...

- (Ah, ah, ah, ah.)

- Don't touch the files.

Don't touch! Do not touch!

You've damaged it.

It's torn.

Ah, ah, ah, ah.

No touching.

I was explicit with Mrs. Beaufoy.

This audit does not require any deviation from protocol

handling of classified funds.

I'm the only person here authorized to handle the files.

I'm authorized.

Don't touch the files. You've damaged a box.

- Don't get upset.

- You damaged a box, all the same.

- Perdon.

- And the results?

- So, for the electromyogram, it's quick.

And the MRI has already gone to the neurologist.

No more than a few days.

It's a bit a bit unusual.

Let's go.

- Yes, we're coming!

Astrid.

- Hello Raphaëlle. I need to talk to you about Archimedes' palimpsest.

- At 5:30 in the morning?

- At 5:31 a.m., yes. Criminal documentation is impractical,

and that's what made me decide. - Okay, excuse me.

What's the connection between criminal documentation

and your thing? - Archimedes' palimpsest.

None. This 13th-century work would have nothing to do

criminal documentation. No, it's at Loculus-95.

- Okay, Loculus.

- Dash 95. You know what? I'm going to make myself a cup of coffee

and we'll get everything in order.

- Here's the coffee. - Here we go.

- In the Middle Ages,

parchment, a scarce resource, was reused several times.

A book whose text has been replaced is called a palimpsest.

You're asleep. - No.

- Yes, you are.

- So, Archimedes' palimpsest

is a text by Archimedes hidden under a text...

- From a medieval prayer book. Thanks to modern techniques,

a text from the 9th century archimedes from the 3rd century BC,

was rediscovered beneath the 13th century religious text.

- And...

This text interests you because... - Because it contains

the written trace... of the 1st puzzle known to mankind.

- Ah. - The Loculus.

- Yes. - It's a kind of tangram

from Antiquity. We've already talked about it.

- Really? - Yes.

During an entire Monday dinner. In October.

2019.

- Yes, I remember.

- Here it is. In 2013,

this work was sold to an anonymous buyer

for $2.2 million.

- Oh, wow. - Yes.

I've learned that this anonymous buyer

is none other than Loculus-95,

with whom I exchange on Puzzle Buddies.

2 days ago, Loculus-95 said to me Edgar Denis Lesneaux.

He invited me to consult

archimedes' palimpsest.

- No, you don't! - Ah yes.

- Yes, it is. But I'm not letting you go alone, I'll go with you.

- Our train leaves in 43 minutes. - 43 minutes.

- Loculus-95 property

is located in Eure-et-Loir. To make the round trip

during the day, you have to take the 6:20 train,

in 43mn. - I'm not

ready.

- This is why i got here early.

- We can go go next weekend,

there's a holiday afterwards. - Loculus-95

sent me his mail 2 days ago,

but it was too upsetting my habits.

Only, my habits are already upset

by the audit to criminal documentation.

Loculus-95 wrote me that he was leaving

tomorrow for a long trip. We have to leave now.

- All right, then. Go for departure in 43 minutes.

- 41. - Yes, no, don't stress me.

I'm not washed. - Wash yourself.

- Or combed. - Do your hair.

- No make-up. - You'll do it on the train.

- What about breakfast? - There's a bakery downstairs

- Wow, what a lovely place!

He's got the means,

your Loculus 95. - Dash 95.

I remind you that he bought a book

for 2.2 million. - And his name?

- Loculus-95. - His real name?

- Ah. Edgar Denis Lesneaux.

There are cars.

Loculus-95 didn't mention the presence of other guests.

Only his housekeeper who lives there.

I hadn't anticipated so much social interaction.

- Maybe they're all his, these cars.

What are they doing? Does it open or what?

- You have to push.

Heavy. - It could be automatic.

- Hmmm.

Raphaëlle! Hmmm. - Yes?

- You have to go around, not walk on the lawn.

- Hello. - Hello.

- Have you come for the wake?

- No. We're here to see Edgar Denis Lesneaux.

- So, it's good for the wake.

I'm Edgar's son. My father is dead.

My father is in his room. I'll take you there.

