Lupin, Jigen, and Goemon were all sitting around their hotel room in a foreign city. They were taking a break from work and relaxing in the living room area after a take-out dinner. It was late January and there was snow swirling around outside the window.

"So, guys, Valentine's Day is coming up," said Lupin. "What do you think I should get Fujiko?"

"What?" Jigen looked at Lupin from under his hat.

"Come on, guys, you know I have to get my special lady something for Valentine's Day!"

Goemon, who was usually silent, snorted in suppressed laughter. Jigen shook his head.

"How many times is it gonna take for you to realize that girl's no good for you?" Jigen said. "Have you already forgotten about the last time she backstabbed us?"

"Oh, come on, guys, she apologized," said Lupin, grinning boyishly. "I'm sure she meant it this time. And besides, you know I just can't resist my Fujicakes!"

"Lupin, we don't even know where she is right now," said Jigen. "She could be anywhere in the world, sucking off some old rich guy who's already given her all the jewels she could want, and you're sitting here like a shmuck trying to figure out what to give her."

"And we're supposed to be on a 'vacation' right now, anyway," said Goemon.

"Bahhh," said Lupin, waving his hand dismissively. "You guys just don't understand love." He leaned forward and poured a glass of soda. "I'll find the perfect gift for her, and it's gonna win her over. You just wait and see."

Jigen and Goemon exchanged glances but said no more.

The next day, Lupin was walking around the city, looking for something to steal. This was a new city to him, and he wasn't very familiar with it.

"Hmm," he said to himself. What to get for Fujiko?

After walking around for a while he stopped in a café to get something to eat. While scanning the newspaper, he saw an ad for "Fay Jewelers". It caught his eye and he read the advertisement:

"Looking for the perfect gift for Valentine's Day? Come to Fay Jewelers! We have everything 50%-75% off for the upcoming holiday!"

Underneath the text there were close-up photos of fancy necklaces, bracelets, and rings. And beneath the pictures of jewelry:

"Fay Jewelers! Home of the World Famous 85 Carat White Diamond!"

And under this text was a picture of a brilliant diamond.

Lupin grinned. I think I know what to get Fujiko!

Fay Jewelers was only a couple of blocks away from the café. Lupin walked in to case the joint. Would they have this huge diamond on display?

The store was cool and quiet. Cases and cases of jewelry were lined up along the walls. Mesmerized by the sparkling gems, Lupin wandered along the cases until a soft voice interrupted him.

"Hello," said an old man from the corner.
