On the March 31st, 1973, Lupin and his partner visit the country of East Doroa disguised as the Ambassador of the Maranda Republibic and his chauffeur. They specifically chose the Ambassador because the Maranda republic and East Doroa have a deal.

Prior to the beginning of the film, a famous East Doroan singer known as "Queen Malta" was assassinated during a live performance to promote peace in West Doroa on March 24th, 1973.

After crossing the border, Lupin reads a newspaper containing the story of Malta's assassination. Lupin critiques East Doroa's assassination on Queen Malta, saying they are trying to start a war with everyone. simply responds by saying "Who knows what they're thinking." and pities the civilians of East Doroa. Jigen was Queen Malta's bodyguard during the live performance but failed to stop her assassination as he was stopped from doing so by executive producers thinking her having a bodyguard would ruin her public image. Lupin brings up how East Doroa is a veritable utopia, which the most efficient criminal justice system in the world.

Lupin and Jigen reach the embassy of the Maranda Republic. Where they are lead to the Little Comet, While Lupin is discussing the comet and trying to figure out the code to unlock the safe, Jigen is waiting in the car. Guards approach the car leading Jigen to give up on the original plan and try to just escape with the comet. Lupin shoots down the guards of the embassy and shoot the case containing the comet, telling Lupin they should just hurry and go. They jump out of the window and try to run away, they see they are surrounded. The duo heads for the nearby forest, making a successful getaway for the time being. A strange sniper named Yael Okuzaki begins constructing his sniper rifle. Yael was ordered by East Doroa to kill due to his knowledge of the assassination on Malta, which could reveal East Doroa's "trump-card". He rolls a metal dice determining how many bullets he's supposed to use for both of them, landing on four.

Jigen and Lupin notice a yellow car, Lupin hesitates but Jigen insists. Lupin realizes they're sitting ducks without any vehicle as a getaway, so they rush towards the car. Jigen is shot in the shoulder by Yael since the duo are out in the open, Jigen points out Yael to Lupin. Lupin tries to carry Jigen to the car but Lupin gets shot in the leg. They reach the car and hide behind it, the duo, vulnerable but covered by the car, saving them from Yael.

They seethe in pain, as they have been shot with Yael's special made bullets. Yael, realizing they have reached the car and are out of his vision, decides to leave, knowing he can't do anything yet. The duo drive to a safehouse where they spend the night. Where they also treat their injuries and extract the custom bullets, the duo spends the night in a very standard way, drinking a bunch of wine and eating a bunch of food.

The duo, now having treated their wounds, relax after the encounter. While Lupin is handling everything poorly, Jigen looks at the bullet found in their injuries and recognises it as the same type of bullet that killed Queen Malta. After rethinking the whole event, He comes to a conclusion on why he and Lupin were targeted by a sniper. He deduces that Queen Malta's killer is Yael Okuzaki, a infamous sniper known for preparing tombstones for his victims before killing them. The police reach the neighbourhood the duo are spending the night in, Jigen decides to head out to check if he really is Yael's target, heading for the nearest cemetery. Lupin, confused, joins him.

Jigen goes to the nearest cemetary, desperately searching around for his grave, he finds his. The grave, spelling "JIGEN DAISUKE with DIED 1ST APR 1973 REST IN PEACE" resembles an open book. While Jigen thinks over what he plans to do on how to deal with Yael Okuzaki, Lupin looks at the grave with shock. Lupin asks if Jigen's a ghost, Jigen responds by talking about a rumor about Yael Okuzaki, as the man who prepares gravestones for all his victims. Yael never kills anybody with personal reason, just does whatever East Doroa does. Queen Malta and 's assassinations were ordered by East Doroa, as Yael is East Doroa's trump-card. Jigen ends with mentioning there is not much information regarding Yael, as all he has been ordered to kill have died by his hands.

Lupin takes a flower from the grave, shown to have been placed by Yael. Lupin begins analyzing what it means, as it represents revelry, gratification and victory. , confused ask what he's talking about. Lupin explains he's analyzing the flower's meaning, ending the sentence mentioning parsley also represents "impending doom". Lupin mentions Yael seems to enjoy his work, Jigen stands up and counts the in his. Lupin asks him if he's going to kill Yael, with responding "I can't let just him go. Or do you think I'd lose?".

Jigen decides to simply answer Lupin's questions with the sentiment "There ain't room in this world for two top tier gunslingers.", Lupin claims he's thinking about 's safety as a sign of friendship. Jigen states he sees Lupin as a business partner and nothing else, which offends Lupin. leaves and Lupin leaves the flower on the ground and decides to also leave.
