The renowned mathematician Ichiro Kitagawa invited three esteemed scholars from the mathematics community to his private dinner. They were Onoda, an expert in algebraic geometry, and Erika Sato, who had made significant contributions to number theory.
The atmosphere at the dinner was lively and warm, with the three intellectuals passionately discussing the beauty of mathematics, sometimes debating fiercely and other times sharing knowing smiles. However, just as the dinner was about to conclude, a sudden shriek pierced the tranquil night. The guests hurried to the source of the sound, only to find Ichiro Kitagawa lying in a pool of blood, surrounded by scattered sheets filled with complex mathematical formulas. The villa's front door had been locked from the inside.
The police quickly arrived at the scene and began their investigation. Preliminary examinations revealed that Ichiro Kitagawa had died from a severe head injury inflicted by a blunt object, and no suspicious individuals were found at the scene. Even more perplexing was the discovery of two additional bodies hidden within the villa: one in the study and another in the basement. Both victims were prominent figures; one was Onoda, who had completed significant mathematical research under Ichiro Kitagawa's guidance, and the other was Erika Sato, Ichiro Kitagawa's young and beautiful personal assistant.
Three bodies, three different causes of death, yet all seemed intricately connected to mathematics. The police found mathematical formulas and notes at the scene, adding layers of mystery to the case. Rumors about this mathematical murder mystery spread rapidly throughout Tokyo City, with people speculating that it was a meticulously planned murder shrouded in complex motives and unfathomable conspiracies.
As one of the invited guests, Silence could not remain detached from the situation. With her keen insight and strong deductive skills, she quickly immersed herself in the investigation. She first noticed the mathematical formulas scattered around Ichiro Kitagawa; they appeared chaotic but concealed deeper meanings. Silence began attempting to decipher these formulas, hoping to uncover clues that would lead to solving the case.
As her investigation progressed, Silence discovered a web of complex emotional entanglements and conflicts of interest among Ichiro Kitagawa, Onoda, and Erika Sato. Ichiro Kitagawa's obsession with mathematics bordered on madness; he pursued perfection in academia while attempting to apply mathematical principles to every aspect of real life. Onoda and Erika Sato, as his closest associates, gradually lost themselves in this extreme pursuit.
After considerable effort, Silence finally unveiled the truth behind the three bodies. It turned out that Ichiro Kitagawa had fallen into a pathological obsession in his later years; he believed he had discovered a mathematical formula capable of predicting and controlling human destiny. To validate this theory, he conducted a series of secret experiments with Onoda and Erika Sato as his subjects.
However, the results of these experiments far exceeded Ichiro Kitagawa's expectations. Onoda suffered a mental breakdown during the trials and ultimately chose to take his own life; Erika Sato attempted to stop Ichiro Kitagawa's madness upon learning the truth but tragically fell victim to foul play. As for Ichiro Kitagawa himself, upon realizing his mistakes and sins, he chose to end his own life.
Though the case was solved, it left lingering thoughts for those involved. Mathematics, once considered a realm of pure reason, had become a breeding ground for twisted humanity and evil deeds. Standing before the ruins of the villa and gazing up at the starry night sky, Silence felt a complex mix of emotions within her. She understood that regardless of technological advancements, both good and evil would always exist within human nature. As a master detective novelist, she would continue to use her pen to expose truths hidden in darkness and give voice to justice.
Even though it seemed that the mystery surrounding the three bodies had been settled, a lingering doubt remained in Silence's mind. Were those scattered mathematical formulas merely products of Ichiro Kitagawa's pathological fantasies? Or did they conceal deeper secrets waiting for someone determined enough to uncover them?
