A Taurusaurus plushie owned by President Di-Jun Wang of Zheng Fa. It doubles as an audio recording device that can record up to two sound clips. Each sound clip is associated with one of the two horns, and can be played back by attaching the corresponding horn to the doll and twisting it.
Origins[]
In 2007, Amelie Fenn had a son, Shaun, secretly fathered by President Wang. Amelie Fenn sent the doll to the president with a recorded message letting him know that the boy had been born, and to meet her at the Happy Family Home orphanage, where she worked, at midnight on February 10. At the appointed hour, Wang had a body double cover for him had set off to the orphanage. However, instead of Fenn, Wang encountered the blind assassin Bodhidharma Kanis, whom the body double had secretly hired to assassinate the president. The first strike detached the horn with Fenn's message, and the second fatally wounded Wang.
A boy named Simeon Saint witnessed this murder, but it was covered up and made to look like a kidnapping. The body double was brought back in exchange for ransom money from the government of Zheng Fa, and so the body double successfully replaced the president. Saint retrieved the horn and drew a picture of what had really happened, which he showed to detective Da-Long Lang. However, he was subsequently interrogated repeatedly by the orphanage director, Fifi Laguarde. Unable to handle the abuse, Saint ran from the orphanage, leaving the horn behind.

The rest of the doll remained in the body double's possession until March 2019, when it was retrieved by police as evidence for the murder of Bastian Rook. However, it was transferred to a hidden storage room in the Bigg Building, where is was among other pieces of evidence that were being illegally auctioned off. On April 4, 2019, Rosie Ringer infiltrated the black market auction and used the now one-horned doll to record her confrontation with the auction conductor, whom she recognized as Excelsius Winner from a burn mark on his chin. Winner had anticipated this and fatally wounded Ringer before she could kill him. He left her inside a costume trunk and resumed the auction, but she managed to live long enough to climb up a floor to the top of the Bigg Building with the doll, where she succumbed to her wound. The recording was instrumental in exposing Winner as the auction conductor the following day.
After Winner's arrest, Miles Edgeworth used Little Thief to re-investigate the president's "kidnapping" and find the truth behind it. In the process, Saint' belongings from the orphanage were retrieved, and among them was the missing horn. Shaun, now 13 years old, learned that President Wang was his father, who had in reality been killed 12 years ago. He sought revenge against Kanis, but decided against it after realizing that doing so would only satisfy him at the expense of others who cared about him.
