September 9th, Gourd Lake. 7:30 A.M.
A heavy feeling ran through Edgeworth's mind as he walked around Gourd Lake with his hands covering his head as thoughts of yesterday ran through his mind. A lot of things were brought to his attention that he seriously couldn't sleep last night because the details were so graphic and horrible, combined with his refusal to not even take his usual morning jog around the park. But still here he was, in his usual jogging attire of a white t-shirt and shorts, in the lightly pouring down rain with no umbrella. 'Maybe this is what I need, to make myself sick,' Edgeworth thought to himself as he took in the darkness of the early morning rain watching it give an eerie setting around the wide gourd-shaped lake that earned it's name sake.
'Why do I do this, why do I become what many in the community defile me for?' Edgeworth asked himself as he took a seat on the bench, 'Why didn't my heart stop me from refusing to help them when the writing was on the wall that I should've.'
He thought back to the confrontation he had last night with Mia Fey, Phoenix Wright, Maya Fey, and Daniel Reagan they were back at Fey and Co. Law Offices to hear Daniel share some startling details about Redd White and Bluecorp and how they practically committed every death-penalty level crime in the book. Daniel himself had just as much evidence to share about Bluecorp as Mia Fey did when she began her vendetta against Bluecorp, albeit for her own personal reasons.
For a slight moment, his thoughts got interrupted by the sight of what appeared to be a young mother holding an umbrella with one hand and pushing a baby cart on another hand, making her way towards him via the rain canopy that the park provided for the guests. The mother herself looked beautiful in her silken stands of red hair, blue eyes and a face that could break the hearts of many men if they found the ring on her finger. There was a fair distance between her and Edgeworth as he gave his attention to her picking up the infant from the carriage, the infant himself still looked like a newborn but was thankfully not a fussy one as he got picked up to be fed his breakfast.
Deep inside Edgeworth, he felt his heart go even heavier as he watched this scene, 'Oh my God what have I done?' he asked himself in a silent scream as his mind began to travel back to last night to the confrontation he had with Mia, Phoenix, and Daniel.
Flashback to Fey and Co. Law Offices September 9th 7:30 P.M.
To say the tension that went around the office was enough to make a baby cry was an understatement, as both Daniel and Mia were finished trading information that they had found over the years regarding Bluecorp and Redd White's involvement in some crimes that could even make a Catholic preacher cringe with shame. Wright, Edgeworth, and Maya had spent a better part of the day after the trial reading over this info so as to get a better understanding of Mia and Daniels crusade against Bluecorp. Maya in particular had lost her lunch when she came across one of Daniel's reports of how Bluecorp had ties to drugs, illegal firearms with the worst of their doing was child kidnappings and selling them for sex.
"Crimes like this, you would think that someone would've stood up and made arrests against Bluecorp, don't you think?" Phoenix asked as he poured some coffee
"Yeah that would be the common sense thing to do, wouldn't it?" Daniel replied as he lit up a cigarette upon Mia's approval.
"But what stopped you from going to INTERPOL and reporting the crime?" Edgeworth asked while Daniel took his first drag.
It was Phoenix who replied, "Shouldn't it be obvious, Edgeworth?"
Edgeworth looked at him confusingly before Phoenix continued "The answer is in the question especially on my body."
"Your body? How would your body be involved in this case?" Edgeworth asked with his attention to Wright.
"Well if you were to go back to the night before the murder, how Redd White initially planned to kill Mia but instead made his attack on me," Nick replied while drinking his coffee "from checking my body last night, there are still some bruises on my chest and back to tell the tale on how the bruises got on me."
"Initially while at the hospital, Nick said he wanted to press charges on White but I told him that it was best to wait until I made a way to press charges against him," Mia cut in while getting a cup of coffee herself "Should consider myself lucky that I saved all the articles that were related to Bluecorp before Redd stole the evidence."
Amongst the crowd, Maya decided to cut in and asked Mia "Then maybe you can explain to me this note I found at Rosenberg's earlier."
