Chapter 72: Obsidian Order Case

Rain woke up early and headed to the Meta City Prosecutor's Office, expecting the usual pile of pending cases on her desk. As she sifted through the files, one in particular caught her attention. She was in charge of the Organized Crime Unit, so she couldn't understand why a shoplifting case had ended up on her desk.

She picked up the file and showed it to Marlon, who was busy arranging more documents on her desk. "Isn't this case supposed to be with the Violent Crimes Unit?" Rain asked, frowning.

Marlon scratched his head, looking a bit sheepish. "Prosecutor Karl Brown took the Obsidian Order case and swapped it with that one."

Rain's expression darkened. "Without asking me first?"

"Yeah, he tends to do that with newcomers. He'll take on the more complicated cases and leave the simpler ones," Marlon explained.
