Hercule Poirot was called to investigate a murder case where the killer seemed enthusiastic about leaving the clues behind probably because he was intrigued by the intelligence and crime solving skills of Hercule Poirot.
Loraine was murdered in her house. She was stabbed to death. There were five people present in her house at the time of the murder - Christopher, Marcus, Stella, Mindy and Sophia.
The murderer left a note on six different places: Compound, Art Room, Restroom, Underwater Room, Study Room and Movie Room with a single line text in each one of them - "The clues are where you find the notes."
While there was nothing found at the places where the note was left, Hercule Poirot was able to find the murderer.
Can you decipher the clues and find out who the murderer is?
Solution:
The murderer is Marcus.
The notes hinted towards the name of Marcus. How?
Just take the first letter from Compound, Art Room, Restroom, Underwater Room, Study Room and Movie Room and you will get:
C, A, R, U, S and M.
Rearranging these words leads to the name Marcus who is the murderer.