"Huh? What note are you talking about?" Phoenix asked while Maya went to her purse and began to pull out the note.
"I found this note before we left for the taxi, it was found under Rosenberg's desk." Maya replied while passing the note around to the entire room.
The contents of that note were of course the same note that Redd White had found after he took The Thinker back to Bluecorp the night when he tried to kill Mia. The reaction around the room was pretty mixed when the note got passed around, each person wearing either a shocked reaction or even an angry reaction, but when Mia got her chance to read that note, "I didn't write this, Maya."
Phoenix got confused "What do you mean, you didn't write this, I've read your handwriting before and this has to be your handwriting."
"Phoenix does have a good point, and I just started reading your handwriting on your Bluecorp notes earlier tonight." Miles said with a glare to her.
"But I swear to you, I didn't take the papers out of The Thinker, I left them in because I was in a hurry to get to the courtroom the other day," Mia replied with frustration in her voice.
"How can you be so sure, sis?" Maya asked her tone being a little gentler, "Usually you leave the door locked whenever there's no one else at the office or otherwise, unless you had another key Phoenix."
Nick replied with a nod "You're right about the extra key, but remember, I had the day off that day and I was out playing cards."
"Never miss a chance to play cards do you, Phoenix?" Miles asked bemusedly while flashing back to their school days.
"Give me a break, Miles, I'm trying to pay for a new car," Nick replied before Daniel, who was finished with reading the note, decided to cut in.
"Actually fellas, Mia is right, she didn't write the note."
The entire room practically went "WHAAAAAAT!?"
Daniel didn't flinch as he continued "I'm good at reading handwriting and I know this was not hers."
"But her penmanship is so obvious on this note, how can you be so sure it was someone else?" asked Edgeworth with disbelief in his voice.
"Because I met with the person who wrote this, the same person who walked in and replaced the evidence the day before the murder."
Five minutes were full of pin drop silence as the realization sunk in that there could've been only one person who probably could've shared Mia Fey's penmanship, and with tear filled eyes Maya this time spoke "How cruel a person are you, Danny?"
"Maya, what the hell are you talking about?" Phoenix asked while making a move to hug her when she cried.
"Our mother was declared dead seven years after she disappeared, no one has been able to find her since," rage had filled Maya at this point "and you mean to tell me that she would just waltz right in and deliberately take the evidence from The Thinker?"
"I know it's a sensitive issue for you, but I swear to you she was the one who wrote the note and met with me to give the evidence," Daniel said knowing that this wouldn't change her reaction much.
Miles himself practically went livid and said "You really expect us to actually believe that someone would come back from the dead and basically make a revenge kill?" and then he looked at Mia and said it "I should put you back in jail right now."
"Why the fuck are you getting angry at Mia over this!?" yelled Phoenix as he glared at Edgeworth.
"Because this note is evidence enough to have her listed as an accomplice to Rosenberg's murder," Edgeworth replied with a glare of his own.
"You know our alibi checked out when we proved to you that when the murder occurred, she was with me getting my fucking painkillers," said Phoenix in a near yell "And with April May telling you who the exact murderer was, you're still pinning the blame on Mia for Sam's murder?"
"Technically you can't try me for the same crime out of double jeopardy, and you and I both know that, Edgeworth," Mia said before Edgeworth began to leave for the door.
Before walking out the room, Edgeworth turned to face them and said "True, but I also still have my right as a Prosecutor to not press charges."
Phoenix however wouldn't have it as he angrily followed Edgeworth to the hallway and forcefully turned him around "We have a lot of dead people by suicide and little children out there who are practically being used as sex toys by Bluecorp and you're gonna walk out on this?"
"Please, after Maya showing the note and with Mia and Daniel denying that she wrote it, you'd think I'd believe that Bluecorp got involved with all those crimes?" Edgeworth replied while returning to his cold demeanor, "To think I almost trusted you guys with helping me bring down a big criminal."
