The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes Hints
How do I get into the warehouse at the docks?
1 of 14: You'll have to satisfy Watson by looking through the window.
2 of 14: But the window is too dirty to do you any good right now.
3 of 14: Did you notice the pail above the door? If you could reach it, you might be able to clean the window.
4 of 14: You need to climb something.
5 of 14: Push the crate and stand on it.
6 of 14: Don't forget the rag.
7 of 14: Push the crate back to where it belongs and you'll find it.
8 of 14: There's a huge source of water nearby to get that rag wet.
9 of 14: The Thames, of course.
10 of 14: Put the pail in the Thames and then put the rag in the pail.
11 of 14: You can clean the window with the wet rag and look through it.
12 of 14: Have you seen anything heavy that might open that door?
13 of 14: Open the door to the "closet" and then take the hammer inside.
14 of 14: Use it on the door and you'll be able to get inside the warehouse.
