As well- I think the last person who fussed over my grammar was Ingram. Yes... Um... I've already explained this to the police, but I'm an alethiometrist- I can use an alethiometer to find stuff out- it's a... truth measure, a symbol reader. It's useful, even if the city messes with it sometimes. And I'm apparently a witch, as well. Although I doubt that'll be relevant most of the time.
Neuro's a long story... Mr. Edgeworth, before I say anything about him, have you met him? What's your impression of him?
He seemed harmless for the most part, I've only had one conversation with him. Though I must say, his attitude stood out as someone far too airy for being involved in this place.
As for this... alethiometer... what is its rate of success? You have to understand that without evidence, even the truth can be distorted.
Well... He's not what he seems to be. He doesn't want me to say, so I'll just show you this entry. He's not that bad normally though, but... I'd suggest keeping this a secret, all right?
He's a very good detective though. Honestly, I learn more from him than he does from me. And he's also really good at analyzing physical evidence.
Fairly high. It either gets something right, or it gets it a little vague, or I just can't make sense of it at all. But... I used it to track down one of the rat nest dispensers, and I got it right on the first try. Most of the time in the city, I've been using it to locate things, and people, though it can do other things, as well.
...From the experience and knowledge of the people in this City, I would not doubt it. But after seeing that, I am skeptical that he will not do anything without it being for personal benefit.
Your device however, seems to be... how may I say this. Convenient. While it could be helpful, unless others are aware of its importance, I doubt that it will be able to assist us all too much, except where we get stumped.
And usually that causes for even such things of convenience to leave us to our own devices.
Mr. Edgeworth, the easiest way to manipulate him is through his stomach. He likes solving mysteries and eating them. Bribing him with food works wonders.
Convenient is one word for it. The police force knows about it though, actually. Riou asks me to read it sometimes.
And quite a few people have at least some idea... Because back in January, I was using it to help them predict what the aliens would do next... Everyone said I was really useful to- But it can only predict what someone's planning to do. Any other kind of prediction would be really short term, because the future's always changing... the most it can do is tell you consequences.
And I ought to explain a few things, to.

I thought this Neuro of yours was just an assistant.
