Layton V.S. Phoenix V.S. Gravity ch.2
I OWN AND REGRET NOTHING!
…...
The first witness to the stand was Sheriff Blubs...He looked pretty shaken up, this had all been a couple weeks ago...and yet his nerves still hadn't recovered from the sight of that dead body...and having to recount it in front of so many people wasn't helping!
"Whenever your ready Sheriff." Blubs nodded. "Right...um...well it all went down at...you know...'not day'...Night! Yes, that's it! This all took place at...you know...the place near the water that sells fish sometimes...Oh, the Warf! Right! Yeah, that's it!...Anyway...the people- The persons- The kids! They had a ...fracas, beat up, a fight! Yes! That's it! A fight! Dipper...That is to say the boy, apparently bashed the girl with a pipe!...It's no secret the boy has...well, had feelings for her...we assume she rejected him...and I guess he reacted badly?" Admitted a very confused and disoriented Blubs...who was clearly on the verge of hyperventilating.
The crowd murmured. That was the most mangled and confusing testimony they had ever witnessed! Apparently, the judge felt the same way. "Right...perhaps you can go into more detail of when you actually arrested the boy?...and maybe do so in a more understandable way?"
Sherif groaned but nodded. The stenographer was getting woozy, this man was sweating worse than a pig! It stank!
The judge also nodded. "Right, then. Mr. Wright, Mr. Layton; just a reminder: unlike our usual court; here you and the prosecutor will be allowed to cross-examine all witnesses on the get-go. Is this understood?"
Phoenix nodded. "Understood your honor." Layton nodded. "I understand as well."
The judge frowned as he squinted at something. "Um...apparently, your also allowed to force the witnesses to eat...corn...through their nose?" Asked the judge confused. "Also your-
"Uh...with all due respect your honor. I thoroughly read up the laws." Says a sheepish Pheonix as he sweat-drops. "Yes, I have as well." confirmed Layton.
The Judge let out a sigh of relief. "Oh, thank goodness...their are fifty pages of this tripe! Honestly, who wrote these laws, a chicken!?"
Seeing everyone looking at him funny. The judge quickly composed himself.
"Right...well, anyway let the Cross-examination begin!"
