Lies and Truth.Episode Description:
Lag learns from Niche and Sarah that Noir is supposedly back as well as Roda. The capital inspectors reach the Bee Hive to search for Gauche to no avail. They reveal their intention to interrogate Sylvette, so Lag and Niche head to her home ahead of the inspectors. Lag has Sylvette lend him her clothes to impersonate her so that he will be taken by the inspectors instead for her safety. Largo learns from a reliable tip that there are more Marauders around Yuusari. Gauche and Roda return to Reverse, but are unable to find Lawrence and the other members. The inspectors arrive with the disguised Lag to meet Gauche, stating their real intention is to kill him as well as his sister. Lag hears from their conversation that they are Reverse and accidentally blows his cover. Meanwhile, Largo explains to Aria and Sylvette that Valentine and Garrard are actually Marauders who have successfully infiltrated the Amberground government. The inspectors attempt to kill Lag but Niche fights them. Lag returns Gauche's weapon to him. Niche is distracted by Valentine and falls into an impenetrable cage. Gauche declares himself as Noir and wants to return to Reverse, but the inspectors do not believe him. Noir explains that he used Lag's memories to fabricate Gauche's personality and thoughts to deceive Lag and the others. Lag is devastated and breaks down, while Noir tells Garrard he will kill Lag as proof of his loyalty to Reverse. Niche rescues Lag from being shot by Noir but causes a collapse around them. As the Reverse members attempt to check if they are still alive, Jiggy Pepper arrives by orders from Largo and attacks them, causing them to retreat. Jiggy tries to follow but is blocked by Noir, who facilitates Reverse's escape. Lag and Niche, who remained unharmed, are picked by Jiggy and sent home. Lag is disappointed that the letter bullet did not work but Jiggy reminds him that Noir did not use a shindanjuu to kill him, meaning that he did not wish to reveal his heart to Lag, offering a chance that Gauche might be in there somewhere.
