I didn't expect anyone to
visit me in such a dank
place like This.
It's quite moving, don't you think?"

"NOT! YOU STINKING LITTLE BRAT LAWYER! I HOPE YOU DIE!
Have you come to laugh?
Yes, laugh at the fallen Miss Rodri-"
-Snaps her fingers-
"That's enough Lilia.
We only came here to ask
you some questions."
Lilia: "Unfortunately, There is
nothing I want to BE asked.
Haven't you done enough
questioning, You...! Idiot-head!"
Phoenix: (Here we go again...)
"Please Miss Rodriguez, you're scaring
the security guard."
Lilia: "So? What is it you wish
to ask of me, then? Hmm?"
"Well, Lilia. We're here to ask you about Redd White."
Lilia: -Looks in shock-
"...! How did you...?"
"It very simple, is Redd White staying with you in your hotel room?
Can you tell me about him?"
Lilia: "No way. I can't tell that...it's private thing!"
"Okay, Next question.
Why did you place a wiretap on Emily's phone?"
Lilia: "When you say it like that it sounds so...cold and so criminal!"
"If you don't explain about why you wiretap my sister's phone"
-Takes out her whip-
"I will have to make talk with my whip!"
Phoenix: "Wow! Where did you get that!?"
"I got it by a friend of mine from a long time ago, I always use this thing to make people like her talk about the crime scene and the killer info. Oh! And tapping people's phones is a crime, Miss Rodriguez."
Lilia: "Oh, and I suppose you learned
that in Lawyer School, Hmm?"
"Okay, you're are so done!"
-Hits her whip into the desk-
"Tell us, now! Or I will use this on you!"
Phoenix: "Ari, Calm down..."
-Looks at Lilia-
"Miss Rodriguez, why are you so...angry?
I mean, you don't look like a bad person..."
Lilia: "Ooh, that does it!
Bottom-feeding, scum-sucking law- AH!"
-Slams her whip into the desk-
"Don't make me use this, darling~!
Wait...bottom? What's that suppose to mean?"
Phoenix: "(I can't tell, does she have a thing against lawyers... Or just against me and Ari?)"
"Well, Lilia.
Are you going to tell about Redd White or
i just go talk to him all by myself?"
Lilia: "Okay! I will tell you everything!"
"Very Well, you May begin."
Lilia: "Wait! before I begin telling
you this. Guess what?
I really hate your guts, So get lost.
Because I'm not cooperating."
"Okay, that's it!"
-Hits her whip hardly into the desk-
"YOU WILL START TALKING BEFORE
I USE THIS THING ON YOU!"
Guard: "Ms. Alcaraz, Your time with
the visitor is over. You may leave now."
-Grumble-
"Okay...i will be back."
Phoenix and I walked out of the Visitor's room and went back to the hallway.
