Turnabout in the Lighthouse of Lunacy [FT] Part 9: A Surprise Guest?

[A Visual Novelty First-Time Playthrough]
We resume the trial after an unfortunate descent to the bottom floor, and, well- This is certainly going a direction.
The trial seems to care little for the surprise SECOND MURDER here - worse yet, it only is weighing against us in this murder! And then, stranger enough, we get an... unexpected witness?
-----------------------------------------
Turnabout in the Lighthouse of Lunacy, by Blackrune!
Behold the unassailable facts of the case.
Aurelia Chase, a journalist, was caught snooping around in a place she wasn't supposed to be.
The resulting confrontation took an ugly turn.
Once witnesses arrived, they found her inside a locked room. Alongside a dead body.
Now, she stands accused of murder, and has to defend herself.
Will she be able to discover the truth?
Well... That won't be necessary. It would be counterproductive, in fact.
The truth of the matter has been clear from the start.
Because no matter what excuses Aurelia might make, she is guilty.

Mariko is so good, I love her effect on the case

"You use an umbrella indoors" - I'm *still* cracking up at that!

[@pourtoujours1808]

I absolutely love how Mariko called out Victoria on the parasol. With the way Victoria treated the recently deceased, she had at least that much coming. It's great that we've gotten such a big breakthrough in the case. I might be overthinking it, but I did find it strange that the victim closed the door. If someone enters an occupied room with a weapon in hand and closes the door behind them, that suggests to me an intent to do harm. That wasn't the angle Aurelia took, but I'm glad we're casting suspicion on the victim now. Maybe we can figure out what her daughter is up to next.

I love these obscure damn games

Side note: I love aurelia's surprised court sprite, makes her look like she witnessed some horrible obscenity in court

[@aviana4475]

Well, that was certaintly something.
I'm still not convinced about Mariko's being an adult.
Despite Susan being sketchy and probably taking the cleaning bottle, I don't think she is actually behind any of the murder.
The mastermind is clearly pulling something super elaborate.
Or the lighthouse is sentient and the actual culprit ! 👻

So did Hellinger use her Nintendo Switch to scan Lillian's hands for gunpowder residue? I mean, if it can check how many people tutched something and in what order than it can surely check if someone firred a gun or not? I fact, why haven't Aurelia's hands been tested for gunpowder residue using that device? I mean, she's the main suspect and not only would it be prudent to scan her but to also scan everyone else in the building as the plaintiff wont then have to worry about the defendent acusing someone else of being the killer if that person happens to not have an alibi.

The prosecution in this case is honestly starting to piss me off. It's like she's just there for the sake of having an asshole character, and she probably doesn't even care for what happens unless Aurelia somehow gets in trouble.
