The Great Ace Attorney: Adventures/Episode 1: The Adventure of the Great Departure/Trial, Part 2

Courtroom Lobby
Asougi congratulates you and is impressed by your performance. He's relieved that we finally got the lady to testify about her perspective. Naruhodou quickly goes over his experience during the day of the incident. Professor Mikotoba shows up. Like Asougi, he is also impressed on how you fared in court. Asougi confronts Mikotoba's plan to remove him from the defense team, to which he responded that he did it for Asougi's future. Professor Mikotoba also reveals that he was the one who invited Watson to come over to Japan and teach. The officials call you in and the trial continues.

Trial begins
Prosecutor Auchi calls Jezail to the stand. She seems to be only capable of speaking English and has Satoru translate her words. (In game, the font her words are written in is exaggerated and unreadable - mimicking the fact that they can't understand her) Jezail claims to have witnessed the murder, describing it as sad and terrifying. The Judge will then have her testify about what she saw.

That Sad and Terrifying Spectacle: Cross Examination
Press on statement two. Jezail reveals that Watson drank carbonated water at La Quantos, and the two made a toast. Asougi will ask for your opinion on her statement. Select that it was very important. The Judge will have Jezail revise her statement.


 * "The professor and I made a toast, using carbonated water in wine glasses."

Present Crime Scene Photo on this statement. Jezail claims that she had made a toast with Watson, but the photo only shows one wine glass on the table. Asougi brings up the possibility that the wine glass could've been purposely hidden to hide evidence. Jezail reveals that she was the one who removed the glass due to not wanting to be involved in the crime scene. Asougi asks where she hid the glass, to which she responds that she placed it in her handbag.

The Judge and Prosecutor Auchi are about to wrap this discussion up, but you must say why the discussion is important in order to prolong it. You are given 3 topics to bring up. Select to call attention to the handbag. Naruhodou claims that although Jezail couldn't hide the pistol in her dress, she could've concealed it in her handbag. Satoru reveals that he did not check the contents of Jezail's handbag. This is good news for the defense as it brings up the possibility that Jezail wielded the murder weapon, however Satoru shuts you down. He didn't search it because there was no need. He holds up a photograph that contains Jezail's handbag. In the photo, only a wine glass can be seen in the bag. Nothing else. Photograph of the Handbag has been filed in the Court Record.

The Judge ends the cross-examination, seeing the recent evidence as hard proof that Jezail couldn't have been the murderer. You look over at Asougi, who looks defeated. As long as there are no problems with the photograph, the Judge will hand down the guilty verdict. But before he gets the chance to, you interject. The Judge will give you one more chance to point out any problems in the photo. Point at the burn mark on the victim's arm in the background. Prosecutor Auchi and Satoru both claim that the mark bears no significance on the current case at hand. You must provide evidence that links the scar with the current case. Present Crime Scene Photo. Prosecutor Auchi wants you to point out the exact spot in the photo that caused Watson to develop the burn scar. Point at the iron plate's insignia. (The shape at the edge that bears resemblance to the shape of the scar).

The scar seems fresh, meaning Watson got it the day of the incident. However, such a wound would've caused Watson to cry out in pain, yet both Naruhodou and Satoru have no memory of any yells or shouts. Satoru claims that in order for Watson to receive the burn, he must hold it on the iron plate for around 3 seconds, meaning it was not an accidental injury. That begs the question: Why did no one hear Watson's scream? You are given 3 possibilities. Select he was already dead. When Jezail was eating with the professor, he was already dead. With such a possibility, The Judge requests that Jezail give further testimony to clear things up.

Jezail Brett's Testimony: The Victim's Death
This is the last time you'll get a chance to cross-examine Jezail. If you don't find any inconsistency with her testimony, it's all over.

The Victim's Death: Cross Examination
Press on statement 5. Jezail says that in Great Britain, all evidence found at the crime scene is preserved and investigated thoroughly, whereas in Japan, the investigations are quick and not as detailed. She also says that even if something in the situation changed, you would not be able to file new evidence. Satoru can be seen coughing in the background. Afterward, you and Asougi will have a quick chat about what just happened. Naruhodou claims that he saw Satoru react oddly to Jezail's statement. Asougi will advise you to press the same statement again, however this time, you question Satoru instead of Jezail.

Press on statement 5. You will cycle through previously heard statements until you reach the part where Jezail talks about not being able to file new evidence. Satoru can be seen reacting poorly again. Asougi will introduce a new mechanic to the cross-examination sequence. At the bottom of the screen are 2 icons with an indicator currently over the one on the left, symbolizing Jezail. Slide the indicator over to the right icon. Next, press the question button. You will now question Detective Satoru. Prosecutor Auchi will try and prevent you from questioning him, claiming that Jezail is the one who's testifying, but the Judge asks Satoru if he would like to say anything. He reveals that he had taken something from the crime scene: a bottle of carbonated water. Carbonated Water has been filed in the Court Record. You will now continue with the cross-examination.

Examine the carbonated water. Examine the liquid contents. Naruhodou says that his throat is dry and wants to drink the water to soothe it, but Asougi quickly stops him from doing so, after all, he doesn't know what could be inside; Which leads to a new possibility that Naruhodou thinks of. Present the carbonated water on statement 4. A way that Watson could be killed and leave no trace is if he was poisoned. Naruhodou accuses Jezail of lacing the carbonated water with poison. However, Detective Satoru reveals that the police checked the bottle for traces of poison, and none could be found.

The Judge is convinced that everything has been cleared up and when he asks the defense if they'd like to present new evidence, they have nothing. Jezail is about to leave, when...Hold it! The same girl that accompanied Professor Miktoba shows up behind the witness stand. She introduces herself as Susato Mikotoba and is a legal assistant. In her hand is a small bag wrapped in cloth. What business could she have to interrupt this court proceeding?