- First, let's consult Archimedes of Archimedes. That's why we're here.

- No, it would be better,

to pay our last respects a final tribute to our host.

- Hmmm. This changes nothing

for him, he's dead.

- Yes, it can change a lot of things.

Let's have a look...

- The palimpsest. - This way.

- The palimpsest? - First to see her father.

- And then the palimpsest? - First her father.

- Eh...

- (Yes, just a moment.)

- Dad had a heart condition for years.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

It could happen at any time.

- The body has been moved.

- Uh... Yes.

By the funeral services.

Dad didn't die in his bed, but...

in the library.

It was Blanche, the housekeeper, who found it.

- He presents

a subcutaneous contusion here. There's a hematoma.

- He must have done it when he fell

when he collapsed. - Absolutely not.

The appearance of the tissues indicates ante mortem hematoma.

- What the...

- Oh !

- Astrid.

- What does she do?

- You did say

- Yes

- Ah!

Bathroom?

- This way.

- What does it mean?

- Wait a moment.

What are you doing? - Toothpaste

has been mixed with a substance foreign to its composition.

- A lethal substance?

- No, except for a person suffering from cardiomyopathy.

The death of E.D. Lesneaux could be

of criminal origin.

- Please stop

your eccentricities.

Show some decency, we are in mourning.

The doctor and the gendarmes have confirmed the death

without formulating this kind of far-fetched hypothesis.

- I agree.

- Holy cow! What is it, Astrid?

- It could be essence of curcumin,

a fluorescent substance.

I identified its scent in the corpse's mouth in the corpse's mouth

For someone

suffering from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy hypertrophic cardiomyopathy,

this substance is fatal.

Raphaëlle, a cluster of clues indicates

that the toothpaste was poisoned, and thus E.D. Lesneaux.

- Well...

I'd like to inform you

that from now on,

this room and the bathroom are a crime scene.

- What? - Like the library.

I'm going to have to ask you to leave immediately

and to remain of course at our disposal.

We'll meet you downstairs. - What are you talking about?

Fitzgerald!

- Astrid thinks he's been poisoned.

It's crazy, I know.

Can you call the Chartres prosecutor?

He'll contact the research section of the Orléans gendarmerie.

Good.

OK, cool.

Time for everyone to arrive,

Astrid and I, we run the store.

Thanks, Nico.

Love you. Hang up the phone.

You go ahead.

No, you do it.

- Raphaëlle. - He hung up.

Yes.

- We have a problem.

Loculus-95 sent me his invitation invitation two days ago.

- I've been thinking about it, Astrid.

While they all say he died 3 days ago.

- Here it is.

Edgar Denis Lesneaux was already dead when I received the e-mail.

- In plain English,

someone used his mailbox to get you here.

Someone who knows the truth and would like us to find out.

The palimpsest is a decoy.

- Raphaëlle, the palimpsest. - Ah yes, the palimpsest, Perdon.

- You said "after".

"After" is now. - Come on.

Excuse me.

This is it. Perfect!

Astrid.

Palimpsest.

Oh, excuse me...

Can we see the room where your father died? The library.

- I'll take you there. - Where the palimpsest is.

- Exactly. It's in the center of the room.

Are you sure your your friend isn't mistaken?

- She's rarely wrong. I can assure you of that.

- Losing your father, is violent enough.

Knowing that it could be murder, I wasn't ready.

This is so...

unthinkable, so crazy.

Do you get it?

- Absolutely not.

- It's that way.

- Astrid, I've never seen you seen you climb a staircase so fast

- Yes, that's because there's the palimpsest.

Where is the palimpsest? - There, in front of you, on the lectern.

- Mmm mmm. On the lectern, there's nothing.

- We don't know who sent you this e-mail.

In any case, this person brought you here

to demonstrate the murder.

And your book there, is one of the pieces of the puzzle.

A book worth several million book disappears,

that's quite a motive for murder.

Isn't it? Aren't you listening at all?

Until you find the palimpsest,

you won't be able to think anything else. Am I wrong?

- Raphaëlle,

there. - Oh!

What's this?

