Black Dahlia Hints
How can I get the conductor to leave his office?
1 of 9: Create a diversion.
2 of 9: Search the baggage compartment for something to assist you towards that end.
3 of 9: Pulling the cord near the ceiling would abruptly stop the train, but you had better not get caught.
4 of 9: Have you looked at any of the boxes and suitcases?
5 of 9: A heavy suitcase in the middle of the baggage car can be lifted on top of a chest. It falls over with the movement of the train.
6 of 9: Is there a way to connect the suitcase to the cord?
7 of 9: Find some string on one of the shelves.
8 of 9: Lift the heavy bag onto the chest and use the string on the suitcase. (If you are unable to use the string, look at more of the bags in the car, or talk to the conductor once more and try again.)
9 of 9: Hanging around is not a good idea. Head immediately for the Office.
