Pont des Arts
In the story · Part 1, end of ch. 1
At the end of the first episode Assane walks across this footbridge with his son Raoul and gives him the Arsène Lupin book that his own father once gave him. It is the moment the whole series hangs on: a father passing the gentleman thief on to his son.
