books. However, it largely depended on the type of books, and if I remember correctly most books were limited to religious texts and other similar stories that had some kind of moral or spiritual teaching(Some fictional, others factual, and some that were believed factual but are likely fictional in hindsight). That, of course, doesn't include the many history books that were commissioned throughout the years since antiquity. Ultimately, however, it depended on whether or not someone was literate, which most commoners weren't. Those that were literate among commoners were scribes, scholars, and religious figures. As such, it makes sense that a nun would be somewhat literate and thus would have read some stories, either out of obligation if they were religious stories or for recreational purposes, such as if a merchant happened to have a few books among their wares. Hard to say for certain within this specific context of this manga since nuns are normally supposed to leave "earthly possessions" behind and are not supposed to seek out anything that doesn't further their devotion to god, but it's very possible that Nana may have a bit more freedom than normal nuns and thus is likely allowed to seek out more earthly desires, such as owning things and going to markets to buy books and whatnot.

welp novel updates died so I can't read ahead, anyone got any spoilers?

 

[winkookchurro]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, I just binged and the very last chapter is the one where she's like " My last days of peaceful bliss is today" end scene.

 

[Eraviel]

Uhm, this is just me, but Nana saying that "it's just like a game" sounds like a red herring to me.

Please tell me I'm wrong.

 

[Keansor]

Fi did you completely forget the last time you talked to her you saw her drop the "overly cheery and bubbly" act? Like, when she's being bubbly to this degree it's clearly forced, y'know?
Also, Fi herself noted that she's not sure why Nana knows about Nika's features (silver hair) and wondered if she'd ever met him before.

 

[maricc]

Another cliffhanger owemji!
Thanks for the chapter, I can't wait to see what will happen next chapter!

 

[knight_evangel]

so glad im not the only one enjoying the detective story. lol

 

[MegaXL]

Ah the dense protagonist - a standard trope.
also anyone who's paid some attention to previous chapters would know who L is.
(or if they read the novel chapters prior to this point in the manga)

 

[Khulmach]

Really, it just looks like everything bad is in her head.
She seems like a pessimist.

 

[Gooseknonopeace]

@MegaXL who is it?

 

[justanotherrandomhehe]

To be honest, I kind of suspect

Spoiler

Michelle. I don’t think Nana-chan is L because she hasn’t seen FL before, she looks about the same age or younger as FL and also probably didn’t know of the circumstances but it is kind of sus she said game which was maybe not known in this world Michelle however immediately took FL in after her just arriving in the city and gave her a week off on ‘intuition’

 

[macroblitz]

Well I am also guessing. But L is Nana of course.

Based on her facial expression about her circumstances and her knowledge.

 

[emilyandersons]

i am pretty sure evan is L but i’m not sure because i read the saws and google translated but it wasn’t very accurate and i think there are two Ls?? i’m not sure so we’ll see i think L will be revealed after a few chaps

 

[firosahoge]

Honestly I suck at detective stories but I’ll place my bets that L is Lily-chan

 

[Miyono-chan]

I bet it's the old man from the vegetables stall

 

[Sheepholata]

It does feel like

Spoiler

Nana-Chan is both the real Liliana and L. Maybe they swapped places when they were kids

No idea though