Aren't you going to take it?

- It's a piece of evidence and we're not in charge of the investigation.

- You have your gloves.

OK.

Well, it was bound to happen one day: i'm presbyopic for sure.

- You're presbyopic. - Yes.

So, what does this... What does it say?

"For there is nothing hidden that should not be discovered,

"and nothing is done in secret that should not appear in public."

22.

- You amaze me, Astrid. - Raphaëlle,

it's written.

There. - Ah yes.

It's a page from the Gospel.

- The theological works are stored there.

No Gospel. No gospel. Ah.

Gospel.

Hmmm.

Found it.

The page has been torn out from this Gospel.

- Meaning?

- I don't know.

This page is hidden

where the body of E.D. Lesneaux was found.

E.D. Lesneaux was also Loculus-95,

erudite and prolific contributor to the Puzzle Buddies forum.

Raphaëlle, this page is not a page.

This page is an enigma

that E.D. Lesneaux left me before he died.

- Interesting. - Yes.

- And I bet you that the culprit is in this house.

- Good afternoon, madam. Please monsieur Lesneaux

that his old friend, Corentin Maille, has come to visit him.

- It's that I'm sorry

to inform you that monsieur has passed away

- What?

When did it happen?

- Three days ago, sir.

- Monsieur Maille,

you're just in time!

We were about to meet in the living room.

You're welcome.

This way, please.

Right this way.

The investigators in charge will be here soon.

In the meantime, please don't leave the manor.

Could each of you please tell me the link

to Mr. Lesneaux?

Fitzgerald, you're his only son,

and you, Blanche, his housekeeper.

- Has the police interrogation has already begun?

- No, it hasn't.

I'm here because I'm accompanying my friend, Astrid Nielsen,

who has been invited by E. Lesneaux. - Edgar Denis Lesneaux.

- Here we are.

And if I've taken things in hand, it's...

If I've taken things into my own hands, it's like asking

if there's a doctor in the room. I'm the cop in the room.

- Corentin Maille, 67. I'm an old friend of Edgar's.

We met in the army, we go way back.

- Would you like... - I'd rather have a whisky.

- Sir?

- Olivier Levert, 45 years old.

I'm Edgar's financial partner.

He's had several lives.

He was a pilot diplomat.

He has written science fiction novels.

For 10 years, he had been working

in patent development with yours truly.

- Lila, Fitzgerald's mom.

Edgar and I have been separated for 15 years,

but we've remained very close.

- Robert Lazuli, 39. I'm sleeping with his wife.

- Oh Edga... I mean Bob!

- It's true, isn't it?

You've never been divorced.

So, I'm the guy who sleeps with his wife.

*- Yes, Raph, I'm listening. - Yes, Nico, how are you?

*- I'm fine.

- The commissioner didn't say anything about me?

- I said you had a family problem.

- Is Norah with you?

I'll put you on speaker.

*- I need info on one or one or 2 people. Are you writing this down?

- Yes, that's fine.

*- First, Fitzgerald Lesneaux,

the victim's son. Second, Lila Bouvier is his mother.

*Next, Olivier Levert, in his forties,

businessman and partner of the victim.

*There's Corentin Maille, in his sixties,

*retired jerk or something like that

Robert Lazuli, madame's gigolo.

*And finally, Blanche Justin,

early thirties. *- Raph...

You're not in charge of the investigation.

- But... I know, I'm not conducting investigation, I'm just curious.

*- Is that all? - Yes, that's all

- Kisses.

- Bye-bye.

Do they treat you well here?

- Yes.

It was a pleasure to work for Monsieur.

I was 18 when I started.

Zero qualifications.

He took me under his wing.

He was... like a father to me.

He was the type

most benevolent i've ever met.

- He was a pretentious prick. - Bob!

To get a sports coach, he must have had a single-digit IQ.

Well, I've got youth, physical fitness,

and his wife dumped him for me.

He was jealous.

A normal reaction. Get it? - Absolutely not.

- Nice. - Reports

with my father had become complicated.

- I know the feeling. - I wanted to pick up the pieces.

I thought we we were on the right track.

And there it is.

