Are you stuck, but still want to solve the mystery? You’ll find important tips here that will help bring you closer to solving the mystery.
No. 1 Inn sign
1.
A01, B02, C=3, D=4, …
2.
The numbers are connected to the letters you need to find.
3.
The third in the first, the second in the second and the first in the third.
Solution
The Roman numerals indicate the positions of the letters you are looking for with respect to the three words. So they point to the third letter in the first word, the second letter in the second word and the first letter in the third word. This gives you the letters E, H and I. If you look at these letters in terms of their position in the alphabet (A=1, B=2, C=3, …), then you get E=5, H=8 and I=9.

No. 3 Compass rose
1.
The newspaper and the compass rose go together.
2.
The word “NEWS” is clearly visible.
3.
“NE”, “W” and “S” indicate the directions on the compass rose.
Solution
The letters “NE”, “W” and “S” on the newspaper stand for different points on the compass rose. If you look closely, you will see that there are numbers positioned at various points around the compass rose. The letters “NE” stand for North-East and this gives us the value 2 on the compass rose. “W” stands for West, which gives us the value 7. “S” stands for South, giving us the value 5.

No. 6 Flags
1.
The colors of the three flags are relevant.

Solution
With the aid of the FLAG ABC, the colors of the three flags will provide the correct answer. The flag on the left with the colors light blue + green gives us blue + white + yellow + blue = 2 + 1 + 4 + 2 = 9. The flag in the middle with the colors blue + white + red = 2 + 1 + 3 = 6. The flag on the right with the colors pink + white gives us red + white + white = 3 + 1 + 1 = 5.
