The Devil's Advocate

The Devil's Advocate is a case featured in Criminal Case, appearing as the fourth case of the game as well as the city of Ivoryfall. It is also the fourth case to take place in Applewood Heights, a district based in Ivoryfall.

Plot
Previously on Criminal Case, the Ivoryfall Police Department was nearly killed by a "ghost" called The Dragon via poisonous nerve gas concealed in a gift box. Brock and the player went back to the station, only to hear from Kenny that Lucy Lee, a Chinese martial artist who went savage and put Biyu in the hospital, suddenly vanished. Not only that but Dr. Zhao called Brock and informed him of Cody and Biyu's sudden disappearances. The team were on their way to the hospital when they hear a particularly unusual noise coming from behind them. Still suffering from pain, Brock slammed the brakes on the patrol car.

Brock opened the trunk to find an elderly retired woman named Viola Chesterfield dead with hundreds of thumb tacks jammed into her body. Kenny confirmed that blood-loss was the cause of death and that the killer chose to gamble the victim's life. Due to Cody and Biyu being absent, Kenny and Sam are forced to take over their roles in analyzing.
