The Testament of Sherlock Holmes Hints
How can I finish up this deduction board?
1 of 8: Click on the new "Lungs" entry to get a "?" item that's connected to the facts that Kurtz smoked opium and traces of it were found in his lungs.
2 of 8: That leads us to conclude that he was poisoned by a mixture of opium and poison.
3 of 8: Answering that one will bring up another one that's connected to the fact that Kurtz fought savagely against his dogs.
4 of 8: That strongly indicates that he was poisoned by the same poison as the bishop.
5 of 8: A new "?" item will then appear on the second page, connected to the fact that Kurtz was given a pipe that already had opium in it.
6 of 8: As Holmes deduced earlier, his accomplices brought him the pipe.
7 of 8: Setting that "?" item will bring up one final item that brings it all together.
8 of 8: It's clear by now that Kurtz was poisoned by his accomplices.
