Sinking Island Hints
Where can I find the code for the computer system Lorenzo mentions?
1 of 13: If you speak to Lorenzo today, he will tell you that the computer system is capable of printing out lists of which access cards were used in which parts of the building at specific times.
2 of 13: Being able to find out who entered the library at the time of the murder would certainly be very useful.
3 of 13: Lorenzo says that you will need a code to access the system, and unfortunately that only Walter Jones knew the code.
4 of 13: Perhaps he wrote it down somewhere, and hid it in his office?
5 of 13: Head there, on the 21st floor, beyond the library, and take a look around his desk.
6 of 13: Did you notice the small red light on the bottom of the desk?
7 of 13: It's not a button -- it's an infrared receiver.
8 of 13: There is a remote control that can be used to operate it, and if you examined the situation in the library on the way through to the office, you should already have that remote control.
9 of 13: It was in Hubert De Nolent's pocket.
10 of 13: You can use this code to unlock the drawers in the desk.
11 of 13: You will find a button in the top drawer, which will in turn open a secret compartment elsewhere in the room.
12 of 13: Inside this hidden compartment, you will find a small scrap of paper with the code on it.
13 of 13: Giving this code to Lorenzo in his office means he will give you a list of those who entered the library between 9pm and midnight on the evening of the murder.
