"Noir..." "It is the name of an ancient fate." "Two maidens who govern death." "The peace of the newly born, their black hands protect." "Five, six, seven..." "Oh, it's Papa!" "I'm home, Henri." "Papa, welcome back!" "Hello, Dear." "You're early today." "Yeah, I finished my work earlier than I expected." "Louis sure is sleeping well." "He was being awful until just a minute ago." "He wouldn't stop crying." "Really?" "Oh yeah, Henri, tomorrow, let's go together to buy that game you wanted." "Really?" "!" "All right!" "Isn't that great?" "It's a job." "What should we do?" "Well, let's look into it." "Bored?" "Come on, let's head home." "O benevolent God, through the death and resurrection of Your own son, Christ," "You bestowed upon the faithful the hope of eternal life and resurrection." "Allow those laid to rest today to rest in peace until the day of resurrection." "May they receive the joy of eternal life through Christ, who is our life and resurrection." "I need to talk to you." "In the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ." "Then we can go back to the Public Peace Department..." "No, let's talk in my car." "Amen." "The man that was killed was an officer of the National MP Anti-Terrorist Unit." "I hate that we can only say to the public that he was a policeman, when he was a hero who gave his life for his country." "I feel the same." "This is the third man." "The first two were petty officers of GIGN." "And now a commissioned officer." "How the hell did they find out the identity of the GIGN members?" "Vice-Chief, you don't think..." "We cannot deny the possibility that the information was leaked from our department." "For our part, at the very least, I would like to have a report readied for the Ministry of National Defense." "Is that clear?" "I understand." "I will begin the investigation immediately." "With absolute secrecy." "Yes, Sir." "I hope that our fears turn out to be unfounded." "I shall also pray that it is so." "There we go." "All's well with the world, I guess." "Would you get that knife for me?" "Sure." "Here." "Thank you." "That's our daily bread." "In other words, Heaven's blessing." "Why don't you eat it as though you're enjoying it more?" "I am enjoying it." "You don't look it at all." "Really?" "Yes, really." "You don't remember anything about yourself." "What about me?" "Mireille Bouquet, a most trustworthy assassin for hire." "I see." "Then shall we move on to the more important topic?" "I know you found more than just this gun." "You have one more thing that you're hiding." "Take it out." "Thanks to you, we were able to execute those dogs." "Those three dogs of GIGN." "There's no fool like a ferocious dog that's loyal to his master." "You're contributing towards the future of France, a true patriot." "And the money?" "The usual." "More importantly, what about the Public Peace Department?" "Don't worry." "I am with you." "I'm counting on you, comrade." "I'll see you here again next week." "Our target is Director of France's National Public Peace Department," "Jean Jacques Legrand." "And..." "Key officer in the leading faction of the People's Armed Alliance, a far right terrorist organization, Pierre Cressoy." "So Legrand sold GIGN's roster to this guy." "And in return, he got information from Cressoy and improved his conviction rate." "Our client is another faction of the People's Armed Alliance." "They were burned by information that the leading faction leaked, so they're out to get rid of the leading faction's key officer and Legrand in one shot." "Well, both of them are pretty worthless, but the fee isn't too bad." "Here he comes." "It's just like the client said." "There's definitely a link between Legrand and Cressoy." "This is the leading faction's hideout." "I don't know how they got such a property in this day and age." "These are the blueprints for that building." "The emergency exits are here and here." "The front was blocked, so our paths of entry will be limited." "There are two routes." "I'll cover the main one." "You take the remaining escape route." "Welcome to our fort, comrade." "It had better be really important for you to have sent for me." "Yeah, it probably is." "What's this about?" "The activities of one of our other factions have been bothering me for the past few days." "So I captured one of them, just for kicks." "What?" "This way." "He was tough, but he spilled his guts an hour ago." "It seems the branch faction hired a hitman to kill you and me." "You're certain?" "Yeah, sounds like something they'd come up with." "And did you get the assassin's name out of him?" "The codename is Noir." "He doesn't seem to know anything beyond that." "Noir?" "!" "That Noir?" "!" "No, it can't be." "You recognize it?" "Yes, I do." "That name holds a special meaning in the underworld." "In the past, we, the French National Public Peace Department, have also hired Noir for jobs." "But that was back in the seventies." "Does this mean that Noir has become active again?" "Or is someone completely unrelated calling himself Noir?" "No matter who Noir is, we know that he's coming." "We have plenty of options available to us." "Don't worry, we'll gather our members right away." "What about him?" "Do whatever you want." "You go around to the emergency exit with the Director." "Got it." "The rest of you, follow me." "Damn it!" "It can't be!" "How can..." "You... you're Noir?" "!" "Your work is always so vulgar, you know?" "Looks like today will be a beautiful day." "Daily bread..." "I make a living by killing people." "But then why don't I feel sad?" "If we could find that out," "I'd be able to kill you and be done with it."