When I think about it, it makes me angry. I have to type.

- Bob's a little jealous,

but he's not a bad guy.

Can't say I blame him.

I've always kept great complicity with Edgar.

Do you understand? - Mmm mmm.

- Nothing happened

before death?

- Not really.

Monsieur has had few visitors.

Or perhaps in his spare time.

I don't know.

The night he died, i was in my room

Maybe he called me for help, but I didn't hear anything.

If you only knew how much I hate myself!

- You couldn't have known.

- I remember one thing: the day before he died,

Olivier, his partner, stopped by the manor.

I heard an argument, but there was nothing unusual about it.

It had been frequent, lately.

*- Article 434-4 of the French Code of de procédure pénale

prohibits modification

crime scene

before the 1st judicial operations.

- But... Wait, wait, wait, wait.

I'm looking for an important letter that Edgar had to send me.

It's 3 times nothing. I'll tidy up

- The article details forbidding falsification,

alteration or erasure of evidence,

by adding, moving or or deleting objects.

- I guess it can wait wait for the police to arrive.

- Voilà.

What were you working on?

E.D. Lesneaux ?

- In recent years, his interests interests have been optics.

Edgar has always been a pioneer in the world of VR,

virtual reality.

It hadn't yet caught on on a massive scale,

but the tech giants had sniffed out the potential had sniffed out the potential.

They would have spent a fortune on his patents

- What's all this about? - Edgar had developed a patent

for a revolutionary helmet, 5 years ago

This patent served as the basis for everything that's done today

Since then, he worked tirelessly.

He was obsessed

with the idea of inventing a machine to record his memories.

This is it.

- You'd better leave this office.

- All right, then.

Happy day.

- (I bet everyone is lying, here. Blanche, I swear

(that it's been a while since she slept in her own bed.

(It doesn't smell like the room we sleep in. The bed has never been unmade)

- In that case, where does she sleep? - (That's what I'm wondering.

(In monsieur's bed?

("Like a father to me." My eye! Sugar daddy, yes.

(And what about you? were you able to chat for a while?)

- Chatting.

According to the dictionary definition, papoter...

to talk a lot saying insignificant things)

(Raphaëlle, i can't chat.)

(You do.)

- (Thank you Astrid.) - (You're welcome.)

I caught Olivier Levert. - (Shh.)

(No.)

(Hush.)

- (Can I speak?) - (Yes.)

- (Olivier Levert.) - (Yes.)

- (E.D. Lesneaux's associate, was rummaging in his office)

- (Oh!)

(Blanche heard them yelling at each other)

- Lila Bouvier spoke about him.

While Robert Lazuli,

Bob, spoke of him in terms that struck me as unfriendly.

He said "pretentious prick".

- (Come on. You know something?

(I think lila was back at it

(with Edgar and bob was jealous as hell)

(Are you following me?)

- Absolutely not. I don't understand what you just said.

- (Anyway,

(In this house, everyone had a reason to kill him)

(They're all suspects.) - Raphaëlle, we're not

in charge of the investigation.

Raphaëlle, we're not in charge...

of the survey.

- Wait, Blanche! Hold on, I'll take care of it.

That must be the criminal.

- Maître Karmin. Mr. Lesneaux's notary.

- Ah! - It's monsieur le notaire.

- You're welcome.

- Good morning, Master Karmin. - Good morning, Blanche

The deceased hoped to see his loved ones gathered around his body.

He stipulated in his will that then,

the reading of the will, drawn up on January 8, 2016

in his home, as long as his body would still be there.

If no one objects,

Mrs Astrid Nielsen

and Madame Raphaëlle Coste will act as witnesses.

Very well, then.

"I, the undersigned

"Edgar Denis Lesneaux, born in Granville on November 1, 1956,

"assigns to my son Fitzgerald

"virtually all of my property:

"real estate,

"the manor, as my financial assets

"To Lila Bouvier, I give up

"the property de Saint-Paul-de-Vence,

"where we lived wonderful moments.

"To Olivier, my faithful partner,

"I give up the bicorne that belonged

"to Napoleon, acquired in 2001.

