The Obsessive Maniac Is Trying To Confine Me - Chapter 99
The inside of the hall froze.
Gilbert, who confidently tried to drive Shabrina down as a criminal, was embarrassed when she admitted it.
However, Shabrina took off her wig and calmly trimmed her messy pink hair as if this was fine.
Her flowing pink hair matched her red dress.
After admiring her beauty for a moment, Gilbert suddenly came to his senses.
“But what’s wrong with that?”
“What?”
“I haven’t committed any crime, have I done anything wrong? It’s just a matter of identity laundering, so I might do a little bit.”
What kind of new bullshit is that?
For a moment, Gilbert realized that it was a brave image as Shabrina threw off her mask, contrary to expectations.
Then, that’s right!
Is there no way to do something about this situation?
“If you’re not a criminal, there’s no reason to change your identity! Where are you talking nonsense now!”
Shabrina smiled as if she didn’t know.
That amazing attitude made his mood toward Shabrina worse.
“How dare you fool young Michelle and act as an aide on the subject of criminals!?”
“What do you mean fool? I just helped the abused girl.”
Shabrina still smiled and replied.
“Well, I don’t completely deny that I fool her. A lonely girl who has been abused is easy to bait.”
Everyone turned to Gilbert at the word abuse. For a moment, Gilbert’s face turned red.
“I, I…!”
Just when Gilbert, who had grown red and green, was about to shout, Michelle in the center jumped out.
Slap!
She slapped Shabrina’s cheek.
“You crazy girl.”
Michelle, who was angry, shouted.
“Count! Put this crazy girl in prison right now!”
“What are you doing! Lock up that crazy girl right now!”
When Michelle shouted, the Count immediately gave the order to the knights.
Soon, the knights came to the banquet hall.
And that’s how Shabrina was taken to prison.
The banquet hall was noisy with what had just happened.
“So the competent aide was actually a fraud?”
“Oh, my, what’s going on—”
Everyone talked loudly without missing out on this gossip.
Only Michelle, who is here, remained silent.
The aristocrats thought it was because she tried to control her anger.
Soon Michelle and the Count left the banquet hall.
Perhaps to punish Rosie, the nobles murmured that it was natural.
But the reality was different.
“I’m sorry.”
Michelle touched Rosie’s red cheek while she was crying.
“What should I do? Your face turned red.”
“I’m fine.”
“That’s why I told you not to your cheek!”
Rosie looked at Michelle, who was screaming back as if she were cute.
The Count, who entered the prison belatedly, handed Rosie his luggage at that time.
“I want to give both of you time to say goodbye, but we don’t have time. You must hurry.”
“….”
“You can just go through this secret passage. We’ve got a carriage outside, so it shouldn’t be hard to find.”
“Thank you.”
“Take it.”
The Count handed Rosie the robe.
Rosie immediately put on her robe and turned toward the secret passage the Count had told her.
“Rosie.”
Then Michelle called her.
“You said you’d tell me when you get back, but I knew your name in advance.”
Rosie’s eyes widened at Michelle’s words.
“That’s not my name.”
“What?”
The Count, who was listening, was quite surprised. How many alternate identities are there?
He thought it was unusual, but it really was.
“When I get back later, I will tell you my real name. It’s a bit of an odd name, so don’t be surprised.”
That’s my name in Korea.
…Of course, if you remember what my name was.
Michelle laughed happily.
“…I’m sorry for all this time.”
The Count left a brief message to Rosie, who was about to leave.
“And thank you so much.”
“….”
“If you need any help in the future, come to me anytime. I will never forget this grace.”
Rosie smiled at the two of them.
“Well, it’s nothing.”

After a while, a guest came from Evantes.
“Eh, the Marquis of Evantes himself—!”
When Argen reached the northern part, the nobles shouted in surprise.
“The Marquis of Evaantes would visit in person, so what did that woman do?”
“…I guess it’s not normal.”
Argen ignored the murmur of the nobles and immediately got to the point.
“So where is she?”
“For now, we put her in prison.”
“Guide me.”
