Expose, is this solvable from just the information provided? Do we absolutely NEED to ask questions to figure out where it is, or can we make inferences from the information you gave us and figure out where the paper is?

It's in Car A.

well at number 4 you say that 'he took the stack of papers from car A except for 1 page'. That means that one yellow piece of paper is still left in car A even after hes done all these things?

Or at clue 7 you say the passenger took 1 pag to te computer room. He never took it back so it could ve there too?


In #4 you ignored the part about the kitchen. The passenger took all the yellow papers from the car to the kitchen counter, 1 yellow paper was not put on the kitchen counter.


Is the 1 yellow paper the passenger did not put on the kitchen counter the yellow piece of paper he needed?


she already said earlier that it is not the same paper he is looking for

expose, does your highlighting of some words in red have any specific meaning? In some cases, you color a word red and then in the next step the same word is not colored.


No, there is not special meaning behind it. I highlight certain words/phrases to make distinctions between items so that you're not confused.