"Sur la quotité

"available,

"I give 500,000 E to the orphanage Gabriel-Garcia-Marquez orphanage in Bogota."

- What?

- "And finally, to Blanche Justin,

"my loyal and devoted housekeeper,

"I leave an annuity of 5,000 E.

"Done

"in Nogent-le-Rotrou,

"January 8, 2016."

- Are you going, or...

- No, I've got it.

- Cmdr Fargeau, research section,

mandated by the Chartres of Chartres to lead the investigation

for suspicion of homicide of E.D. Lesneaux.

Can we see the victim? - Of course we can.

- And then us,

were wondering why... - And how.

- And how a book worth several million euros.

- 2.2 million dollars. - Could have disappeared like that,

at the same time when E. Lesneaux was murdered.

- Wait a minute, who who are you, exactly?

- Ah, I... I thought i'd introduced myself, Perdon.

Commandant Coste,

brigade criminelle de Paris. And Lieutenant Nielsen

identified the criminal origin

of E.D. Lesneaux's death.

- Thanks to toothpaste.

- Yes, we did a little investigating

waiting for you. You can't do it over again.

Don't hesitate to call us.

We would be delighted to work with you.

If you find the palimpsest...

Good.

In any case, he has the merit to be direct, this gendarme.

- "Peripheral neuropathy?

What does this mean?

- That the MRI found lesions in my motor cortex.

The neurotoxins in Lamarck's left me with a bonus.

But the neurologist told me that it was stabilized

It can't get any worse, Nico.

But it's possible that it can't get any better

Hold on, Nico. I'm going to see an occupational therapist tomorrow.

We'll know more. - Okay

What's he saying? *- While in police custody

*of Blanche Justin, the housekeeper edgar Lesneaux, has been extended,

*le Cmdt Fargeau...

- What's this bullshit?

*- Archimedes' palimpsest, valuable book,

*was found in his bedroom.

- I searched that room, and there was no palimpsest!

- You could have missed it. *- This flight is a valid motive.

*She surely expected more from the inheritance.

*There was abuse of weakness, in addition to murder.

- That's rubbish!

I agree,

maybe there were a couple of things things to clarify about it,

but I had a good feeling about her, this housekeeper.

And then this story about a doesn't make sense.

- You don't have all the elements of the investigation.

They may have found something else.

- No. My gut tells me there's something wrong.

- If your gut's telling you...

Commissioner? - Mm?

I know we don't we don't have an appointment...

Oh, nice tie.

Looks good on you, doesn't it...

The complexion, it...

- What do you want?

- The E.D. Lesneaux case. - There's no case

Lesneaux here. She's under the jurisdiction

of the gendarmerie. - I was just thinking that...

that would be...

It could be an asset for the police to collaborate...

- No.

Don't even think about it.

Having stuck your nose is already a fault

I need you here. No return

Thank you.

Close the door on your way out, please.

- This is not an acrostic, nor a Caesar cipher.

I've tried

all combinations.

I thought it might be a mathematical mathematical encryption,

22" would be the key. *- OK, I'll have a look

*what I can find.

- Tetsuo, I have to hang up.

I didn't say goodbye.

*- Astrid? - Yes, hello?

Raphaëlle, you should come to crime documentation

all business. *- Okay, I'm coming.

- I didn't say goodbye.

Two times. One, two.

- Are the snoopers gone? - The snoopers?

- Yes. The auditing people. - Ah. The inventory part

is finished. They will give their conclusions

soon. Raphaëlle... - Yes?

- I have received a new message from Loculus-95.

- Ah!

Does he still want to help us? - Yes.

- And what does this message say?

- "Astrid, thank you for coming and the truth about my death.

"I was working on a prototype. This will help you

"to shed light on the mystery surrounding my murder."

Enclosed is

a compressed file of several gigas.

- Interesting.

Sending a posthumous e-mail to solve his own murder,

sounds good.

There are several options. Option 1:

the mail has been delayed,

written by Edgar during his lifetime knowing that he would die.

- This hypothesis seems unlikely to me.

Even if Edgar Denis Lesneaux knew he was in danger,

it's unlikely that he knew when his murder would take place.

