Can I look at the bracelet?
Cronk: Just a bracelet I have. Again, nothing much.

Apophyx: Are you alright? You’re sweating bullets.
Cronk: Bullets…!? Where!?
http://i.imgur.com/0ECN1pW.png
Apophyx: It’s a figure of speech, Cronk. Your voice sounds strained and raspy, too.
Cronk: My brain feels strained and raspy, sir.

Apophyx: Should we refresh on Cross-Examinations then?
Okay.
Yeah, go for it.
Apophyx: OK, here we go.
There’s a difference between “pressing” and “presenting.”
This, for example, is a question we can press. Highlight the question if you want to press it. Majority rules on which question is pressed.
Pressing this witness statement will lead to more info you can use, which will lead too…
PRESENTING
Presenting is when you highlight a statement and give a piece of evidence that refutes it. Say, for example, I say “YOU’RE NOT AN ATTORNEY!”
You can simply present the Attorney’s badge to refute it.
STATEMENTS
Sometimes, a character leaves a statement in dialogue with no questions asked. When this happens, simply give your thoughts or opinions. That way, the game can continue. The game comes to a halt when no responses happen, so responses must be made.
Make sense?
Yeah.
Right, now start pressing the witness!
Kahi: I am a pianist by trade… yet I can hardly play at all.
My real job is to take on interested customers over at the poker table.
The room where we play and the competition in there are the club’s main attractions.
The rules are simple: we play a game of poker using two decks of cards.
That’s all it is… a game. And our customers are happy.
#~COURT RECORD~

-Bracelet: This weird thing around my arm. Not sure what it does.
-Poker Results: Ask to see.

Cronk: What do you mean you can’t play?
http://i.imgur.com/TINZ9lz.png
Kahi: Oh, I can play if a customer wants it. I just know one song though. That’s usually all they need.

Cronk: (You’re joking, right?)

Kahi: Being a “pianist” is a mask, of course. A respectable face I wear to cover up my true job…

Cronk: Wait so the crime scene is an attraction?
http://i.imgur.com/G6GvVR2.png
Kahi: Yeah. CommiClub Pub used to be a communist mobster hang out in the past.

Venom: A smoky room, gambling hoods. You know… Just looking at this picture makes me feel “bad”!

Kahi: The bosses gather around the table, cutting deals, safe from the eyes of the law… Meanwhile, a goon keeps watch through the small window… I can practically picture it now.
http://i.imgur.com/OVPx9mM.png
Cronk: (A window? I wonder if someone could watch out through that.)
http://i.imgur.com/TINZ9lz.png
Kahi: The room had a few other tricks to it… Though it was common knowledge to our regulars. At any rate, they come to play poker in a room steeped in history. Despite the dark past, it was all just good, clean fun.

Cronk: Two decks?

Kahi: Yeah, to stop cheating. If you alternate between the two different colored decks, you can pin-point a cheat.

Cronk: So they pay you just so they can play poker?
http://i.imgur.com/G6GvVR2.png
Kahi: Yep. What suckers. They always lose to me. I’m a professional!
http://i.imgur.com/XgrupXv.png
Jogn: Too much pride if you ask me.
http://i.imgur.com/ugCLIhu.png
Kahi: I played in that room for seven years. I never. Lost. Once.

Cronk: Wait huh?

Kahi: You see why the customers come now? To “defeat the undefeated.” I’m quite a draw.

press this to please

Cronk: So you claim there was no gambling.
http://i.imgur.com/G6GvVR2.png
Kahi: Right on the dot, Cronk. Say, you’ve gotten better at investigating. Maybe you should have been a lawyer instead of a detective. Oh well, life choices.
http://i.imgur.com/6peyUol.png
Cronk: So no money.
http://i.imgur.com/waFjC0J.png
Kahi: The only thing at stake in our game… was pride itself.
http://i.imgur.com/EGlBI1J.jpg
Venom: Ho ho! Well put, Mr. Nuva. I’ve got a mind to play a hand of poker myself… The stakes: your fate!
http://i.imgur.com/wuJ0HCh.png
Cronk: (Can we get back to the trial now?)
http://i.imgur.com/fsBcfmA.png
Apophyx: So what did you find out?
Cronk: The basics of the case, but that’s about it. Nothing else.
http://i.imgur.com/0ECN1pW.png
Apophyx: That’s because you’re not trying hard enough. Try to press him a bit more.
Cronk: I don’t know what to ask him about yet…
http://i.imgur.com/0ECN1pW.png
Apophyx: Kahi. There’s something I’d like made clear. Namely, your connection to the case at hand. And I’d like to hear it from you.
http://i.imgur.com/TINZ9lz.png
Kahi: Sure. Anything to keep Mr. Smith over there from incarcerating me.
http://i.imgur.com/0Jvijei.png
Kahi: I plead silence regarding the murder. But I will say I never touched the murder weapon.

Hooray. Case closed! No evidence!
(Actually check the poker results of they aren’t covered in blood)
http://i.imgur.com/fsBcfmA.png
Apophyx: Don’t be too sure. Remember to check the court record and compare the facts to Kahi’s statement.
if Kahi said he did not touch the Murder Weapon
then why are his fingerprints on it?