"HELLO! Redd White is the biggest criminal out there right now and almost every newspaper has connected him to every major suicide, blackmail, and his crimes against children," Phoenix this time yelled loud enough for the entire building to hear "WASN'T IT YOU THAT HAD SUCH A PASSIONATE HATE FOR CRIMINALS, THIS CRIMINAL IS PROBABLY YOUR BIGGEST CATCH!"
"YOU'RE GOD DAMN RIGHT I HAVE A PASSIONATE HATE FOR CRIMINALS," Edgeworth returned with a yell of his own "BUT I ALSO HAVE JUST A PASSIONATE HATE FOR LIARS AND THE WAY I SEE IT, MIA WAS LYING ABOUT NOT KILLING ROSENBURG, I CANNOT TRY HER FOR THE SAME CRIME, BUT I CAN REFUSE TO HELP HER AND I DON'T CARE WHAT FACTS ARE THERE, I'D MUCH RATHER HAVE A KILLER GO FREE THAN TO DEAL WITH A LIAR!."
That was when Phoenix grabbed Miles by the throat, pinned him on the wall and lowered his voice to where only he can hear it, "And if there's one thing, I really can't stand either, is people who have the mindset of a Republican and that was exactly what you just proved to me when you said that. Believe it or not, after you left my elementary school a long time ago, I had been reading about your father while I was studying to become an attorney, and right now I'm more than certain that he's rolling in his fucking grave right now."
Edgeworth in a fit of rage had balled his right fist and punched Phoenix on his still bruised ribs, which of course caused him to let go of Edgeworth as he went to fall on the floor. Before he finally went to walk out, Edgeworth grabbed Wright by the shirt and angrily whispered "Don't you ever talk about my father like that again, do you understand." He finally exited Fey and Co. Law Offices without waiting for an answer.
Back to the Present
"Sir are you okay?" a female voice began to phase Edgeworth out of his flashback.
He snapped his attention to the same red haired woman who was still holding her now fed son, and began to shake his head and let out a little cough as he was brought back to reality.
"Oh good you're still alive, I was wondering if you were dead after you kept staring at me," she said while he did his actions.
"Oh was I staring at you?" Edgeworth asked apologetically "Sorry about that, my mind was on something else while I was staring at you."
"No it's okay, I've kinda already gotten used to it, especially after giving birth to this little guy." she gave a kiss on the little infants forehead.
The next few minutes were between Edgeworth and the mother talking about themselves, as they walked along the park with the rain long since stopped, it still felt very cold and gray around the park, but it was the perfect environment for what still ran through Edgeworth's mind which was warming up thanks to the angelic personality the woman was providing for him. To the woman, Edgeworth had a pretty good career to work with compared to her being the housewife of a faithful husband who worked as a manager at a Best Buy. To Edgeworth, the fact that she and her husband were having a stable life was more than enough to be envious towards her, which in turn caused her to giggle some. Both of them were about to reach the parking lot outside of Gourd Lake where their respective cars were at, which both were coincidentally parked side by side each other, and that's when it happened.
Thank God neither party were directly inside their cars when it did happen, but not five steps did they walk to that direction when 'BOOOOOM' came the loud explosion from Edgeworth's car followed by another explosion from the car that belonged to the lady with the infant. Reaction was instantaneous as both the woman and the child began to bawl in reaction to the scene, Edgeworth on the other hand was in a shock as he gazed at the fiery scene that came out of both cars, ignorant of their cries. But then he realized something, he had a good idea of who was behind the planting of that car bomb, so he reached in his shorts pocket for his phone and watch and proceeded to throw them in the flames of his car.
"What are you doing?" the lady asked while he did so.
"My car was rigged with explosives behind my back, someone wanted me dead," Edgeworth then looked at her and said "I know it's gonna sound crazy but if you have a phone or a watch throw it in your car."
"Why would I need to do that?" she asked
"Because the people that rigged my car can also track my phone and I'm pretty sure they'll track yours too, if you get rid of your phone it'll give them the illusion that you're dead."
