~The Bloody Character in the Locked Room~
Today was once again a fierce courtroom battle for Phoenix Wright. But when he got back to his office, it was none other than Detective Gumshoe waiting for him.
Gumshoe: Hey! Today you're going to pay your dues, pal!
Phoenix: Detective Gumshoe, what's wrong? If you've run out of ramen, I'm not going to treat you...
Gumshoe: I have plenty of ramen, pal! Just look at this.
Phoenix: ...Is this a ナ?
(ナ is a Japanese character pronounced "na")
Gumshoe: It's a ナ, pal. This is the important dying message that the victim left in a locked room murder mystery that took place in a nearby mansion.
Here is a summary of the incident, according to Detective Gumshoe:
- The victim is 27-year old Natsumi Sakuraba (桜庭奈津美) who lived in the mansion.
- She was a teacher. She taught Japanese at a nearby middle school.
- She was stabbed in the back with a knife in the center of one of the rooms of her house.
- There were no windows in the room. The only entrance or exit was a door, which was locked from the inside with a key.
- Natsumi's relatives thought it was strange that they didn't hear from her, so they alerted the police. The police broke down the door to the room, and found that nobody else was inside.
Gumshoe: The only person whose name begins with "na" around here... is you, pal! You're the one who did it, aren't ya, pal?!
(Nick's Japanese name is Naruhodou Ryuuichi)
Phoenix: H-Hold on a second. I didn't have any connection to the victim.
Gumshoe: B-But, out of all the people the victim knew and that lived near her, you're the only one with a name that begins with "na"...
Phoenix: (And you're trying to arrest me based on that alone?!) By the way, when exactly did the victim die?
Gumshoe: According to forensics, it was about 6PM yesterday, pal.
Phoenix: I was in the middle of a trial at that time!
Gumshoe: Eh? B-But then what does this dying "na" message mean, pal?!
Phoenix: I don't know. Maybe she ran out of strength before finishing writing it? You said that she was found in a locked room... Maybe the victim was stabbed by the criminal, escaped to that room, and then locked it from the inside? Isn't it possible that she finally died after all that?
Gumshoe: Urp... I never thought of that, pal...
Phoenix: (As fit a detective as always...)
As if he hadn't thought of that case until now, Detective Gumshoe fell silent.
After an in-depth investigation it was discovered that, just as Phoenix predicted, the room was locked by the victim herself. Furthermore, it was understood that the motive was a grudge, and the suspects are the 4 people below that hated the victim:
- Sujio Ooshima (大島筋雄): Gym teacher. He held one-sided love for the victim, but was hated by her in return.
- Atsutoshi Tomota (友田厚敏): Math teacher. The victim would point out his mistakes on a daily basis, and so he grew to hate her.
- Shizuko Sayama (左山静子): Music teacher. In the past, the victim stole her boyfriend.
- Hirosuke Arikawa (有川博資): Physics teacher. He owed the victim a large amount of money.
There is no doubt that the killer is one of these four.
Phoenix thought about the dying message, and... "Ah, I got it."
Who is the killer? And what did the dying message refer to? (The victim's name, the killer's name, her lover's contact address, or the truth of the loan.)
(If you're at a loss... this might be a helpful tool.)
Spoiler: Another hint
Now then... Select your answer!
Spoiler: Sujio Ooshiima, victim's name
Spoiler: Sujio Ooshiima, killer's name
Spoiler: Sujio Ooshiima, lover's address
Spoiler: Sujio Ooshiima, loan's truth

Here is another, old mystery quiz (unrelated to GS5), translated by Ash:
Quote:
Episode 8
~A Battle of Offense and Defense at the Witness Stand~
Right now, I am standing in the witness stand. To ensure that that man I hate so much is found guilty of murder.
"The witness claims to have seen the murderer in the victim's room on the day of the crime?"
I answer yes to the judge's question and continue.
"It was snowing that day, and the night was very cold. I just happened to look at the apartment room across my room and saw the victim preparing a hot pot dish, when suddenly a man entered her room. I had seen him in the victim's room before, because I occasionally look out of my room like this. So I knew he was her boyfriend, the defendant who is standing here in front of my eyes!"
"Hold it!"
The defendant's attorney said in a fluster.
"There is a road about 20 meters wide between your apartment and the victim's one. How could you have seen the victim's room?"
He's just nitpicking. I answer.
"She had not drawn the curtains in her room. At night, if you don't draw the curtains and switch on the lights inside, you can see everything from outside. And by the way, the eyesight of both my eyes is 1.5."
Kkkkkk. I could hear the lawyer's teeth grinding.
"Continue your testimony," the judge said.
"I had nothing better to do, so I just watched them. At first, they were getting along fine, picking food from the hot pot, but then they started to argue. The argument became fiercer and then the man got a knife from the kitchen, stabbed the victim and fled."
"Hold it!"
The persistent lawyer spoke again.
"So it was a crime on the spur of the moment. But there were no fingerprints found on the murder weapon."
"He had wiped away the fingerprints. I just forgot to tell you. The murderer wiped away the fingerprints and then fled."
"And you were just looking. You didn't call for the police."
"It just took a couple of seconds to wipe away the fingerprints. I called the police immediately after he fled of course."
"No, he didn't flee right away. When the body was discovered, the kerosene heater in the victim's room was on. Didn't the murderer try warm up the body to mess up the estimated time of the murder?"
I was surprised at this sharp question of the laywer, but answered.
"I already said it was cold that day. The heater was on from the beginning"
Then the lawyer yelled elated:
"Objection! There is a contradiction in your testimony!"
What's your deduction?
The police saw through the man's lie, but based on what?
Pick your answer:

Oh, for those not familiar with Japanese scripts and as they often appear in detective fiction, I once wrote a minor monograph on the topic[/Holmes]

There are a couple of more on the mobile website and while a lot of them focus on Japanese scripts, some of them would lend themselves better for localisation (but actually, all the other quizzes besides the one here don't actually feature AA characters, instead featuring nameless protagonists and such).
On the Capcom site? :o

If people are really interested, I might translate some too, though I have to say again that they are just mystery quizes with no real relation to the series (the older ones don't even feature the AA characters).

A quick translation of a story that doesn't need knowledge of Japanese. (The font-color of the lines spoken by the lawyer is blue by the way, sorta suggesting that this is Phoenix. But not really)

Yikes. This wouldn't lend itself to localisation very nicely...:p
Dont underestimate the team that quickly, they take special care with localization that they brilliantly find an alternative.
For example, we can have an obscurely written M, which can later turn out that the victim was upside down when writing a W or on the side when writing an E, writing in Blood while in pain never lets you write perfectly after all.
