The Screaming Woman
At night, a woman's scream came from Dr. Bab's residence. Later, it was discovered that Dr. Bab had been beaten unconscious and died in the hospital. The police found the names of Cobb and Logan in Dr. Bab's appointment register, with Cobb being a client of Mason. Mason became involved in this murder case unknowingly, and his client's lies put him in a dangerous situation. He had to fight on both fronts—representing his client and protecting himself.
The Temperamental Girl
Twenty-three-year-old Celane was temperamental and very arrogant. Although her father left her a million-dollar inheritance, he entrusted it to her uncle for management, with the condition that if she didn't marry before her twenty-fifth birthday, the inheritance would be donated to a charity. Celane sought Mason's help to reclaim the fund. After investigation, Mason discovered that Celane had secretly married, making the situation more complicated. Mason contacted Celane's uncle, but the meeting ended unhappily. Subsequently, Celane's uncle was found dead at home, his skull broken. Due to his death, Celane was able to successfully reclaim the entire inheritance, making her a prime suspect in the murder case.
