Then so many years passed, and how fast time went by.
I heard about the Dark Age of Law vaguely, but I didn't pay much attention to it.
I just heard it was one murder of a psychologist, and the defendant was a prosecutor.
I heard the victim's daughter called out, but the sentence was death penalty.
I really felt a little familiar with that scene.
I only knew I had to work hard to realize my dream.
Lana also got out during this time, so I had some motivation.
"Ema, you must work so hard in those years."
"What are you talking about, Lana? No matter what happens, I still have so much support. Also, I need to prepare for the exam for scientific investigator."
"Well, good luck on your exam."
Lana didn't talk much, just quietly turning back to walk away.
It was so unlucky that I didn't pass the test for forensics investigator but became a detective. That was not so bad,
but then I was assigned to that man, and I couldn't ignore that fact.
I felt terrible when I saw "Klavier Gavin" in the name list.
When I came close to his rock style office, I even didn't want to get in.
"It's been a long time, Fräulein Detective."
His blonde hair was as long as his shoulder and he didn't have a sunglasses, but his tone was still casual.
"Mr. Gavin, please call me Detective Skye."
Were it not for my work, I wouldn't say a word to him.
I suddenly spotted a bag of Snackoos, so I just stared at it.
"Do you like this, Fräulein Detective? If so, you can just take it away with you."
"Really? Then I will."
I had to say, those Snackoos were good for relieving my stress. If I ever I didn't feel good, I could easily recover by chewing them.
"By the way, why did I get assigned to you?"
"I just saw your name, Fräulein Detective. I just happened to cooperate with Prosecutor Edgeworth's subordinate once, but he was not so nice as Fräulein Detective."
"Mr. Edgeworth...did you two meet before?"
"Not yet. I have lots of concerts, and he always goes abroad, so that's understandable."
He was right about this. Those two had nothing in common.
"Your band is still not dissolved? It's so amazing. I think you just take it as a hobby."
"I'm used to being inspected by the ladies, but it is the first time to see your (ensnared?) look, Fräulein Detective."
"Mr. Gavin, if you keep saying things like that, I will sue you for sexual harassment."
"Fräulein Detective, I am a prosecutor myself. If you don't have concrete evidence, the court will not accept this."
I felt so angry with his grin, I threw Snackoo at him.
"Ouch. Klavier, is this your assigned detective?"
That voice was a little familiar, so I looked over.
That question mark hairstyle, red jacket, baton. Maybe I met him somewhere before.
Oh, I remembered it. We met each other in Grand Tower.
"Sebastian, do you know her?"
"We met before, but it was so many years ago."
"By the way, why do you know each other?"
They had quite different personality, so it was hard to imagine them knowing each other.
"Fräulein Detective, do you know Themis Legal Academy? I'm classmate with Sebastian."
"Just the academy that you can bribe for high score?"
"That's Professor Means, not Professor Courte."
Then I also met other familiar people.
"Long time no see. Ema, do you still remember me?"
I stared at that defense attorney for a long time, but I didn't see anything off, except her attorney's badge.
But I did feel familiar, but more unfamiliar things.
"Did we meet before?"
"I'm a great thief who only steals the truth, but I'm also a defense attorney now."
Great thief...oh, that girl beside Mr. Edgeworth.
"You are Kay, right? Nice to see you again."
"Ema, I think you want to be a scientific investigator, but why do you work as a detective?"
"Well, I just didn't pass the exam, but the worse thing is that casual man."
I chewed my snackoo and didn't want to talk much about it.
"Who is that prosecutor? I only know Mr. Edgeworth, Ms. von Karma and Sebastian, not anyone else."
"Klavier Gavin. He has so many fans, but he likes to flirt with me. I really feel quite disturbed."
"Wait, what are you talking about...Gavin?"
She suddenly changed her face after hearing that name.
"What's wrong, Kay?"
"Nothing. I used to intern in Gavin Law Offices, and this 'Gavin' is...?"
"Do you think of something?"
"The chief has a little brother, but I didn't meet him before. Is he the prosecutor you are talking about? I heard they are not getting along well with each other."
"Little brother?"
Did Klavier have a brother? I didn't know that before.
"Kay, do you know anyone else in that law office?"
Since she said that, I wanted to know more about it.
"Well, I know someone as the chief's apprentice, and his name is Apollo."
"That's quite a strange name."
But Mr. Wright even sounded "Right", so it was not a big deal.
"That's in the past. Now I'm working in Edgeworth Co. Law Offices."
"Edgeworth?"
"Yes. Mr. Edgeworth's father is a defense attorney, and he had a law office, but now the chief is Mr. Shields."
Just that defense attorney who asked for a hug, but I didn't have anything to say.
"Well, Ema, why do you know Mr. Edgeworth?"
"My sister used to be a chief prosecutor, so I heard about him from her, but later Mr. Edgeworth helped me so much, and it was the same for Mr. Wright."
"Wright? I know Mr. Edgeworth has a friend, but he's a pianist, and he has a daughter. I heard that he used to be a defense attorney."
"What? Mr. Wright has a daughter? And he's a pianist?"
"I don't know about other things, but he cannot play the piano, and he needs his daughter to live a life."
"So he live off his daughter?"
"Anyway, he's just a decadent middle-aged man in casual clothes and stubbly beard. He also wears a woolen hat woven from his daughter to hide his hairstyle."
I internally imagined that scene and felt he lost his spirit.
"Well, Kay, how do you know Mr. Edgeworth?"
"It was Mr. Edgeoworth's first trial, and we met in courthouse. Mr. Edgeworth even lent me something."
"Then I knew Mr. Edgeworth later than you, Kay."
"But then we lost contact for seven years, and then I also went to find him because of some reasons, and it was that time in Gatewaner Land. Mr. Edgeworth finally remembered me after I took out one thing."
"And then you lost your memory, Kay..."
"Ah, that's so awkward. I made Mr. Edgeworth nearly lose his badge, but luckily everything got solved perfectly."
Those everyday thing was the facade of a peaceful life.
Sometimes I gave Kay some information in crime scene and then complained about Klavier's new song.
When Sebastian came, I felt quite amusing to make him cry.
But I couldn't do that too much, or Kay would say harsh things to me.
I hadn't met Mr. Edgeworth or Mr. Wright during that time.
As for Klavier, he was quite a troublesome guy.
He was quite good at his work and band, but he hardly ever stood in court.
Because of that, he had more time to tease me.
Before that thing happened, I always thought Klavier would be so casual.
However, the wheels started to move on.
Note: The story before AJ, some Klema interaction and Kay's information for Ema.
Maybe Klavier, Ema and Sebastian will all think, "How do those two know each other?"
