Map Puzzle -

Look close at luminous board.

Open inventory and select tacked New York map from notebook.

Click on map and it will be the cursor. Click it on luminous board.

In inventory while at close up of the luminous board, look at any of the other maps, ex: NY sewers map, NY elevated rail(sub)way map or the  NY electrical supply.

Click on one of the maps. It will be seen as hanging from the cursor.

Click it over the NY map with tacks. Move it around to match the Tacked map.

When the elevated rail(sub)way map from inventory is placed correctly over the tacked NY map, hear a tum de da dum music and you will not be able to separate the 2 maps.

The yellow tacked places (crime scenes) match the subway route.

Talk to Miss Robinson and tell her it is the elevated railway system. Get a new location on the map.

 

Crime scene 27 Nov:

See a lady of the day (night) in green standing by the lamp post. Turn right and enter the gate and look around. Climb the stairs through the door and look around. On the outside balcony at second floor of this building, see a building with windows across the rail track. Go back down and out of the gate.

Cross the rail track and climb the metal ladder. Look out the window and now see the green dressed woman embracing a man inside the gate enclosure across the rail track.

Day 11 - Nighttime

Crime 27 Nov:

Go across the rail track, climb up the metal steps and set the camera up on the floor in front of the window.

Face the camera straight on (centered) when you click the eye icon to look through the camera. If you are at an angle, the focus of the camera might be off centered and difficult to control.

Look (eye cursor) through the camera (darkroom) and move click-drag the crosshair to the balcony on the right. See the green dressed woman and a man wearing a top hat about to attack her with a knife.

Immediately click the bulb on top right when Jack appears on the circle of the crosshair.

You write another story - Checkmate! Day ends when you look at the sky.

The one of them said to his mate,
