since you're gonna do a mystery, the most common thing is your basic "who did it". write about an incident ,murder, thievery(someone stole something), or maybe the main character is accused of something and must clear their own name then the culprit turns out to be someone close to them, is an idea. You could also just pick something out of your life for example people or something that happened to you and tweak it to be an interesting mystery.
the most interesting mysteries are the ones when you don't expect the person who did it to have done it. so do not make it someone with a clear mean streak or criminal background. provide the twist by making it the quite character you would never except and make a clear story why they did it, don't just say it for no apparent reason. Plant an obviously unkind character as a decoy.
Good luck your readers will never expect it.
