On the opening night of a grand tragic play, the cruel director 'Jalal' was found murdered with a fatal blow to the head inside his dark, private box on the upper floor of the theater. The body was discovered at exactly 10:00 PM.
The crime undoubtedly occurred during the 'Second Act', which ran from 9:00 to 9:45 PM. Tonight's play relies heavily on special effects. At exactly 9:30 PM, the script features a pivotal dramatic climax: complete silence for 30 seconds, followed by a massive explosion effect that shakes the entire theater.
The director's box directly overlooks the stage but is isolated from the backstage area. The police have gathered the five suspects who had freedom of movement or were temporarily absent during this critical act. Everyone hated Jalal, and everyone seems confident in their alibi.
