Arsène Lupin, le fantaisiste gentleman qui n'opère que dans les châteaux et les salons, et qui, une nuit, où il avait pénétré chez le baron Schormann, en était parti les mains vides et avait laissé sa carte ornée de cette formule: "Arsène Lupin, gentleman-cambrioleur, reviendra quand les meubles ser...
