Case 3-5 - Bridge to the Turnabout

Courtroom time! Franziska von Karma has shown up as the prosecution for this case - guess Godot wasnt interested after he heard Miles was taking over for Phoenix. We also have a very Canadian judge, eh? Whats that aboot?

Mr Edgeworth immediately begins to grill Sister Bikini on the events that night - her testimony is full of weird contradictions, timeline problems, and other issues [but traumatic memory is like that, right folks?]. Having been through the Court Record a few times, I was able to point them out easily. So now its just a matter of dealing with SSSSSSIBLING RIVALRY. Franziska is pretty sure shes going to get a perfect case here, and Miles is dead set on helping her understand that perfection just isnt a thing, much less a thing to strive for. He has really grown since his travel abroad, huh?

We find that the Shichishito [7-branched sword] cannot have been the murder weapon Sister Bikini claims it was, buried up to the hilt in Mystic Elises body. Bikini admits she did not see the moment that Elise was stabbed, only that she saw Iris remove the sword from Elises body smoothly. As stabbing anyone up to the hilt with the Shichishito is near impossible for anyone, much less Iris, and the 7 branches would cause a problem for any smooth removal, Edgeworth stands against these statements. The sword itself is only bloodied nearest the tip anyway, not all the way up the blades as testified.

The game does make an important point here - deep puncture wounds such as those made by swords, daggers, arrows, stakes, railroad spikes, a chopstick, or even your ballpoint pen bleed the most after the item is removed. For some reason, entertainment over the years has been a big fan of quick item removal in a puncture wound situation and that is quite possibly the worst thing you could do unless under medical supervision. Even anime Durarara!! had a character wisely comment to themselves I better take this out later, once I get some superglue after being stabbed in the hand with a pen. Immediate removal is death. Be extremely cautious of doing so IRL.

The image of Sister Bikini on those little stack of milk crates is still making me laugh. Well continue with her bizarre testimony tomorrow.

See you then!
