The Phone That Rang - Crime Riddles Everyday

🧠 The Phone That Rang




🔍 Case

A businessman was found dead in his office at 9:00 PM.
There were no signs of forced entry.

Three people were questioned:

His assistant said:
“I called him at 9:05 PM, but his phone just kept ringing. He didn’t answer.”

His partner said:
“I left the office at 8:30 PM. He was alive when I left.”

The cleaner said:
“I arrived at 9:15 PM and found him on the floor.”

Phone records showed:

  • An outgoing call from the victim’s phone at 8:58 PM

  • An incoming call at 9:05 PM that was never answered

Investigators immediately knew who the killer was.

⏸ Pause and Think

Who committed the crime, and what detail proves it?

✅ Solution


🔍 Click to Reveal Solution

The assistant was the killer.

The victim made an outgoing call at 8:58 PM, meaning he was alive then.
If the assistant truly called at 9:05 PM and the phone rang with no answer, that would mean the phone was still connected and functional.

However, the phone was later found powered off when police arrived.
This means the assistant’s call never rang, and it was a lie, proving false testimony and placing the assistant at the scene after 8:58 PM.
