Ladies and gentlemen!
I bring you marvelous illusions to make your night shine!
Tonight, watch out for a surprise ending for a mother and her son!
This is Japan's foremost luxury train,
the Royal Express.
Yes, it certainly is exquisite.
To be honest, I would prefer to have reserved the whole train for you, Your Majesty.
Not at all.
I was looking forward to the opportunity to mingle with some of the nation's citizenry.
I'm glad I was able to meet such a famous man, too.
What?! Contact Superintendent Chaki yourself!
You mean Inspector Nakamori, the man in charge of your security?
This isn't the time for that!
I'm busy! Bother me later!
No.
Then talk to Superintendent Chaki!
I mean the man who visited my private room earlier.
The bandit known as Kaitou Kid.
Deceiving the whole world with an unquenchable thirst for justice
sekai azamuku yuruginai seigi
Unravel the truth that I'm holding in my hands
hodoite shinjitsu kono te no naka
An elegantly dancing daredevil seen only in silhouette
daitanfuteki na kage ga karei ni odoru
Will you ever tell me the secrets that you hide within yourself?
kimi ga kakushiteru himitsu itsuka kikasete yo
Hands worldwide extend to you, but none ever can reach
nobashita te de fureru koto wa dare mo dekinai
Why don't you show me the world you hide inside yourself?
kimi ga kakushiteru sekai boku ni misasete yo
I'll solve the riddle of your mystifying heart and steal away your gaze
yureru nankai na kokoro tokiakashite ubau sono hitomi
Even after all of my fears and tears, I can't find you
fuangatte naitetatte mitsukerannai yo
Where are you hiding the Truth that I've fallen for?
nerau shinjitsu wa doko e kieta
But even if your thief's answer has to deceive the whole world
tatoe sekai azamuku kotae da to shite mo
With every ounce of trust I have, I'll offer you my hand
shinjite sashidasu tenohira
I won't run and I won't hide, I'm not afraid of anything
kesshite nigenai kowaku wa nai kara
So open your eyes, and rid yourself of weakness
me o ake yowasa o kakikesu n da
The Crystal Mother
Is that true, Your Majesty?!
Yes.
He's here to steal the Principality of Ingram's crown jewel.
Europe's largest topaz,
the Crystal Mother.
This can't be!
That means the heist notice sent to the embassy was genuine!
But why didn't he take off with the jewel?
I'm sure he could tell with just a cursory glance.
This is only a replica.
A replica?!
Yes.
The real one is hidden elsewhere.
Wh-Where is it?
I can't tell even the likes of you, Inspector.
He could be listening in from somewhere on the train.
You heard her! Kid is on this train!
Check every passenger from head to toe!
Sir!
No!
I cannot inconvenience all these people for Ingram's sake.
But Your Majesty...
This matter concerns only the two of us.
The train will reach Osaka in two hours and 30 minutes.
Will he be able to steal the jewel, as stated in his notice?
Or will I be able to protect it?
The honor of my country hinges on the outcome.
Say, Mother.
Your necklace is a little strange, isn't it?
Philip!
What a naughty boy.
I told you to stay in the room!
And as I've instructed you countless times,
you are to address me as "Your Majesty" in public.
Who's the kid?
Prince Philip.
The son of Queen Selizabeth and the late King Henry, who passed away from illness two years ago.
He is the heir to Ingram's throne.
But...
This replica looks different from the last time I saw it.
Excuse me, Your Majesty.
It's been bugged!
Kid must've planted it in Her Majesty's room when he slipped in.
Are you listening, Kaitou Kid?!
As long as I'm around, you won't be laying a finger on that jewel!
My, my. You certainly have sharp eyes, Prince.
What's wrong, Kaito?
That's quite the look on your face.
Th-That damn gumshoe...
It's nothing!
Except your old man just blew out my eardrum.
What are you so mad about?
You're the one who wanted to ride this train in the first place!
That's why I asked my dad to get us tickets.
Yeah, yeah. I'm always grateful to your old man.
Man, you need an attitude adjustment.
And get it before we meet Her Majesty.
I mean, come on. We're on the same train as a queen!
Aren't we lucky?
So let's be on our best behavior.
