WALKTHROUGH:

We're going to the crime scene. After the mayor's speech, we begin to explore the ruins. We go to the right and study the evidence. We go towards the laundry room. We find a torn shirt. We go to the officer and examine the unburnt locker. We open the cabinet and find a camera, a decoder and a message, a golden ball. We decipher the message by aligning the rings K, H and combining them. We get the address - North Vermont Avenue one hundred and thirty-three. We go and meet the owner of the plant, Fred Nicholson. We begin to interrogate him:

Question: Nicholson Plant Explosion (What do you know about the explosion?)

Answer: Doubt.

Question: Whereabouts of Okamoto (Where is Okamoto?)

Answer: Lie, evidence camera (Spy camera)

Question:Whereabouts of McLellan (Where is McLellan?)

Answer: Doubt


We're going to the Apartment. We go into the apartment. Open the refrigerator and find the clock. We find a tai ping next to the fireplace. There's a trail of blood on the way to the bedroom - we'll examine it. There is a ball in the closet in the back room. We find microfilm. We study all the evidence and food to the laundry (Superior Laundry Services). Let's go in and look at the book. The required number is J2620. Under this number is the person we need, Oscar Hangstrom. We speak with Ray Pinker and go to Hughes Aircraft. Let's go and start interrogating Vernon Mapes:

Question: Nicholson Plant Explosion (What do you know about the explosion?)

Answer: Doubt

Question: Knowledge of Okamoto (Do you know Okamoto?)

Answer: Doubt

Question: Knowledge of McLellan (Do you know McLellan?)

Answer: False, Prop spinner


We find oil on the nose of the plane and navigation inside. On the navigation you will find coordinates 7600 longitude, latitude 2415. In Mapes' office we find photographs. We go to the back of the plane and watch the video. We're going to the station. We begin to carefully examine the evidence. After that we go to the photographer’s house (House in Photograph). We enter the house. There is trash on the floor, and a ticket and passport on the table. We're trapped by Mapes. The house is on fire, to get out, shoot at the gas cylinder and run out into the street. We're going behind the hangar. While chasing Vernon, we will be disturbed. Ignore it and run to the hangar. Shoot all the bad guys here. The matter is completed.
