Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper Hints
How can I give the contact the answers he wants when I call him?
1 of 14: First, you'll have to find the answers written down on paper.
2 of 14: They're probably on Bulling's desk.
3 of 14: What you need are Bulling's notes, which are in front of the typewriter.
4 of 14: After you get those, return to the phone and try it again.
5 of 14: Walesby will then ask you three questions that you have to piece together the answers to.
6 of 14: You can't actually read Bulling's notes, so you'll have to figure out the answers yourself.
7 of 14: Pay close attention to the current question, then see which answer parts might have something to do with it.
8 of 14: When you think you know an answer, click on its first part to pick it up, then click it on the blank spot underneath the first part's options. Repeat with the second and third parts. If you're right, Holmes will give the answer to Walesby, and you'll move on to the next question.
9 of 14: TIP: It helps to keep in mind that the answers are mostly humorous.
10 of 14: The first question asks about the bizarre theft of cigarettes and carrots. The most relevant thing from the first set of answer parts is "Scotland Yard."
11 of 14: The second and third parts make up the humorous aspect of the answer.
12 of 14: They are "is searching for a rabbit" (because of the stolen carrots) and "that coughs" (because of the stolen cigarettes).
13 of 14: After you form the sentence "Scotland Yard is searching for a rabbit that coughs," you'll get the second question. Deal with it and the third question similarly.
14 of 14: See below for the answers to the second and third questions.
