Klapollo Ace Attorney *Apollo justice*

"The Final Piece Of Evidence"

Apollo took in a deep, deep breathe, and gathered up all of his thoughts, ..it was now or never, now or ever!!

'...As his next move, Dr. Meraktis... ...stole Guy Eldoon's noodle stand!'

'What, "killing" me disturbed him that much? So much he randomly stole a noodle stand!?'

she said in a voice full of venom, but that wasn't about to stop apollo

'It wasn't so "random". Remember all the bowls in the clinic's foyer? Bowls that belonged inside that stand? I think it's pretty obvious, don't you? That stand was at the clinic. However, the question is why did he remove the bowls?'

'Maybe... because the stand was heavy?'

trucy guessed

'Or he wanted to put something in the stand in their place...'

apollo added, the judge's eyes widen

'Ah... Wait, you don't mean...!'

he nodded

'I do. Dr. Meraktis did replace those bowls with something... ...your "corpse", Ms. Tiala!'

Alita eyes narrowed nervously at his words

'M-My "corpse"!?'

'Dr. Meraktis panicked. He thought he'd killed you...'

'...His next move would be to dispose of the body!'

klavier added, as calm as ever, alita gritted her teeth and started to sweat nervously

'Th-That's crazy talk! You're all crazy!'

apollo semi-glared at her

'Then let's think about it... logically. The doctor had a place to dispose of you in mind... ...But on the way there... ...who should he run into but the defendant, Wocky Kitaki!'

'OBJECTION!'

klavier grinned a little as he snapped his fingers in a rhythm like motion

'...I question your "logic"'

he added playfully, apollo glowered at him, he hated it whenever he did that, and he barely even knew the guy

'What's this, Prosecutor Gavin?'

'The park is a dead end. Why would he head in that direction to begin with?'

alita chuckly chimed in

'That's right! He had no reason to go there! ...Oh, now I get it! It was a trick! That spoiled brat made him do it! He made the doctor steal the stand!'

'OBJECTION!!'

apollo yelled

'Tell me... Why would someone go to a "dead end"? ...Unless the park was his destination!'

'Wh-What...?'

the judge shrugged in his chair

'Apparently, the defense has an idea. Tell us where Dr. Meraktis was heading with the stand! Here, please show us on this diagram. To where exactly was the victim dragging that stand?'

apollo walked over to the diagram and pointed at the river, if his calculations were right, they should be in the clear

'There? That's a... a river!'

he nodded

;Yes, Your Honor. I scarcely need to explain why'

klavier played along

'...A perfect place to dispose of a body'

Alita eyes widen in surprise, a little startled from the suddenly knew information, apollo couldn't blame her to much, after all, finding out you were going to be pushed into a river wasn't exactly a comforting thought