The fact that Edgeworth was a man who took his job seriously was enough for her to trust him and follow his command, Edgeworth volunteered to grab the baby as they ran away from the scene of the explosion with the intent for Edgeworth to find a pay-phone. What they got instead when they began to leave was a black Ford Mustang making a stop towards the three and the driver began to open the window.
"Get in guys, I'll get you out of here," said the voice of Daniel Reagan as his face appeared out of the open window.
Edgeworth would later make arrangements to both the woman and her husband about paying for a new car, a new phone, and new baby items out of apology for the woman.
September 10 Bluecorp Offices 12:30 P.M.
It was end of Redd White's scheduled lunch time as he took an elevator to re-enter his office, so far to his mind, it seemed like a perfect day for him. He had just finished lunch with some people who were carrying out a few favors for him and both him and their view, they carried out that favor flawlessly. During the elevator ride to his office, Redd's mind was thinking back to what had been happening the past few days when this whole fiasco started, the trial specifically. One of his eyes had been notified of April May's failure to bring Mia Fey to the execution line with her testimonies, but what he didn't count on, was that certain attorney that he abused, to serve both Edgeworth and the Judge Mia Fey's 'Get out of Jail Free Card' via those Pharmacy Receipts. So upon finding out that not only did that porcupine attorney provided their evidence to get Mia out of jail but that Edgeworth was rumored to about to be working with that attorney to bring him down, he made a few phone calls to those people who he just had lunch with, to deal with the problem.
Right now there was no reason for him to be angry anymore as he got out of the elevator and walked to the direction of the desk that once belonged to April May, now cleaned out to it's bare self, a foregone conclusion that neither party knew she would never be back 'It won't take me long to get a new secretary though, maybe get someone a little more pre-pubescent.' he thought to himself as he opened his office door. To his greatest horror, he walked into see a certain man who he thought more than anything to have been dead. But he saw him sitting on the chair behind his gold painted crafted desk, this time in his usual dark red suit, with the black vest/boots and white buttoned-up shirt with the dinner napkin collar.
"How did your lunch go?" Edgeworth asked after Redd walked in the door and reveled in his horror and continued "Scary ain't it?"
Redd felt too speechless to answer both questions and was practically in a tremble when Edgeworth said "You see Rosenberg? He's wandering around here somewhere."
Miles nearly coughed out a chuckle when Redd White began to drop his suitcase out of fear that he may have meant every word he said, "I'm kidding, White, lighten up, it's not like you to be so scared out of your wits."
Upon taking Edgeworth's advice, Redd decided to speak up "Miles Edgeworth, my boy, how have you been doing? It's been awhile since I seen you."
"It has been hasn't it?" Edgeworth replied as he walked up to Redd's direction "Like during the annual Christmas party that you would invite people from all sectors of the law to attend to, if I recall."
"I still plan to headline this years party if you want to join me, we're thinking about honoring you with an Award that day," Redd picked up his suitcase and walked over to his desk which housed the wine cooler "Not often do I have a guest come into my office with my busy schedule and all, but would you like a drink?"
"No thank you, White, you know full well that I don't drink," Miles replied while Redd poured himself a glass of wine "but to answer your question on how I've been doing, you can say I've been busy with a lot of cases."
"Oh I'm sure you have, Edgeworth, been hearing that you lost to a rookie attorney."
"I wouldn't call it a loss, more like a dismissal due to lack of evidence," Miles took out what looked like a red folder "But during that time, I've been doing some reading, which as a prosecutor you don't do very often."
"Really?" Redd said with intrigue "What exactly have you been reading?"
"A very enticing memorandum about a company funneling money to a combination of drug lords and child sex rings," Miles said with a smirk as Redd had to spit his wine out and let out a cough at that sentence "An oldie but a goodie if I may say so myself."
"Are you gonna need a doctor for that cough, Mr. White?" Miles asked with a near chuckling smirk.
"I don't know what joke you're trying to pull on me, Edgeworth," Redd said while trying to recover.
"What joke are you talking about?"
"Those types of operations are against the standards of Bluecorp, you have nothing to prove with those documents."
