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.

What made it so odd?

[Edgeworth keeps writing. Hiro and Kashuu, huh...but the other two were people Phoenix didn't know.]

[bewrightback]

Well, we all found ourselves on what looked like the setting of some kind of really shady film complete with a video camera. There was also a broken down robot with a love for birds and one companion's hair, and we also found some hidden laboratory areas.

[prosecutory]

[...what kinda robot is that.]

Did you find anything of note in these laboratory areas?

[bewrightback]

[A snuffbot, of course.]

Well, there was a lot of technology in there, unlike anything we've seen from CERES. There was also another robot that was turned off, but it was similar to those servant robots according to Hiro. Some AI-related materials were also missing from one of the shelves. And... we also found this odd orb that ended up being our ticket out of there.

[prosecutory]

How so?

[He's still writing. Even if he could just be typing this up, nothing beats good ol' writing.]

[bewrightback]

Well... That's one of the odd parts. When we touched it, it ended up teleporting us outside. But it showed us this strange vision first - of what seemed to be a dead world. And we heard something about... about someone waiting for someone else.

[prosecutory]

A dead world...

[Edgeworth pauses briefly before carrying on with writing.]

Did it look familiar in any way?

[bewrightback]

Well... No. I mean, I'm no astrologist, but it just looked very... barren, and featureless.

[prosecutory]

So, it wasn't the same world you saw before the Powerpoint presentation and your very first arrival in Cerealia?

[bewrightback]

[He rubs at his head uncertainly.]

...I don't know. I don't... think so?

[prosecutory]

I see.

Someone waiting for someone else...you say you heard it. Can you describe the voice?

[bewrightback]

... The voice that said "Wait for me" sounded... I want to say robotic? [He squints as he tries to remember.] Beyond that, I can't really remember for sure.

[prosecutory]

If that's all you remember...

[Edgeworth closes his eyes briefly and groans softly.]

We will need to speak to the others who disappeared. They were probably sent to different locations.

[bewrightback]

[He nods.]

Right. That sounds like the most likely possibility... Who knows what other kinds of clues they might have found!

[prosecutory]

We can only imagine what else they discovered...or what sort of places they were in.

You mentioned that Hiro escaped with you; let's see if we can contact the others now.

[bewrightback]

That's right! [He nods.] Let's go figure it out, Edgeworth! [He pulls out his cerevice as he turns to leave.]

[prosecutory]

I'll let you know if I find out anything new.

[He nods as well.]

Till then.
