Cipher #047Sleuth
The Midnight Memo
A locked editorial office at the Thornfield Gazette, late evening
A sealed envelope was found slipped under the door of the editor-in-chief's office. Inside was a single folded note bearing a short encoded message. Security footage shows four staff members still in the building when the note was delivered.
The rules
- Four people in this building are known to write coded notes. Each has a different cipher style.
- Six clues describe their habits and one important property of the note itself.
- Use the clues to decode the message and name the encoder.
- One submission. You can’t change your answer.
