Bizarre Prison Murder
In an airtight room, which was a prison, there was only a small iron-barred window that even a child couldn't crawl through. There was a guard at the door, and it was hard even for a fly to get in. The rusty iron door was locked tightly from the inside, holding a prisoner who had been locked up for two years. But strangely, on the day the court summons arrived, he mysteriously died. His head was severed, the iron door was locked, and the key was only with the officer. There were no tools for committing a crime in the room, just blood stains on the small window and the door lock bolt. Where did the head go? How did the murderer kill him?

The officer killed him, stuck the criminal's head out of the window, and cut it off with a key, so there was blood on the window. Later, the officer used the key to open the door, so there was also blood on the latch!
