Now, stop everything
but your beating heart and look at me.
To steal...
is not to take something away or break something.
It is a special case. An elegant vice.
It's an amalgam of secrets, felonies,
mischief, and terror.
Just like with Heathcliff in Wuthering Heights,
a life dedicated to stealing brings about the ultimate sensuality.
It's a prison of sexiness from which she cannot escape.
Its psychological foundation is...
unknown.
Who is the slave?
Who is the master?
Is God watching her?
Has God abandoned her?
The act of stealing lets her forget everything
and keeps her memories at a safe distance.
Don't speak, run.
Don't run, but hide.
If you find me, punish me.
If you punish me, kill me.
Save me.
But you have nothing left for me to steal, silly boy.
You've long since been empty, just like me.
So if you want to look at me,
then stop everything you're doing.
Stop everything but your beating heart and look at me.
A Woman named Mine Fujiko
It was really
just a small thing.
If I just threw it away,
I wouldn't have had a problem.
Stay still!
Nevertheless, I...
How beautiful!
It's as if a jewelry box burst open.
And among its contents...
the one that shone the brightest
was a black gem.
Pride, huh?
This belong to you?
You protected your pride.
I wanted to protect him.
Feast of fools
The jewel that's mine alone.
A necklace heirloom of the noble family Bourban has been stolen.
Despite being guarded by several hundred police,
Necklace of the Bourbans is stolen
it was stolen so easily.
Necklace of the Bourbans is stolen
The culprit is...
Necklace of the Bourbans is stolen
...Mine Fujiko.
Last month, it was a Mycenaean golden ring.
She's only stealing gaudy and low-class things.
Furthermore, she imitated Lupin's calling card.
She doesn't know her place.
This time it's Duchess Langley's tiara stored at the Marseine art museum.
Inspector...
I've been put in charge of Fujiko.
Until she's captured, I won't be allowed to pursue Lupin.
I can't afford to waste time on a pawn like Fujiko.
While we're tied up here, Lupin is...
Inspector Zenigata.
I will put everything I have into apprehending Mine Fujiko.
I swear this on my life.
What is this mess?!
I tried preparing some oatmeal in tuna broth.
Is it not to your liking?
What's with you?
Are you trying to take care of me?
What are you after?
If you want to have sex with me, don't beat around the bush!
You'll catch cold.
Get out.
She's...
definitely a tramp.
At first,
I thought she was a pure woman.
Has my perception dulled?
That'd be a grievous fault for a man who follows the way of the sword.
However...
I can't say I was entirely wrong.
And now a report on the necklace that was stolen from the Bourban family.
Police received a calling card announcing intent to steal from a thief named Mine Fujiko.
This information was disclosed in a press conference at the investigation headquarters.
The Bourbans necklace, and last month's...
A woman named Mine Fujiko.
At least for the sake of my swordsmanship,
I must find out the truth about Mine Fujiko.
Our security is flawless.
50 around the entrance,
30 at the back,
and on the nearby roads and surrounding buildings, about 300 men are stationed.
Not even an ant could get in, much less a rat.
Gas masks on!
Tear gas distributed through the sprinkler system.
It's all going as I expected.
Stay focused!
Protect the tiara!
Inspector...
Did Mine Fujiko not appear?
This is...
Call the expert.
Have him examine the tiara!
Oh dear.
A perfect crime after a calling card.
It's a bit too flashy for Mine Fujiko's style.
Unlike Lupin, who steals for the thrill of it, Mine Fujiko actually values the item.
I'll be taking Duchess Langley's tiara
at the Marseine museum
She wouldn't purposely do something dangerous.
There are four possible points from which she could've entered the area.
But there are no signs of her breaking in.
So basically,
that's not when the tiara was stolen.
I can only assume she swapped the tiara with a fake beforehand.
However, that museum has been closed for a week since we received her calling card.
We had the tiara examined two days before the theft,
and it was confirmed to be authentic.
And at all sites of the stolen objects, Mine Fujiko's hair and fingerprints were found.
It's as if she purposely left clues.
What a farce.
This is definitely...
...a crime committed from within the police department.
In that case...
Inspector Zenigata, we've received a new calling card from Mine Fujiko!
This time she's stealing Marie Louise's engagement ring from the Pissaro Museum of Archaeology.
Oscar.
You said that you'd swear your life to capturing Mine Fujiko.
Y-Yes.
Then I'll leave it to you.
Please wait!
If you don't bring Mine Fujiko's case to a close, Lupin will...
Why?
Why...
Why is Inspector Zenigata...
There she is!
It's Mine Fujiko!
Don't let her get away!
Why isn't he trying to capture her?
Why...
isn't he trying to kill her?
Over there!
A-Assistant Inspector Oscar?
"Why," huh?
I get it now.
Maybe he'll change his attitude if Mine Fujiko kills someone.
What was that?
Make sure she doesn't escape!
Oscar.
Do not be alarmed.
We are your allies.
An owl?
I've done some research on you.
Without any living relatives, you were taken in by Zenigata,
and attained the rank of Assistant Inspector.
