Ace Attorney Investigations: Ema Skye: Turnabout of the Stars (Kirby/Ace Attorney Quest)

Reader mode
[X] Examine the floor.

We must check for footprints. Had someone entered the room after the explosion? We need to rule out that possibility. I doubt anyone was present during the explosion, or else we would've already seen his or her remains. Or perhaps we could find some footprints or other clues indicating that someone left the station immediately prior to the explosion?

EDIT: *Facepalm* I've just realized that the explosion didn't take place inside. :whistle: Still, my vote remains valid.

    • [X] The restrooms
    [Satisfied for now, I divert my attention to a nearby door with a broken label displaying two differently-shaped Cappy silhouettes side-by-side.]


    Ema
    (This must be the restroom. For a small-town gas station like this, I'd be surprised if it wasn't a single-stall, especially since it's apparently unisex.)

    [Carefully pushing the door aside, I take a peek inside the restroom.]


    Ema
    (...And wouldn't you know it, the restroom survived. Though I suppose you can't really burn toilets or sinks, so...makes sense. Not like I'd give the plumbing a test-run, though.)


    (Let's inspect this area scientifically. No stone unturned, nothing suspicious left alone!)

    [The toilet and sink are practically undamaged, but the structure around the sink's plumbing has collapsed, and the mirror above the sink is cracked.
    A spot for a small window is high up on the wall, the glass and frame blown apart.
    Electrical wiring and pipes are exposed through parts of the wall where the wood has burned away.
    The layer of soot and ash is not as thick compared to the rest of the gas station.]

    [] Examine a part of the area (Write-in one thing/spot to examine, please be specific)
    [] Gather my thoughts (Use Logic to construct hypotheses)
    [] Move on to the next area: a corner containing what's left of what must've once been a table
    Unnecessary filler, or potentially vital evidence waiting to be discovered?

    Whatever the case, you can rest assured that these inspections are not one-time only events. We can go back and inspect them as many times as we need to in order to get the answers we need.

    Was someone (besides us) in here during/after the explosion?

    Ema
    (Part of the wiring and plumbing in the wall has been exposed.)
    (The heat from the fire has melted the insulating sheaths, and so I'm better off not touching those naked wires. I don't know if the power's been cut yet.)
    [X] Examine a part of the area: the structure around the sink's plumbing

    Ema
    (It's not in as bad of a condition as the counter outside, but the vanity's fallen apart nonetheless.)

    (All that's inside here is what must've been a bucket. It's mostly melted now, but it might've been there to catch leaks. At least there aren't any crowbars here.)

    (The mirror's all cracked, too. There's no cabinet or secret alcove behind it...just bare wall beneath the glass. Phooey.)
    [X] Examine the window.

    Ema
    (This window got busted too. Shards of wood and glass inside the room...just like the other one.)

    (All that's missing...are the shards next to the wall. There aren't any here at this window...)


    Glass Shards
    Type: Evidence
    Discovered at the Gus Station Ruins.

    Glass Shards data jotted down in my Notepad.


    Ema
    (It's a lot smaller, too... I think only small animals would be able to squeeze through if it was open. Looks like it was just here for ventilation, not for looking outside.)

    (All in all, this window passes my Appropriate Bathroom Window Seal of Approval!)

    (...If only it wasn't broken.)
    [x] Examine a part of the area: The layer of soot and ash is not as thick compared to the rest of the gas station.

    Ema
    (Interesting... The soot and ash are so thin here, I can actually see parts of the floor. Maybe this room didn't burn so much as it got cooked from the fire's heat.)

    (I guess that makes sense. Other than the walls and floor, there's not much to burn in here as there is outside.)

    You've got until Wednesday at 3 PM CST to interrupt that dummy vote.

    As usual, the Status / Inventory post has been updated with the new Evidence.

    [With nothing more of note to examine, I leave the restroom and check out a different corner of the gas station.]


    Ema
    (Eeesh...this looks even worse than the counter. I think this USED to be a table...and that's all I can tell, really.)

    (There's so much rubble here that it's hard to really identify anything else. But...I suppose I'd better try...)

    (Let's inspect this area scientifically. No stone unturned, nothing suspicious left alone!)

    [The "table" is little more than a big pile of nails and charred wood.
    Tiny bits of melted plastic are scattered about.
    Another window is nearby as well, broken like all the others.
    There's soot and ash everywhere, making Ema leave easily distinct footprints everywhere she steps here.]

    Doen't sound too unusual in a burned building, but might be worth checking out. Is it possible to discern whether that was one broken item or several different items? Did the plastic drip over the soot or is it mixed with it?
