Ace Attorney Investigations 2: Prosecutor's Gambit/Episode 2: The Captive Turnabout

From Wikibooks, open books for an open world

Inside a damp, dark prison, a single bell rings. A shadow walks past the cells, and at the end of the hallway, a light flashes briefly. A pool of blood forms on the floor... The victim is Horace Knightley, the culprit from the previous case. The shadow from earlier looms over the body, before walking away again. The bell rings again, and light is finally brought to the dark corridor, revealing a large black dog, with blood dripping from its mouth... Is this hound the killer?
