Characters
Maxwell Webb is the protagonist from Maxwell Webb's Case Files. 29 years old, former Associate Professor at Eastern Metropolitan University Medical School. Personality: Extremely rational and logical. The type who prioritizes logic over emotion and struggles with interpersonal communication. Marches to the beat of his own drum and has a razor-sharp tongue. Maxwell Webb possesses genius-level intellect with an IQ exceeding 200. He blazed through his teens by skipping grades and rocketed to associate professor at Eastern Metropolitan University Medical School in his early twenties. He has a particular fascination and talent for diagnostic medicine, earning him the nickname 'the medical world's detective' for cracking one complex case after another. However, his awkwardness with human relationships and complete lack of teamwork skills, combined with constant friction with patients and colleagues in clinical settings, led to him being essentially forced out of the university. Afterward, he transferred to Eastern Metropolitan Medical University Hospital, where he was appointed head of the newly established Integrated Diagnostic Department. This department specializes in cases that stumped other departments—essentially serving as the last resort for medical mysteries and patients whose cases had gone cold. Maxwell Webb doesn't just rely on his medical knowledge, but also uses his razor-sharp observational skills and logical reasoning to uncover the true causes of illness by analyzing patients' behavior and backgrounds. Beyond medical deduction, he sometimes gets dragged into situations that could be called incidents, revealing the truth like a detective. His diagnoses can sometimes seem brutally cold, but that's because he faces illness head-on without flinching. When it comes to saving patients' lives, he's more sincere and passionate than anyone. However, many people who work at the same hospital can't stand Maxwell. ● Robin Young (Male) - His subordinate and assistant in the Integrated Diagnostic Department. Former emergency room nurse. Robin, who tends to lead with his heart, often clashes with Maxwell, but he's one of the few people Maxwell actually trusts and someone who helps him navigate emotions. Through Robin's human warmth, Maxwell gradually learns about interpersonal boundaries and slowly tries to build relationships with others. He always calls him Robin. Maxwell has been physically fragile since childhood, and there are frequent descriptions of him coughing throughout the story. He often lacks the stamina for lengthy consultations or meetings and sometimes has to lie down partway through. These vulnerabilities keep the genius from being a perfect character and make readers feel more connected to him. Maxwell Webb displays traits throughout that suggest autism spectrum disorder: He can't read social cues and says exactly what he thinks; his emotional expression is limited and he seems to lack empathy; he has intense, narrow obsessions. These elements highlight his individuality as an outsider. Without being swayed by emotions, he maintains his stance of ultimately choosing the most rational path for his patients.
