Lang Zi says, "The toothless wolf eats only sweetbreads." Looks like I've got no choice, here.

I'm in need of an assistant. I've got advertisements running in a couple of papers in the city so I expect a pretty big turnout, but some of my men think I should post a notice here, too, because fewer people read the papers any more.

Can guys apply?

[alphashifu]

Yeah, no reason why not.

Not you, though.

Good luck finding a suitable assistant, Agent Lang!

I myself must wait for the government to appoint one. It must be nice to be able to hire directly from the populace! I'm sure you'll get many excellent applicants.

[alphashifu]

I like being able to choose my assistant, yeah. Do you at least nominate candidates for yourself?

[dearestdiplomat]

You'll be working so closely together, and in such dangerous situations, I can understand why you'd need to hand-select an assistant.

As for me, I do have some influence, and I can veto a decision.

Considering the current political situation, I think the government is going to select someone from the province formerly known as the Kingdom of Allebahst. Things are still settling down back home.

I do like to be personally involved in local hiring, but my staff prefers that I delegate, and I try not to give them too much trouble!

[alphashifu]

Being politic is a pressure I don't think I could handle.

Don't I still owe you a beer?

Hey, one out of six ain't too bad!

[alphashifu]

I have known dogs that could fulfil three. Sometimes four.

[duck_gimshoe]

Wow, you know dogs that can type, pal?

Maybe I could teach Missile, too!

I know all too well the difficulty of finding a trustworthy colleague nowadays.

Anyway, I hope you find a perfect match soon, Mr. Lang.

[alphashifu]

It seems to be going around a bit, yeah. You, me, Edgeworth, pretty much everyone he's talked to for the past month... it's like a virus in this country, and everyone's catching it.

I don't suppose you'd be interested?

Working for Interpol does sound very exciting...but I'm afraid I type only 55 WPM, so I'm not quite qualified.

[magpie_byrdey]

Well, I do have recent experience with what I guess you could considered synchronized dancing! Or maybe it's just group acting... And not exactly synchronized at all...

Good luck with your search, sir!

[alphashifu]

If you're looking for a job, the position's open to you too, Ms. ...?

[magpie_byrdey]

Maggey Byrde, sir!

I've only just started my new job, but it sounds like a very exciting offer regardless!