- I agree.

2nd option:

it's someone who uses his mailbox

to ask you to get the truth out.

And I bet that this unknown mystery

was at the wake and we must have bumped into him.

Did you open the attachment? - I certainly did.

I don't understand what this is about what this is all about

Look, I'll open it.

- Calling Norah.

- These are immersive videos. - Immersive videos?

- The mansion's laboratory contained elements

related to virtual reality. - Wait,

are these immersive videos or virtual reality?

- The easiest thing would be to try it, wouldn't it?

- Yes.

- This is my personal PC, the one I play on.

A big beast built for gaming.

Ryzen 9, RTX 4090, 64 gig RAM.

With this, for VR, there's no lag and no FPS drop.

It's going to be velvet.

- Oh... No, no, no, no, no.

- No? - No, it's not...

Not my thing.

- It doesn't suck. - I know, but... No.

- Me.

I don't mind putting it on.

It could be a crisis having that thing on your head.

- Raphaëlle, virtual reality offers a secure universe,

without physical contact and accessible only by looking.

If it doesn't suit me,

i can remove the helmet.

It's less oppressive than the real world.

- I agree. - That's right. That's right.

Everything all right, Astrid?

- Yes. - Can you describe

what do you see?

- I'm in the manor.

In E.D. Lesneaux's room. *- Hello.

- Voice.

- WE HEAR IT TOO. *- I am

*E.D. Lesneaux. Turn around, if you can't see me

*Immersive video, is nothing new.

*But the camera that allowed me to shoot

*the one you're watching is revolutionary:

*it's in my glasses.

*And that changes everything.

- There's a mirror, but it's not my face my face in it,

it's Edgar of Edgar Denis Lesneaux.

He's talking to me. *- Thanks to these glasses,

*i record this immersive video

*exactly from my point of view.

*You're living this moment as if you were me, aren't you? you were me, aren't you?

*As if you were in this room,

*looking at yourself in the mirror,

*except that it's my image that the mirror reflects back to you.

- Absolutely. Mm.

*- Don't try to answer me or move,

*you can't interact with the environment,

*since these are recorded recorded.

*It's more like a machine to record memories.

- Norah, can you display the files?

- Yes.

This is it.

- See, there?

The dates show

that the videos were recorded just before E. Lesneaux's death.

- You can experience your last moments from his point of view.

- Astrid, keep watching and and look for interesting elements.

Norah, join Nico at the brigade.

Try to understand why Edgar did

such a large donation to a Colombian orphanage

We're going to put it back on track, this investigation.

...

*- Didn't Bob see you go up? *- He's watching Manchester-Barça.

*We've got at least 45 minutes ahead of us.

*- There's something touching touching about him

*He must think I take him for an idiot. He doesn't.

*I'll go watch the 2nd half with him

*- Ah... Unless we add...

*overtime.

*Undress me.

*- Is that,

*when a woman cheats on her lover

*with her cuckolded husband,

*is it still adultery?

*- I don't know, Edgar, but i would never have gone with Bob

*if you hadn't cheated on me with that...

*What was her name again? Camilla?

*- Let's not talk about the past anymore. Come on

- They go bim.

I'm going to close my eyes.

*- Edgaaar...

- And what did he say?

- He didn't say much. He sends me the results

*tomorrow.

- Is it good?

I'll put you on speaker

- Hi Raph. *- Hi Norah.

- The director of the orphanage received

donations from France, regular donations

and significant from an anonymous donor.

*- Anonymous?

Crap! Astrid

told us about the name Camelia. 20 years ago,

a child born to a Camelia Torres and unknown father

has arrived at the orphanage. - The child's name is Julien.

*Julien Torres, a French name.

*- It's also the first name of Edgar Lesneaux's father edgar Lesneaux's father.

The victim had a hidden son.

*I'll leave you to it.

*- I've always loved this place.

*I am delighted to share this moment with you.

*You can't smell them, of course, but the smells are wonderful.

*- Ed, are you talking to yourself?

*Did you forget something?

*- I don't think so.

*- I want my money.

