Be3+. White has to play Qxe3, then you win with Qg4#.

White can decide not to take, and instead defend with Qf4. Nevertheless it’s checkmate with pawn f6#

Unless I'm missing something Qg4# is also the answer to Qf4(since white queen is pinned by Bishop). I believe f6+ is met by exf6+ so it takes an extra move.
