Good day. This is Miles Edgeworth.

I cannot accommodate you at the moment, but please leave a message and I will respond as soon as possible.

Of course, I would be eating! If I didn't, I would be really hungry by now!

[Hmmmm] But all I had was a lot of soup though. Isn't that usually suppose to be what helps you make you feel better too?

[That...wasn't what I meant.]

Yes, but do try to eat something more substantial if you can.

You mean like an apple or something? I could try that too but um...

[Mumble mumble]

....I...haven't really eaten much outside of soup though. I'm just not very hungry lately.

Yes, an apple would be a start. Try to eat something else besides soup, little by little.

Then what about you? If you were sick, what kind of stuff would you eat?

Because you must have eaten some pretty amazing stuff if you were able to jump out a window!

Urk...!

[He did not need to be reminded of that.]

That...was the book I read in that library. [Edgeworth clears his throat to regain his composure.] I normally don't jump out of windows.

Yeah but it still sounds like you must have drank a lot of milk or ate some stuff that made you really strong!

You still jumped out of that window and didn't get hurt! [Just saying!]

Unless you must have been that strong already!

It was a low window. And I was lucky that I still had enough sense to choose it rather than the higher ones.

Still! Low or not, it's still pretty cool! I'm probably going to write a story about that because it looked like you were a secret agent or a spy!

Would you like to be in a story, Edgeworth-san?

Er...I'd prefer to be in my own story, thank you.

[The story of my life, that is.]

But wouldn't you be interested? I'll make sure you end up being really cool! Don't you want to be like that?

No. As far as I know, I'm already who I want to be.

[He sounds serious about that.]

[Pause]

...Then what are you already? If I'm allowed to ask?

I'm a prosecutor. [And because he's aware that he's speaking to a child:] Do you know what a prosecutor is, Takeru?

Uh....kind of? I remember Phoenix-san saying something about that when I went to his law class! It was kind of interesting...but kind of boring too!

[/blunt]

[Perhaps Wright needs to further hone his teaching skills, if Takeru finds his lessons boring.]

I see. What did you learn from his class? [He's curious as to how Phoenix fared as a teacher.]

[Notice that long pause?]

Uh...something about how the person in trial has a right to a lawyer and they need to be proven guilty? And that they need to be careful on what they say because they can use it against them?

I don't know, I kind of fell asleep halfway through. [Which was kind of mean of him wasn't it?]

[That talk with Wright is sorely needed.]

The prosecutor is the one whose job it is to prove the guilt of the one accused of a crime. And the defense attorney is the lawyer who must fight for his or her client's innocence.

So the prosecutor and the defense attorney need to prove if the person is guilty or not right?

I think I remember him saying that too! And that the jury needs to make the final decision from what they hear too I think!

That's right. Some countries do not make use of a jury, and in those cases, it is the judge who renders the final decision.

Well I guess that seems fair.

But it sounds like the judge has a lot of pressure on him! And to make the final decision! I don't think I can handle a job like that! Or being a lawyer too!

You learn through studying and experience. It is a difficult job, but not impossible.

As is, of course, being a lawyer.
