Sherlock Holmes: Silver Earring Hints
How on earth can I understand the safe code?
1 of 7: You found the code to open Bromsby's safe inside Fowlett's safe after solving the Noah's Ark puzzle.
2 of 7: Honestly I don't completely understand the reasoning behind the code myself. Reading the code, rather than adding it up, seems to be the key. In fact, you may understand it better if you read it *out loud*.
3 of 7: Each line translates the one above it. For instance, the first line reads One. The second line reads One One, meaning that there was one of the number 1 in the 1st row (1).
4 of 7: The third line says Two Ones, translating the 2nd line (1 1).