Your respect and affection for Inspector Zenigata
eventually transformed into love and violent passion,
and now you've become a murderer.
Don't mock me!
You want him to come running after you.
Stop it.
That being the case,
it would've been better to disguise yourself as Lupin.
Why did you disguise yourself as Mine Fujiko?
Shut up, you blasted bird!
You wish to receive from Zenigata what Mine Fujiko received in that interrogation room.
Drenched in sweet obsessions,
they feverishly engaged in that relentless activity—
Shut the hell up!
I will aid you.
Just as you want,
in the way you want it,
at the place you want to reach...
the Bride of Fear.
A Woman named Mine Fujiko
I'll be taking the bride's dress at the Revolution Festival
On the weekend of the Revolution Festival,
Mine Fujiko's calling card came.
At the center of the parade
is this year's "bride", representing a virgin married to the ideal of revolution.
Mine Fujiko's target is the bride's dress.
That dress is studded with precious gems from all around the world
that compete against each other with their brilliance.
In fact, they shine so brilliantly that any bride would be overshadowed.
Today, in the place of Inspector Zenigata,
I will take command!
I knew it.
This is a follow-up report.
Mine Fujiko is believed to be behind the incident involving Marie Louise's engagement ring,
Men may act nice, but in the end they're all...
and seems to have fled the scene after shooting a policeman to death.
M-Me?
This crime uses a different trick than the one to steal Duchess Langley's tiara.
Tiara...
and is unusually brutal...
I will crown you with a tiara.
The authorities have expressed deep concerns over Mine Fujiko's crimes
and assigned additional manpower to help resolve the case as soon as possible.
I have to kill her.
I have to kill Mine Fujiko.
Count Almeida.
A new page in the story of Mine Fujiko
is about to be written.
I'll have one.
You can't fight a war on an empty stomach.
Lemme get one.
Well now.
A bomb threat?!
It says that a bomb is hidden somewhere in this town.
Don't you think she's just trying to confuse us?
The revolutionary festival is of great meaning to the people.
We can't afford to cancel the parade.
Mine Fujiko, what are you thinking?
She's not thinking anything.
Inspector Zenigata?
Mine Fujiko isn't behind this.
She wouldn't do this.
What?
Her criminal history...
Going by the pattern of her activity,
the latest string of incidents can only be caused by someone else.
Inspector!
What are you saying?
She left behind so much evidence—
I believe in what I can see.
...what I can see.
I believe in Mine Fujiko.
He believes in Mine Fujiko?
I see.
A parade, huh?
That spittoon woman!
There are things that transpire only between men and women that you wouldn't understand.
Something that you cannot understand about a person until you are connected with them.
Quit messing with me!
We did not come to argue with you.
We came to discuss the arrangements for the parade.
One after another...
How much more do I have to dance for you?
Have it your way.
I'll play along.
Start chirping, birds.
The revolutionary bride has reached Point S.
The parade will head down Chandelier Street
to the bridge that will serve as the main stage.
A
per
fect
pl
an
Just before it reaches the bridge,
there will be some spectacular fireworks.
Then to match those, a bomb will explode in the middle of the bridge,
destroying it.
When the people panic, and the police force's movements are hampered,
you will run to the edge of the bridge to guard the revolutionary girl,
or rather, pretend to do so.
Then you will steal her dress.
The parade isn't here yet?
The radio won't connect either.
Why? Why is it taking so long?
Bad news! It's about the parade!
We can't go any further!
What's that?
It's a ninja!
Slash! Slash! Slash!
Change the route!
The parade will continue! Our pride as policemen is on the line!
Well, then.
Found you.
More owls?
Man, the ones who did this sure are persistent.
I should disable the vibration-sensitive explosion device first.
I'll be a goner if this owl's claws touch the twig, huh?
Why don't I start by trying to hold the owl in place with glue?
I've got no obligation to defuse it,
but I don't like their way of doing things.
I ask you to be calm.
Inspector Zenigata!
We managed to get the parade to continue—
How many years has it been?
In this city, I was forced into something I detested.
Getting involved in corruption.
If I wanted to reach the top, I had no choice.
Or so I thought.
But it was right here
that I met a filthy brat who tried his best to protect his one fran coin.
Inspector Zenigata...
That brat taught me a lesson.
No matter how dirty your hands are, there are some things you should never let go of.
No matter how small, the moment you let it go,
regardless of what else you obtain, it'll turn to desolate sand.
I reported my boss for it.
I gave up my path to the top, but I don't regret it.
I believe in those who hold on to pride.
Black...
...gem.
I...
The thing I really wanted to protect...
Oscar!
Pride means nothing.
No matter how filthy,
no matter how low I sunk,
there was something I wanted to obtain.
But...
Not good.
This is gonna...
There's no time to defuse it!
Hey, don't do that!
I...
was already holding it in my hands.
Hey!
If you say that you'll believe even a person like me,
then I will protect... those feelings of yours.
I obtained it.
The black gem...
that is mine alone.
