Silver is a character of Lupin the 3rd Part 2.
History[]
Silver is a thief in Czech Republic. His personality is very greedy and willing to betray people to get what he wants for himself. As well as money, he is also attracted to women.
Himself and Lupin III were involved in a train robbery, Lupin pulled the lever to change the track as the train went into the river and they both cheered. Lupin dived to secure the carriage and lifted it upwards, Silver however betrayed Lupin by using his speedboat that caused him to fall off the carriage and got the money for himself. Lupin was struggling to swim and Silver never went back for him, he decided to bury the money bags at a plot somewhere as when Lupin went back to find the containers empty. Silver was then arrested for a simple bank robbery and waved at Lupin.
Eight years after, he was freed from prison. He sniffed when he left and thanked the guard for looking after him but he replied don't come back again closing the prison gate. As he was about to smoke his cigarette, Lupin mentioned it was a long time as he aimed his gun at him causing his bag to drop. It gave him a scare as his match was thrown and scolded his hand, he asked what he wanted to do with him but it turned out that the gun was a lighter and continued his smoke. Lupin was happy that he has his freedom and wanting to plan his future, Silver shouted back that he had no plan and was not worried about him. Just as Lupin was about to pick up his bag, Koichi Zenigata saw him and saying that it was handy that he was outside a prison. Lupin picked up the bag knew that Silver tipped him off however he just said that it was expected to happen. He suggested to Lupin that he should go to jail and saying that it's not bad when you get used to it as he stubbed out his cigarette, he grabbed his bag and ran off knocking Lupin to the ground.
Lupin was running after Silver while being chased by Zenigata but was unable to catch him due to that Zenigata handcuffed his ankles. Silver ran up some stairs to the roof and Lupin shook his fist back at him, he jumped to the other roof for his getaway.
Both Lupin and Daisuke Jigen followed Silver to the local market where he stole a chicken drumstick and ran off with the vendor chasing after him, however Lupin stopped him and Jigen paid for the bill. He then went to a bar to look at a dancer, knowing that Lupin and Jigen were after him he expected them to pay for drinks. Jigen was furious yet paid his bill.
They took Silver to Lupin's hideout to ask regarding the money, he grabbed for the cigars but Lupin stopped him. Silver however got a cigar, sniffed and was willing to share 60/40 (with Silver getting the 60%), Lupin refused as he believed that the money was his. He chomped on the cigar and saying that it was his but Jigen put his magnum on his nose saying that he wouldn't need it if he is dead, he pushed his gun away saying that a dead man won't lead him to the money. Lupin accepted as Silver knew he was understanding and told Jigen that he should learn from him. They toasted and Silver tells his that Lupin is a wasted man if he drunk too much. Lupin asked for the money but Silver decided to drink the entire bottle.
Silver asked about Lupin's other partner and Jigen thought he was Goemon however he was referring to Fujiko Mine. Lupin was surprised and how he knew, she had visited Silver once and claimed to be a "gentle woman". As Lupin was shocked, Fujiko promised to meet him when he was released from prison. He quickly put a gas mask on as a ball was thrown filling the room with sleeping gas causing Lupin and Jigen to fall to the floor. Silver swiped the cigars and claimed to be working for Fujiko to divide the money between them, he left the hotel room.
Fujiko picked him up and drove off however Goemon Ishikawa XIII was watching and threw a tracking knife at the trunk of the car. As they were driving, Silver grabbed Fujiko's legs but she pinched his hand. Silver and Fujiko got out of the car to remember where he hid the money as they climbed the rock, Lupin was at the top as they climbed up. Lupin grabbed hold of Silver and let go as it turned out that the plot of land became a hi-tech prison. Silver lied by claiming to be a residential building and he was shaking his fist dreaming of the day. Lupin however was not willing to give up, Silver was cocky has he was pushing Lupin to the prison.
As Lupin ended up in prison, he was with Jigen, Goemon and Fujiko. He claimed that Lupin wanted the money for himself however Goemon knew that he was not like Silver, he twiddled with his thumb. They went into a van calling themselves the San Shi provision shop, he was sat down next to Fujiko and being really happy. Lupin escaped the prison as the money that Silver buried was underneath a tree and flew off on a kite. As Fujiko was driving the Jeep, Silver pulled the rope as he wanted Lupin gone and the money to be dropped down. Jigen shot the rope however the kite was heading back to the prison and Fujiko got off.
Lupin dropped down from his kite and Silver took over driving the Jeep following the money bags. He says that it was his money and no one else should have it. The bags were split open and the Jeep drove from a hill directly into the prison where all the guards were standing. Silver was arrested at the prison.