I'll introduce myself as the daughter of Inspector Nakamori, the man who always stymies Kid!
You serious?
What?!
Kid has ignored our warning again and is targeting another Grand Jewel?!
Yes, Boss.
And thanks to his heist notice, security is even tighter.
Under the circumstances, beating him to the gem won't be easy.
Then just steal it from him!
Kill him if you have to!
Got it?
But whatever you do, watch how you handle that jewel.
After all, it may contain the stone of life, Pandora, which can grant eternal youth!
Understood.
Your Majesty...
Won't you tell me where you're keeping the jewel?
If I don't know the location, I can't effectively focus security.
If you're that worried about it, then stay by my side and protect me.
Let me pour you a drink.
N-No, thank you. I can't drink while on duty.
Oh?
No one has ever refused a drink from me before, Inspector.
Wh-When you put it that way, I guess one drink couldn't hurt.
European liquor is tops, Your Majesty!
D-Dad?!
He's drinking!
Hey!
Your Majesty, this is my daughter Aoko and her classmate Kaito-kun!
Charmed.
I-It's an honor to meet you, Your Majesty!
What're you two doin' over here, anyway?
K-Kaito said he really wanted to meet Her Majesty.
Right?
That was you.
Don't you kids go innerferin' with security, now!
We won't...
Is he supposed to be protecting her?
Regardless, now that I've managed to infiltrate Her Majesty's lounge car,
I can search for the jewel all I want.
But where the hell could it be?
I was just in Her Majesty's room, so I doubt she would've left it there.
Maybe she's keeping it close.
In her bag, under her hat...
Or maybe...
The cat?
Don't tell me it's in the cat's eyes!
What do we have here?
Looks like someone can't stop staring at the queen!
I was looking at the cat, you dummy!
It happens to belong to the queen.
You mean Caesar?
Cute, isn't he? He'll be two this year!
Who are you?
Philip Maximilian du Ingram!
Y-You mean you're...
...the prince?!
C'mere!
C'mon!
Look! Here he is!
You wanted to see him, right?
Y-Yeah.
Let me hold him!
Does he not like me?
I guess that's not really possible.
Was that all?
Y-Yeah.
That's a cute teddy bear.
This?
It was a present from my father!
What's that? Looks like he's about to lose an eye.
Lemme take a look.
Doesn't feel like it's in here, either.
Hey, Mister.
You're...
Kaitou Kid, right?
D-Don't even joke about something like that!
Oh, I'm wrong?
Too bad, since I know where the jewel is hidden.
But I'm not gonna tell you!
Little brat...
Prince Philip, it's dangerous for you to be out here.
Return to your room, please.
Go on. You heard the man.
I'm not going anywhere!
I'm gonna help Mother protect the jewel from Kid!
So you're doing it out of love for your mother?
No, I hate her!
She changed after Father died.
She used to be so kind.
But now, she just gets angry and yells whenever she sees me.
Sometimes she won't even listen to me.
I know she doesn't love me anymore.
But I made Father a promise.
I promised I'd protect Mother and our country.
That's why... That's why...
Mother!
Not "Mother"! You call me "Your Majesty"!
Let go of me! Mother!
Y-Your Majesty!
Mother!
I'd better not see you near this room again!
Do you have to be so harsh with him?
It's none of your concern!
This is the only way to get through to that boy!
Mother!
Wait! Mother!
Mother!
We'll be arriving in Osaka in ten minutes.
It seems I've won, Inspector.
So where is the jewel hidden?
I'll tell you when we reach Osaka.
I think you'll be quite surprised.
Where is it?
Where the hell is it?!
Damn it!
If I don't hurry, I'll miss my chance!
Here, one more.
Oh, boy. Thank you.
Huh?
That's strange.
It hasn't changed at all.
By now, it should've gotten...
Now I get it!
I know where the jewel is!
Where are you going, Kaito?
The bathroom.
See you in a bit!
Sorry, Aoko.
I need you to take a little nap.
I can't show up as Kaitou Kid in front of you.
What's going on?!
I-It's a blackout!
It's gotta be Kid!
He's finally showin' up!
Your Majesty!
Don't get the wrong idea!
I was just tryin' to protect Her Majesty...
