The farce concerns the ultimate fate of the gem called the Penultimate Night, and the identity of the mysterious man who absconded with a certain detective's long-lost body. For what purpose does M pursue the Penultimate Night?
Every time they went out, 
they'd stare at the ground,
كلّما خرج، يحدّق في الأرض
Hat draußen nur auf den Boden gestarrt
Cada vez que salía,
se quedaba mirando al suelo
Cada vez que salía,
se quedaba mirando al suelo
Il fixait toujours le sol,
quand on sortait.
Quando camminava non faceva
che guardare per terra
Toda vez que saía, só olhava para o chão,
На улицу выходил —
так только под ноги смотрел!
