Apollo listened eagerly, taking notes as Mr. Gavin interviewed their client.
After a while his boss turned to him with a sweet smile. “Today’s an interesting day, Justice. This case is worth doing a little of our own investigation.”
“Sir?” Apollo gave him a quizzical look. Defense Attorneys weren’t strictly allowed on crime scenes after all– that was prosecutorial business.
Gavin wagged a finger at him however. “Tut tut, Justice. We won’t do anything illegal, obviously. Come along. The game’s afoot!”

They’d been poking around the scene of the crime for about an hour. Mr. Gavin had gotten permission from the detective in charge with a smiling conversation.
It was thrilling, really. Not part of the job that he typically had gotten to see yet in his internship. Not technically part of the job at all, though he knew his idol, Phoenix Wright was known for doing such things.
Still, the more they investigated, the more Apollo began to feel unsettled.
“Sir,” Apollo finally said, pulling his boss aside quietly. “I’m starting to get a bad feeling about this.”
Gavin cocked an eyebrow. “Oh? Do elaborate, Justice.”
“Well…” he rubbed his arm, his fingers trailing over his old bracelet. “I’m starting to get the feeling that our client actually did it.”
This is the most flattering comment ever, thank you so much!! 😭😭💖💖💖