"Oh really?" Edgeworth faked a shock "I must've gotten the company wrong, I didn't realize that a different Redd White was the one who wrote those checks, it's a drag I got documents dating all the way back to 2001, what am I gonna do with 'em,"
Redd proceeded to reach the phone "Are you asking me to call your Chief Prosecutor?"
"Oh I would insist you'd do so, let her know how you knew that Samuel Rosenberg was calling Mia Fey, or better yet let's find out who tapped her phone when she called her sister," Miles said with a glare to Redd.
Not once had Redd ever got intimidated in his career but he lightly flinched over Edgeworth's glare as he said "Even if those documents are authentic, I doubt you could prove how they would link me to Mia Fey and Samuel Rosenberg."
Miles wouldn't have it "Maybe not, but I still got April May in protective custody and I can let her walk free when she testifies that you killed Rosenberg, had planned to kill Mia Fey, and had tapped those phones."
"This conversation is over, Edgeworth."
Edgeworth raised his voice at this point "I AM NOT A GUY THAT YOU KILL, I'M A GUY THAT BELONGS TO A PART OF LAW ENFORCEMENT THAT YOU BRIBE, ARE YOU REALLY THAT FUCKING STUPID THAT YOU DON'T SEE WHAT I AM, I COULD'VE BEEN THE EASIEST PART OF THIS GOD DAMN MURDER CASE AND YOU'RE GONNA KILL ME?!"
"Hey will you be quiet, practically everyone in the building heard you scream," Redd said hoping to cool this off "Maybe we can cut a deal that can make it all go away."
"A deal huh?" Edgeworth lowered his voice grudgingly "Okay let's talk about deals, what do you want? an asylum at a foreign country or a heads up on a drug lord being tried in court? I tried to put Mia Fey in the execution line for five hundred grand from your own personal wallet and you're gonna kill me?"
"No, it's not what I want, it's more about what you want," Redd replied with a flinch "Is there at least a number to it?"
"25 would be the number I'm thinking about."
"25? 25 what?" Redd's skin really whitened at the realization "Where the hell do you think I'm gonna get 25 Million dollars?"
"You know what's even better about this memo, if you remember who signed it at the bottom, it'd be a shame for to have us go to Chief Damon Gant and see if the police department wants to continue funding to Bluecorp's charities for adoption."
What Edgeworth had just said put the final nail on the coffin for Redd White's plan for a negotiation with him, he knew now that there was no other choice but to agree with paying off Edgeworth. "I promise you that you will receive the money in a personal offshore account first thing tomorrow morning."
That was when Edgeworth began to let out a big laugh which led to Redd thinking that Edgeworth was really pulling his leg, for fifteen straight minutes there was nothing but laughter from both Redd and Edgeworth until the latter calmed down like a snap of a twig and said with an evil smile "You're really fucked now."
"What?" Redd slowed down his laugh as he replied.
"I said, you're fucked," Edgeworth repeated as Gumshoe and Daniel Reagan appeared from the door with some people in police uniform as they approached Redd White and arrested him.
"You planned it this the whole time?" Redd asked while taking in the shock of him being arrested.
"I told you before, White, you don't ever fuck with a guy like me, I have a hatred for criminals, liars, and traitors and now you are gonna pay," Miles got up close and looked at him with a sinister whisper before looking at Gumshoe "Tell him the charge and read him his rights, I'll expect him in court first thing tomorrow morning."
"Yes sir," Gumshoe replied as he proceeded to do what was ordered of him.
Walking over to Daniel Reagan, Edgeworth gave him back the phone that belonged to the Private Investigator "Did you get every word of that conversation?"
"Every word of it, clear and crystal," he replied he took the phone from Edgeworth's hands "You okay?"
"Yeah I am, I just gotta get some air and I really need to get me a new phone," Edgeworth replied while getting his overcoat on "I expect both Phoenix Wright and Mia Fey in court tomorrow to give their testimony about Redd's actions the day before the murder."
"Don't worry, I'll let them know, and we'll see you in court tomorrow okay," Danny replied as Edgeworth began to make his exit out of Bluecorp.
