Chapter 12

Traitor, Part 2 (内通者②) is the twelfth chapter of The Promised Neverland.

Synopsis
Emma continues to investigate whether Gilda is really the spy between them when she is called to talk to Krone. The identity of the true spy is finally revealed.

Plot
It seems that Krone always saw Gilda with a troubled face, and thus she offered her a counselling session in the middle of the night. Gilda met with Krone to say that there is nothing wrong with her, but Krone lets out a question about Gilda knowing everything just to trick her and have her spill the beans. Gilda avoids the trick and the counselling session ended.

Norman and Ray come to the conclusion that Krone is moving independently from Mama, opposing her, when they saw her looking for the targets.

Emma is doing something weird, counting her footsteps in the hallway.

Norman couldn't find the extra ropes underneath his bed. Ray says that settles it and that Don is the spy. Norman says no and that the real spy is him, Ray.
