It is a large cemetery. Mireille easily finds their target and his companion. There are many people standing in rows just before one splendid built tombstone. A man kneels on the ground in front of the grave. That must be their target. Then some people move and cover their view.

"Ow, what a beautiful one. I would also like to have such a beautiful tombstone." comments Mireille.

"This guy must have loved his wife so much. But he is also a bad blackmailer, and therefore our target. Well, next year he is not going to visit this grave anymore. But I guess it is okay for the wife when she has her husband with her."

Kirika pulls out her gun.

"Hey, what are you doing?" protests Mireille.

"Let's finish this job quickly." answers Kirika.

"No, no! What a vulgar way. Won't you give him the last chance to finish his visit before we kill him?!"

Kirika puts down her gun.

"If you want to,"

Mireille looks back at the people, now they are mourning deeply.

"It is taking a long time... what time is it now?"

"Around 3 o'clock, I guess."

"Okay, time to switch to Les Soldats. We have to leave them for a while. Aaaah, but maybe then we would miss them!"

Mireille curses softly.

"Shall we split up?" suggests Kirika.

Mireille looks back to the people gathering around at the other side.

"I don't know, we can't contact each other when something happens."

"Where are we supposed to meet this ally, by the way?" asks Kirika.

"Uh... luckily for us, Soldats arranged an appointment with him in an underground parking place."

She points at a big building about 100 m from their location.

"Kirika, which one do you want to take? The man here with the whole people or one from Soldats? And don't forget to interrogate him about Soldats before you kill him!"

"I will stay here, then."

"Good. We will meet again, somehow, later. If you can't find me, just go back to our apartment. If we don't meet each other at home, then it means one of us might have died, ok?"

Kirika looks at Mireille sadly.

"Don't look so sad. It is our risk. You know it. It is a business with death, and there is no guarantee that we won't die in the missions."

Kirika nods.

Mireille smirks.

"Just do me a favor when I die. Find my corpse and bury me with a beautiful tombstone, ok?"

Kirika smiles.

"Ok."

Mireille glances a last time at Kirika before she turns to a corner.

Her heart is thumping quicklier with every step closer to the agreed place. Not because this time she has to separate from Kirika. She is just really eager to know what Soldats is planning this time.

When she arrives, it is all dark in the parking place. Mireille skulks around, pointing her gun to many direction each time she hears strange sounds. After some minutes on guard she puts her gun down, and exactly at this moment a shot causes her gun to fly off her hand.

Mireille holds on her aching hand and evades more shots. She turns a somersault and reaches for her Walther.

Unfortunately, it is not there anymore.

Mireille gasps softly in terror. Maybe she should have given Kirika more instructions about her burial.

More shots.

Mireille jumps behind a car and waits. When she has to, she would protect herself, even if she has no weapon. Then she sees her gun.

There.

A black cat is straying around with her Walther between his teeth!

Kirika didn't give her a correct information about black cats. They don't foretell bad luck. They ARE the bad luck!

Mireille rushes to the cat.

"Meoww!"

The cat runs away from her.

Mireille wants to die so badly.

More shots. Mireille is in a big trouble now. It's too dark to see how many people are shooting at her. The only light source is the big tunnel outside where she Comes from. By the way, she comes here to kill someone. How come she's the one being hunted now?

Then a thought comes across her mind. Was it all planned? Is this another trap just like in Albert Dux-case? Oh no. Kirika.

Suddenly a man shows up right in front of her and points his gun at her.

Oh no.

He shoots.
