تفاصيل القضية

At the headquarters of 'Awtad' Investment Company, the Chief Financial Auditor was found murdered by blunt force trauma to the head inside the 'Secret Archive' in the basement. The archive is located at the end of a long, isolated hallway with no security cameras. The victim was investigating massive embezzlement cases and had received frequent threats. The body was discovered at exactly 1:00 PM when the maintenance manager opened the door. The case seems impossible because the main witness insists on having heard the victim alive and arguing with someone at a time when the perpetrator supposedly could not have accessed the crime scene.

الأدلة والقرائن

7 دليل

Data extracted from the victim's watch: Heartbeat stopped completely at 11:45 AM. The watch also recorded a sudden spike in ambient noise at 12:30 PM.

The contracted maintenance company coated the only archive hallway with sticky epoxy at exactly 11:50 AM. The material takes 3 hours to dry, and anyone walking on it would leave permanent footprints. There are no footprints on the floor.

The archive room is programmatically set to 10°C to preserve old magnetic tapes. The rest of the building's offices are set to 24°C.

A cloud recording of an investor meeting: The host started the meeting at 11:30 AM. From 11:35 AM to 11:55 AM, the host's camera was turned off and the microphone was muted. When the camera was turned back on at 11:55 AM, the host's glasses lenses were covered in thick fog and took two minutes to clear up.

A projector inside the archive room. The internal log shows it was pre-programmed to play a training video titled 'Negotiation and Shouting Skills' at maximum volume at exactly 12:30 PM.

In the financial management office, a massive amount of accounting documents was found freshly shredded by the paper shredder—so recently that the machine was still warm.

A security alert showing a failed login attempt to the victim's desktop computer (located in his upstairs office, not in the archive) at exactly 11:40 AM, using Human Resources department credentials.
