Klapollo Ace Attorney *Apollo justice*

"Daryan Being A Dick"

'Some things were found at the crime scene after yesterday's trial'

the Judge raised his brow at him

'What things?'

'The first was this small device...'

he said as he took it out from his bag, and presented it to the court, Klavier examined it closely with his eyes

'...That's the remote-triggered igniter'

'Correct. And... one more thing'

he took out the burnt from his bag as well, the judge stared in bewilderment 

'What are those? The remains of something burnt? Not another guitar, I hope!?'

'Traces of gunpowder were found on these fragments. We have a report that it was something like a firecracker'

klavier simply explained, apollo stared a bit at him in awe

"How did Gavin know about this...?"

Klavier smirked at apollo when he saw him staring a little

'What? You think Detective Skye works for you? I received the report this morning, before coming here. That's when I made my decision, actually'

'What decision is this, Prosecutor Gavin?'

'I registered Daryan as a witness in today's trial. ...Just in case'

Daryan shot him a look, apollo held back the urge to rip off daryan's stupid hairstyle right off his scalp

'This raises another possibility. Those gunshot-like sounds during the third set... ...could have been two firecrackers rigged to go off by remote control!'

Daryan leaned back as he laughed 

'Ha ha! You got an active imagination, don't you? But you shouldn't say every little thing you think. Your explanation there seems a bit too convenient to me'

'How so?'

he challeneged

'So, you're saying these firecrackers just happened to go off... ...right when two witnesses came walking by? Hah!'

Apollo bit his tongue, trucy humped but couldn't disagree either

'That's right! Daryan was out on stage when it happened, Apollo! How would he know someone was backstage right then!?'

'If a firecracker goes off in the forest, and there's no one there to hear... You get my drift! Why go through the trouble, man!?'

apollo held back the urge to bite his thumb

"How do I explain this...?"

Klavier saw apollo's panicked expression and decided to slide him a little advice

'...He may not look it, but Daryan is a gifted detective. Show any weakness, and he's sure to find it;

he added with a wink, not the usual smug kind, more so genuine, apollo held back a little smile at this, and almost chuckled when he said "may not look it", daryan however, wasn't as amused by this

'"He may not look it", partner? Gee, thanks, man'

Klavier continued on as if he didn't hear him

'...That reminds me. I happened to pass through that very hallway several times that day myself. And I saw something odd there just before the third set'

'Something... odd?'

'A headset. The kind all of the band and staff members were wearing'

that's when the image flashed into apollo's head, triggering the memory