*- I've been too generous with you, Corentin

*This blackmail has gone on far too long.

- Astrid? *- I've prepared a letter

*which is ready to be sent to the press

*She's talking about an illegal mission you financed.

*Would your official family would like to know about this?

*- I myself have collected compromising documents

*about your mercenary activities since you were kicked out of the army

*That's right,

*a weapon of deterrence: you drop your bomb,

*I drop mine.

- Ah! - Oh my!

- No touching. - Perdon.

- I wasn't hit.

- I'm so sorry, i didn't mean to touch you.

What happened?

- Corentin Maille,

he lied.

He saw Edgar

shortly before his death. And he is the haematoma on his face.

- Did he hit him? - Yes.

Mr. Maille practiced blackmail him.

- Yes, I heard bits of... "Commando".

- An illegal commando mission

that might displease his official family. It wasn't clear.

- Yes, it's very clear. It overlaps what we've learned from you:

camelia's existence.

She was a cleaning lady on a military base in Bogota.

Edgar had a child with her whom they named Julien.

Camelia died shortly a short time later.

Julien therefore

was placed in an orphanage, the one mentioned in the will

And as an adult, he joined FARC,

a Colombian Marxist guerrilla group. - I know. FARC financed

their guerrillas through kidnapping, extortion and drug trafficking.

- That's it.

The problem is that we can't question him, this Julien.

He was killed in 2017 in a military operation.

- The illegal operation.

I return to Edgar's memories.

The answer must be there.

I couldn't find any memories about the palimpsest.

- Yes, the palimpsest.

You be careful. Blows and all that.

All right, then.

- I'm going back.

You changed your glasses.

*- I know that you've been embezzling

*- Perdon? How do you... where you get that from?

that I'm not pressing charges

- (No kidding!)

(OK. Thanks, Astrid. See you later)

(Pss! Norah!)

- Yes?

- (We have a spy.)

- What else? - (At the mansion.)

(Astrid saw a sort of double partition,

(a space to observe and hear

(what's being said in the living room, and why not in other rooms?

(In my opinion,

(This is our mysterious messenger. I'm sure we've come across him

(at the manor.)

- (Hey, I found something crazy.) - You too?

- (Yeah. Under the Occupation,

(the manor was headquarters of the Kommandantur.

(Everything was requisitioned, except for one one wing of the building, which was left

(at the disposal of Julien Lesneaux and his family. Julien,

(Edgar's father, not his son.

- (What does this have to do to our story?)

- (I went to yadvashem.org. Julien was honoured

(as "Righteous among the nations" because he saved the Slavisky family.

(He hid a Jewish family

(in the middle of a Nazi nest.) - (Oh, fuck!)

(You're a genius.)

- (Why?)

(Why?)

...

- Hello, Fitzgerald.

What kind of invitation is that? - I don't know. It's not from me. It's not from me.

- From the editorial point of view,

it looked more like a than an invitation.

Ah!

Right, then.

- Anybody know what we're doing in here? Not again!

It was one of you who invited us invited us. Let him turn himself in, damn it!

I'm off.

- Don't go, Monsieur Maille, it's about to get interesting.

- What the hell is this? - Please sit down.

Sit down, please!

Thank you for your time.

- I can't believe it!

- We're still expecting 4 guests. Yes.

- You'd better be convincing, Major Coste.

- The facts speak for themselves, my dear colleague.

Well done!

- Last time, I discovered

a page torn out from the Gospel of Saint Mark,

hidden by the victim at the foot of the lectern.

The message that E.D. Lesneaux wanted wanted to convey was not

what was written on this page, but the page itself.

Mm. This is a page from the New Testament

Edgar Denis Lesneaux made a lexical a lexical analogy

voluntary.

This page means:

that there is a new testament,

a will in the notarial sense of the word.

- Please come.

Can you see it? Take a look.

This is a palimpsest on the palimpsest,

text on text.

In reality,

it's a new will written by the victim by the victim

- When he started feeling to feel ill,

Edgar realized that he had been poisoned.

Courageously,

Edgar had accepted the fact that he was going to die.

So he set about to draw up a will

on the very page of the palimpsest.

