Agatha Christie: Murder on the Orient Express Hints
I have all the stuff. How do I use it to read the paper?
1 of 5: What you're basically going to do here is put the paper between the two hat forms, then suspend it over the lamp. The flame will briefly make the words reappear, I think because the inked part of the paper will burn before the blank paper. Go back to Poirot's room; you'll assemble it all on his nightstand.
2 of 5: First we need to light the lamp. In inventory, combine the lamp and the matches, then put the lit lamp on the left side of the nightstand.
3 of 5: Put the first hat form on the table, then try to put the paper on it.
4 of 5: You can't, because the paper is so fragile Antoinette doesn't want to handle it. What do you have in inventory that might allow you to safely pick up this brittle bit of stuff?
5 of 5: In inventory, combine the paper and the curling tongs, then put that on the hat form. Put the second hat form on top of that, and Antoinette will do the rest automatically.
