Noir…
It is the name of an ancient fate.
Two maidens who govern death.
The peace of the newly born,
their black hands protect.
Go ahead, Mireille. Do it.
Thank you for putting up with me until today.
[The Black Thread of Fate]
Balsan is dead.
The great revolutionary, Balsan,
was killed by the assassin that you bastards hired!
Oh, how can this be?! The great Balsan! Our Balsan!
Talk! Who did you bastards hire?!
Noir…
A name that ranks at the very top
of all who make a living off murder.
We know nothing of him except the name.
Noir?!
But Noir is indeed the servant of God.
You defiled this land with blood in the name of revolution!
And Balsan paid the price for it!
We have to walk once we get beyond the Aramera River.
How are you going to manage that in your condition?
If we don’t cross the river by four o’clock,
the chopper we arranged for will have departed.
Bringing down your target isn’t enough to make you a pro.
You’re not a pro until you’ve made a clean getaway.
You know that as well as I.
Does it hurt?
No, I’m fine.
If only you’d just died, I would have been free of you.
You’re right.
I’ve heard of the name Noir.
From back when you were working in the Pakistani underground?
Yeah, I hear he’s more terrifying than the Grim Reaper.
The Grim Reaper?
The Grim Reaper, is he? Fine then.
I’ll find Noir, even if it costs me my life,
and put him through the tortures of Hell!
We’ll drag the Grim Reaper out into the desert sun!
Mireille, that student ID…
I think I lost the student ID when I got shot.
I was carrying it with me. I just couldn’t throw it away.
It wasn’t… It wasn’t even real.
It wasn’t even the real me or anything, but…
Be quiet.
Now isn’t the time for that.
When I came to, I was here.
My name, my records, all lies.
Who am I?
I am Noir.
Beyond that, I know nothing.
But…
Even if it was a lie, it was in my hands.
It was mine.
I might still be able to make it.
If I go alone…
Did anyone see anything?!
Stop!
Hurry up and open the door!
Show us your ID! Hurry up!
What the hell is this?!
Hurry up and open the trunk!
Stop! Hey! You too!
Hurry up!
Go ahead, Mireille. Do it.
Thank you for putting up with me until today.
Now hurry.
You’ve got to be kidding me.
Did you think to take the easy way out alone?
I couldn’t care less about who you really are.
I have questions for the bastards in the Soldats.
I’ll never let you die until I find out who they are.
When I find that out,
I will kill you.
Yeah, I’d forgotten.
Did you find anything?!
Hey, look at this.
What the hell?!
Here.
Hey, there’s the guy!
It’s a woman?!
She’s hurt!
She’s still a kid!
What’s this?
Yes, I understand, Sir!
A pilgrimage to your past and mine.
But they’re not spending their money right.
What? You mean HQ’s comm gear?
Well, my girlfriend has this cell phone…
Cell phone?
Yeah, it’s real high fidelity. Better than HQ’s.
I bet the rate’s higher too.
Hey…
It is the name of an ancient fate.
Two maidens who govern death.
To the depths of Hell’s fire,
their black souls lure the lost children.
This is the Grim Reaper?
There’s no doubt she has something to do with Noir.
This little girl?!
This girl has the scent of death about her.
She’s…
What’s that?
It was on the floor of the east corridor.
It’s your picture.
Kirika Yumura…
I’m told that’s what the card says.
Is that your real name? Or is it an alias?
Why do you use an alias?! Are you a friend of Noir?!
Confess to all your sins.
You’ll be burning in the fires of Hell anyway.
Is that card so precious to you?! Well?!
You bastards killed Balsan! You filthy assassins murdered Balsan!
You shameless demon!
You bastard! You bastards!
Nothing unusual over here.
Hi!
Is she dead?
No, I’ll only kill her after she’s suffered pain
as if her entire body had turned into burning sand.
What about her friend?
The friend was spotted in town at 17:30.
There’s already a squad headed there.
I’ll check.
What’s wrong?
No one’s answering. What’s wrong?
No one’s answering.
What?
Is it the government military?
No way! We’d have been informed of any changes in their activity.
You guys go too!
Noir… nom…
Nom… jadis…
Let me tell you something.
Noir is a name for two.
Noir…
That’s right, an assassination unit made up of two people.
Noir… It is… the name… of… two… death…
What’s she saying?!
Noir… It is the name of an ancient fate.
Two maidens who govern death.
What is she talking about?
Is it a prayer?
The peace of the newly born,
their black hands protect.
In the end, a lie is a lie.
I knew that.
I thought I had understood that from the beginning.
Mireille…
Who am I?
The thread that binds you and I together…
The color of that thread is sure to be black.
A pitch-black thread, blacker than the darkness.
