The sterile white lights of the courtroom buzzed overhead, throwing long, sharp shadows across the witness stand. A small child sat perched on a wooden box, eyes glistening with unshed tears, framed by the anxious, sweating bulk of Detective Gumshoe. Across the aisle, Miles Edgeworth stood rigid in his tailored crimson suit, his sharp gray eyes narrowing with cold disbelief. The air grew dense, thick with anticipation, as the Judge's gavel cracked sharply against the sound block. Edgeworth adjusted his cravat, his expression shifting from icy disdain to a strained, patient mask. His fingers tapped a faint, restless rhythm against the wooden rail as he looked down at the trembling witness.
