The Great Ace Attorney 2: Resolve/Episode 1: The Adventure of the Blossoming Attorney/Trial, Part 2

Before the trial continues, Yujin provides Susato with a Chemical Reagent. If you thought that Soseki Natsume was over the top, meet Raiten Menimemo! He's an excitable reporter who always carries around a camera and shows off his Shoyu News emblem. The judge orders Menimemo to give his testimony about the moment involving Rei and Brett that he caught on camera. Brace yourself, as Menimemo is full of energy and likes to show off.

The Camera Never Lies: Cross Examination
Press on statement 3 to get the beach hut plan and an additional statement. Inspect both ends of the fountain pen; one end has the emblem of the newspaper company Menimemo works for.

Examine the base of the Fountain Pen. Then present the Fountain Pen on the new statement to prove Menimemo did set foot in the beach hut, as the initials don't only apply to Rei Membami, but they could also stand for Raiten Menimemo!

Menimemo counters that he only uses pencils, yet he has a large ink stain on the hand he uses to write with. Prove that the pen is his by pointing out the Shoyu News emblem on the end of the pen.

This leads to the next testimony.

The Witnesses' Secrets: Cross Examination
Press on statement 4 or statement 5 and Soseki will amend statement 4 and statement 5.

Press statement 5 and Soseki will say that the victim pointed to the back of the room when he asked her who attacked her, but it was in a slightly different direction than to the defendant.

Choose I know when Susato wonders if she knows where the true culprit was and when the judge asks to show him on the beach hut plan. Point to the outside of the hut to the left, directly behind the stool, as this is the spot where Menimemo took his photo.

When the judge asks for evidence showing how the culprit could stab the victim from the outside, present the first Crime Scene Photograph. The judge asks Susato to be more specific, so point to the slit in the reed screen above the stool the victim was sitting on.

Thus we get to the last testimony of the case.

Complete Innocence: Cross Examination
Press statement 3. Menimemo will talk about the argument for a moment before Membami interrupts him. After Susato intervenes, the judge allows for Membami to add a statement in between statements 3 and 4.

Press the new statement. It’s then revealed that the article about the poison is almost word for word what Membami told the victim. The poison article will be updated.

Present the updated Poison Article on statement 2 or statement 5. Menimemo realised only after poisoning the victim how traceable the poison would be.

It seems the case is over until Menimemo counters that there isn’t any evidence that he stole the poison, but Susato realizes there is a piece of evidence explaining how he stole the poison.

Present the Fountain Pen. It could suck up the poison just like ink. Menimemo again states that there’s no way of knowing if there ever was poison in the fountain pen, so when prompted, present the Chemical Reagent.

Menimemo finally snaps and starts swinging his camera around furiously, forcing both Rei and Susato to do a takedown on him. Afterwards, Menimemo confesses the elaborate scheme in framing Rei for Brett's death.

The judge is fully convinced of Rei's innocence and decides to give her the verdict:



Congratulations on winning your first case! As for Prosecutor Auchi, he finally cuts the top part of his hair.

After the trial
Your dad and your friend congratulates you for your win in this case. Hosonaga and Soseki realize that it's Susato who was acting as a lawyer and are stunned by this new revelation. But Menimemo is not done yet! He's about to reveal some new information about Kazuma when the judge knocks him down once more and orders the guard to take him away. Of course, Yujin also reveals that he told the judge about you before everyone leaves. Lastly, Soseki brings up the case that followed the last one he'd been in, reminding you of something important.

Back outside by the tree, Susato writes a letter for Narahudo to read back in London, England. Susato will come back to London very soon.
