Nancy Drew 18: The Phantom of Venice Hints

What do I do with the fax machine?

• 1 of 9: You'll never be receiving a fax on this machine, so don't worry about loading it with paper. Instead, just keep your eyes open for something you can enter on the keypad (numbers, #, and *).
• 2 of 9: After you talk to Margherita about her argument with Fango --
  • How do I find out about Margherita's argument?
• 3 of 9: -- she'll give you a flyer about wifi. Turn it over and look on the back. Just what we're looking for!
• 4 of 9: Go to Fango's office and enter the code here (111 # 046) on the fax machine, and it spits out a card with twelve black dots with nonsense syllables. Or are they?
• 5 of 9: If you sing, you might recognize what are called solfeggio syllables. Remember the song in "Sound of Music" about "Doe, a Deer" and all that? Do, re, mi, and so on are the whole notes; di, ri, fi, and so on are the half notes. But don't worry, you don't need to sing.
• 6 of 9: The black dots are arranged like the keypad on the fax machine, and there's a space next to the machine (when you're looking at it closely) where you can put the paper. So clearly you need to translate some sort of music into numbers on the keypad here. Look around Fango's office for something musical.
• 7 of 9: On the shelf to the right of the cabinet where you've hidden a couple of times, there's a music box. Wind it up and play it through, writing down all the syllables. Here they are if you can't write fast enough:
  • Music Box Notes
• 8 of 9: Once you have them all, go back to the fax machine and enter them on the keypad of the fax machine. If you're having trouble, the numbers are:
  • Fax Number
• 9 of 9: If you got them all right, you'll be into Sognetrico's message system. Cool!