- This has no value. - Master,

would you mind... Thank you for your time.

- No touching.

- This is a completely original case of a holographic will.

It is dated, signed and handwritten therefore perfectly valid.

- And what does it say, master?

- That he leaves everything to his son Fitzgerald, with one exception:

patents. - Ah!

The most valuable thing.

To whom does he assign his patents, master?

- The patents, he assigns them to...

"Blanche Justin,

"my faithful maid".

- And that's it. All this confirms

the trail already blazed by the authorities:

it was Blanche who murdered him, to get his fortune.

- Why kill him before

that he redid a will that benefited him?

You, on the other hand,

you had everything to lose if this will was disclosed.

- Are you joking?

I would have killed my own father

for a few patents?

- We'll get to that.

We've long wondered

who was behind loculus 95's messages.

- Loculus dash 95.

A piece of the puzzle was missing. - What Astrid means,

is that we were missing a character in the story.

- Loculus-95,

it's me, Astrid, Astrid Nielsen, from the Puzzle Buddies forum.

If you can hear me, give it a whack,

but not too loud.

- Spiritism, now! They've done everything to us!

- Mm.

Here's how to proceed:

type one stroke for yes, two strokes for no,

but not too hard. no.

Do you agree?

Are you a separate person

of E.D. Lesneaux?

- Did you

a family connection

with him?

Is he your father?

You are

Julien Torres. You didn't died in the FARC, did you?

- Do you know

who killed your father?

- So, you called in astrid?

That's good, because we have the beginnings of an answer.

you don't have to go out

We know you're

agoraphobic.

Your father had been prescribed paroxetine for 8 years prescribed paroxetine,

but this product does not appear in his toxicology.

Was that for you?

You all had

a good reason to kill Edgar.

- You, Mr. Maille,

were blackmailing him,

threatening to reveal the operation that exfiltrated Julien

from the FARC organization.

- But Edgar has decided to give in to this blackmail.

- You, Mr. Levert,

when I caught you rummaging through his desk,

looking for the letter that signified your dismissal.

- I read the letter. An excellent motive, I must say.

- Nonsense! - You, Mrs. Justin,

you never slept in your bedroom.

- But with Julien.

Is that why you didn't speak up when you were arrested.

Having to help Edgar hide it and protect it,

you fell in love with him.

- Who is this Julien? What does he to do with this story?

- Ms. Bouvier, you're not listening.

Julien Torres is the son of Edgar Denis Lesneaux.

- Yep! An illegitimate son,

whom Edgar has never been able to bear to have abandoned,

and that he went to Colombia 8 years ago.

Whom we took for dead,

but in reality, Edgar hid it here.

A son with whom he had such an intimate bond

that you couldn't stand it.

- You thought your crime would go unnoticed.

But Julien Torres contacted me.

- And he was right to do so.

She soon discovered the truth.

So you improvised.

You stole the palimpsest and put it in the bedroom

of Blanche.

- He took care of that bastard like he never took care of me.

He loved him more than me.

...

- What will become of Julien Torres?

He's never been out of the manor in 8 years.

- I think the the court will be lenient.

He has an outstanding conviction for joining FARC,

but his file mentions

that he had suffered post-traumatic stress disorder.

It developed in him acute agoraphobia.

He will serve his sentence with an electronic bracelet.

- Mm. Perfect.

I can continue with Loculus-95.

- Astrid...

There's something I have to tell you.

I have after-effects, from the poisoning.

So, nothing dramatic in itself, but...

they call it a problem...

engine...

A fine motor problem.

And...

I don't want to worry you, but if it doesn't get better...

i won't be able my job as a cop.

Do you understand?

Astrid?

Can I have a look?

"Madam,

"in a context of budget normalization and optimization

"linked to the digital transition,

"a reassessment of physical archiving archiving requirements.

"The audit confirmed that most of the resources had been digitized.

"Thus, the decommissioning of dedicated spaces and the activation

"of the dismantling of physical have been implemented."

I'm not sure I understand.

I'm not sure I understand, Astrid.

- Criminal documentation will disappear.

- Damn it!