Forget that, Inspector.
Where's your glass?
My glass?
My glass is over there.
Wh-What?!
Which one is your glass?
Dunno...
Everyone!
Start looking for it!
Y-You mean the jewel was in my glass with the ice?
Talk about a bold move...
There!
The Crystal Mother is safe!
Kaitou Kid!
It's an honor to see you again, Your Majesty.
Fool.
We're on a train.
There's nowhere for you to escape!
Please remember this, Your Majesty.
Kaitou Kid is an elusive rogue.
And as for you...
Don't forget that the heart of a mother comes before that of a queen.
Farewell!
W-Wait!
Come back, Kid!
All right, get on the phone and have the police cordon off the whole area!
We can't let him get away!
Yes, sir!
Sounds like you're still feeling the booze, Inspector.
The dummy strikes again. How gullible can you get?
You're the gullible one, Mister!
Give me back the jewel.
The people of my country need it.
So give it back!
Well, brat...
I am impressed that you managed to climb up here by yourself.
I didn't do it by myself.
A man helped me.
When I told him you were sure to come here, he carried me up.
A man?
Look. The nice man standing right behind me.
Long time no see, Kaitou Kid.
You!
Unfortunately, I don't have time to play with you.
Put down the jewel and turn around.
Unless you want me to blow this kid's brains out.
Don't do it, Mister!
Don't give it...
Quiet! Keep your mouth shut!
This isn't Pandora, the gem you and your pals are looking for.
What's that?
It's true.
I held it up to the moon a minute ago.
Shut up! I'll check that for myself!
Now turn around!
It's the end of the line for the immortal Kaitou Kid.
We'll see about that.
Don't underestimate me!
Negishita Tunnel
Hey, are you okay?
Give me back the jewel.
What was that?
Is that how you treat a guy who just saved your life?
Without that jewel, the people of my country will...
Forget it!
I'm not giving it back to a liar.
This is all for your mother's sake, right?
You wanna return the jewel so she'll praise you.
Well? Am I on the mark?
Yeah.
Then I've got a better way.
A way to confirm your mother's feelings.
I can't believe this is happening.
My country's precious treasure was stolen because of me.
What can I say to my people?
Y-Your Majesty...
Mother.
Philip!
I'm sorry, Mother.
I chased Kaitou Kid onto the roof and tried to take back the jewel,
but he got away with it.
Mother...
Why won't you ever listen to me?
Why must you pull dangerous stunts like that?!
What's the point?
With your father gone, why did I harden my heart and try to give you a strict upbringing?
But...
But thank goodness!
Thank goodness you're safe.
Mother!
Good for you, Prince.
Your mom is a genuine Queen of Hearts.
Listen. A boy mustn't bawl his eyes out.
And as I keep telling you, refer to me as "Your Highness"!
A magic trick unlocked Her Majesty the Queen's heart.
But tonight, I was no more than an assistant.
The star was a brave little boy.
Well, then.
See you next illusion!
If claws of sadness tried to wrench you away from me
moshimo kanashimi ga tsume o toi de anata no koto o hikisakou to
I'd put an end to that nightmare without a second's delay
chikazuitemo boku ga soko de owaraseru kitto sono akumu o
I want to be optimistic and have that little figment of strength
rakutenka kidori de itai n da nanigenai tsuyosa ga hoshii n da
If it would help you and me, I'd even sell my soul on the cheap
kimi no tame ni boku no tame ni tamashii datte tatakiuttatte ii n da
I have the resolve to go through with it
sono kakugo ga boku ni wa ne aru n da
But yet
soredemo
In the days I spend with you
kimi to no hibi ga kou iu n da
All that we could ever say was "Someday, okay?" "But when's someday?"
'itsuka ne' tte 'itsu na no?' tte zutto sonna choushi datta
Take back those tears you shed
koboreochita namida o hirou yo
When I start thinking about "What should I do?" "I wonder what I should do."
'doushiyou' tte 'nani shiyou' tte kangaetetara asa ni natte
I find the dawn waiting for me
We were just longing to listlessly laze about
konna fuu ni bokura wa dareteitai dake
But is there anything wrong with that?
sore ja dame?