Hearing Argen’s words, the Count went straight to the prison without saying a word.
But.
“Fire!”
“The prison is on fire!”
Suddenly, the sound of a prison fire rang out.
“What the hell is this!”
The bewildered Count exclaimed.
To put out the fire, the knights and maids ran fast with a bucket of water.
After a while, the fire that had spread widely was extinguished.
“…Will she make it through this?”
Someone muttered, but they closed their mouths with stinging eyes.
But the same was true with everyone. It was something that everyone thought so, even if they didn’t say it out loud.
The prison, which was engulfed in fire, was damaged beyond recognition.
Whoever was inside—.
“I’ll go inside, so get rid of anything that gets in the way.”
Argen gave an order by clicking his tongue at everyone.
“There is no need for the Marquis to go directly. I will now—”
“I won’t say it twice. I’m going to go inside and check it out.”
The Count followed the Marquis’ words, trying to hide his troubled expression.
And he cleared away any obstructions to getting inside.
As soon as he entered, the smell of smoke hit him.
Black ash was all over his face, which was quite disgusting.
“That—”
Shortly after that, a body that had been burned was found.
It was the prison where Rosie was locked up.
“The woman was—”
One of the soldiers murmured. That unconscious act was an unintentional testimony.
Argen approached and identified the body.
It was disgusting, but he looked at the corpse for a long time.
And says.
“Search around here.”
When Argen’s orders were given, the knights looked confused.
However, the Argen’s knights never questioned it twice.
The Count clicked his tongue at the sight.
<He’s a guy with a lot of suspicions. He probably won’t believe only the prepared fake corpses.>
As expected, he didn’t get tricked by the fake corpse.
But.
The Count left the prison and looked around at those around him.
Everyone except Argen believes Rosie is dead. So, the rumors will spread soon.
That’s what happened.
He did everything he could for her.
He hopes that she’ll be safe.

The carriage ran.
The snow-covered landscape passed quickly through the window.
The sight made me laugh. I feel like I’m moving away quickly from those tiresome things.
I didn’t even know that Argen was looking for me. I wonder how they check that I run away from Marquis Evantes.
So, I took off my mask in the banquet hall.
And I know.
Rosie, who they knew to be Shabrina, was dead.
Both Evantes and Richard are finished.
‘Now let’s quietly change my identity and go back to Michelle’s side.’
At that time, I wouldn’t go out in public as I do now.
I’ll just dye my hair, change my eye color, and stay behind Michelle with a different look.
At that thought, a happy smile erupted from my mouth.
It was then.
Bang!
The carriage shook violently.
“Ack!”
As my body leaned forward for a moment, I quickly grabbed the carriage.
My heart raced at the thought that I was about to fall forward and be seriously injured.
“It’s an attack!”
The knight outside shouted.
What do you mean by an attack?
I wiped the dusty windows and hurriedly looked outside.
I could see the white thing protruding from the window, terrifyingly sprinting toward the knights.
Clank!
I could hear the two blades’ intense sound clashing inside the carriage.
“…Richard.”
I muttered his name reflexively.
‘I have to get off the back of the carriage.’
There was no way the knights could defeat Richard.
Soon, Richard, who defeated the knights, comes rushing into the carriage.
I slid down the carriage’s back door. and ran
No, I tried to run.
“Cough!”
If it wasn’t for the sound of the knight collapsing and spitting blood violently.
I felt a chill on the back of my neck.
Did he beat all the knights in such a short time—?
No way—.
However, when I turned around to check, I saw the knights who had fallen bleeding around first.
I couldn’t see everything because it was covered by the carriage, but—.
“Shabrina.”
Then Richard called my name, and I came to my sense.
Before I knew it, the man was approaching me.
Just when did he—.
“No, do you want me to call you Rosie?”
I was at a loss for words and took a step back to get away from the man, but the man strode towards me.
The moment I was about to fall over because my legs lost strength, the man grabbed my waist and pulled me in.
“Now it is your turn.”
“W, what?”
“Now you can’t go anywhere without my permission.”
