On the Night of the New Moon (新月の夜に, Shingetsu no Yoru ni) is the 128th chapter of the Golden Kamuy manga.
Synopsis[]
In Abashiri Prison, the guards are doing their daily escort of Noppera-Bou to another cell which Kadokura notes. As he is making his patrols, a prisoner calls out to him and asks about Noppera-Bou. He says that he heard that the 7th Division will storm the prison and kill everyone within to cover up the attack. Kadokura tells the prisoner that he will give them guns to fight against them while he makes his escape.
Before the two groups commence their plan, they go over on how to enact it, which Shiraishi believes will be an even greater risk due to different circumstances. Hijikata warns Kadokura that should they fail the mission, he will be exposed as a wanted man. However, Kadokura tells him that he has no real attachment to his job and that he would follow him, thinking it would make his late father happy.
Kadokura reveals that due to the mass breakouts, most of the guards have been replaced with newer ones and thus he is the only one working with Hijikata. Hijikata calls out to Ogata who had been hiding in the tunnel and tells him to get out. He then reveals that he heard from Tanigaki about his father and casts doubts on him. Ogata responds with a retort and draws back into the tunnel, mocking their trust in each other. Elsewhere, Inudou is practicing his swordsmanship by himself. Sugimoto wonders if Noppera-Bou really does have blue eyes but even Kadokura does not know despite having been in the prison for seven years and that the only reason he was still there was because he had been playing stupid.
As Sugimoto and Asirpa scout the perimeter, Shiraishi asks Inkarmat if she had done divination to determine Noppera-Bou's true identity. She says she has many times, and that she had received mostly "no" in regards to him being Wilk. However, her divination had been giving her more "yes" lately. Shiraishi asks her to do one more divination but stops it at the last moment so as not to have any last minute doubts and that they should just go and find out for themselves.
On the night of a pitch black moonless night, the two groups finally carry out their plan. Sugimoto, Asirpa, and Shiraishi will be the ones to infiltrate the prison with Toni being their guide in the complete darkness. However, mere moments into their infiltration, they are immediately caught by a couple of guards with a lantern, asking who they are.
