17 Riddles to Test If You Have a Detective's Eye

[music] >> Detective Luna is at a luxury hotel investigating the disappearance [music] of a rare necklace during a cocktail party. Three guests were nearby at the time. Erica, [music] who says she was admiring the flower arrangement, Dominic, who claims to have been to the bathroom, and Lydia, who claims to have gone to get some water. Well, who stole the necklace? Ms. Erica claims to have only looked at the flower arrangements, >> [music] >> but the display case with the necklace faces a mirror. If she had really been looking at the flowers, she'd have seen the jewels missing in the reflection and reported it. Also, she's wearing gloves to avoid leaving fingerprints. Aha. Luna needs to find a hidden message in one of three umbrellas left behind at a coffee shop after suspicious encounter. Do you know which umbrella hides the message? The blue umbrella is still wet, so [music] it has been left behind only recently. The red one is damaged on the outside, and it has no obvious hiding [music] spots. The black umbrella has a barely noticeable tear in the inner lining. It's the perfect hiding place [music] for a folded message. Luna has come to Africa to investigate a tricky smuggling case. But while she's there, why not go on a safari? She needs to choose an experienced guide. Mark says he's been working as a guide for years and always takes along some meat [music] to lure rhinos to the car. Adam wants the investigator to pick him and claims [music] to know where a hippo family lives. Anthony says that he has his own Jeep packed with cool gizmos [music] that can drive over the most uneven surfaces. Who should Luna choose? Rhinos are herbivores that never eat meat. Hippos are the least friendly animals in Africa. Luna should pick Anthony who has a powerful car. During a mission in the basement of a museum, Luna must identify which of three wooden boxes contains [music] a stolen artifact. The informant has left a cryptic note, "Silence holds the true sounds." Which box has the stolen artifact? The box with new nails is probably a distraction made to seem important. [music] The one with the bell makes a sound when moved. It would be easy to notice if someone moved it. The box with discreet holes suggests ventilation. If the artifact is delicate or sensitive, it needs air. Plus, it's the only box that remains completely silent and inconspicuous. Luna is in an art gallery to intercept a person [music] who wants to steal a rare painting. Three visitors are alone in the room close to the work in question. One of them is the disguised thief. Which person is the criminal? The woman is actively interacting with several works of art, drawing too much attention to herself. The young man is just observing the art with his hands in his pockets. As for the man with the notebook, he's sitting with his [music] back to the painting, which seems suspicious for someone in a gallery. He's the thief. Luna arrived at Long Hill College, where many students [music] had their things stolen. Soon, she had three suspects. When questioned, Thomas said that he had been away when the thefts had happened. He took his younger sister to rehearsals. Amanda said [music] she'd spent that day in the library getting ready for her presentation. And Ryan said he'd spent all his free time learning Dutch since he was going to Denmark with his parents in the summer. Luna immediately understood who was lying. Can you figure it out? It was Ryan. They [music] speak Danish in Denmark. Dutch is the language of the Netherlands. During one of her investigations, [music] Luna finds herself in a locked room. Inside, there's a table with three cups on it. To get out, she needs to drink from one of the cups, but only one of the drinks is safe to try. The other two are poison. The drinks are tea with sugar, cappuccino, and hot chocolate. Which one should Luna choose? If it was indeed sugar [music] in the tea, it would have melted completely, but it hasn't. Cappuccino [music] looks suspiciously green. So, Luna chooses the hot chocolate and leaves the room unharmed. Luna is on her lunch break at home >> [screaming] >> when she hears screams coming from her neighbor's house. The door is open, and when she runs inside, she sees a paramedic bending over a lying man. Once the [music] doctor sees her, he hurries to explain that Luna's neighbor has fallen down the stairs, and apparently, the paramedic needs to take him to the hospital. Luna immediately calls the ambulance and the police. Why? When Luna was running toward her neighbor's house, she didn't see any cars outside. Then, how did the paramedic get there? How did he know his help was needed? Luna is investigating a tricky case. David worked at a construction [music] site. The day before, someone attacked him, and the unconscious man was taken to a [music] hospital. Luna already has three suspects. Alex, Ryan, and John. Alex says he [music] was putting tiles on the roof when the accident happened. Ryan confesses that he was sleeping under a tree. And John claims that he was laying [music] bricks at that time. Help Luna understand who is behind the attack. Alex is the one that hurt David. The building has no roof yet, so he couldn't put tiles up there. Luna is walking through the park when someone grabs her bag from behind. The person runs away, but Luna's pretty sure it's a woman. The thief disappears inside a school building. Inside, Luna sees three teachers. Soon, she figures out which one took her bag. Can you do the same? The woman in the middle wouldn't be able to run away with a cast on her leg. The one on the right doesn't have anything in her hands. But the woman on the left has a big bag on her shoulder. A real teacher wouldn't need it in the classroom. Someone has stolen a secret development from a scientific lab. There are three suspects, and Luna has to figure out which of them is the criminal. Can you help her? It's the man on the right. His ID doesn't match his identity. Luna is investigating a confusing case. [music] Three friends went out to lunch. Look, they ate the same food, but two of them got food poisoning. >> [music] >> So, why is this other guy fine? Have you figured it out yet? The guy who was fine [music] after the meal didn't drink coffee. The drinks were poisoned, not the [music] food. Luna is following a criminal, but after the man turns the corner, he vanishes into thin air. After wandering around for a while, Luna comes across a small park with a lake. Right on the shore, there are several marble statues. She is about to pass by when something draws her attention. She realizes where the criminal is. Can you figure it out, too? One of the statues [music] is looking at its watch. It's the criminal Luna is after. Each of these three people claims to be the creator of this painting. Luna has to find out who's telling the truth. [music] Can you help her? The artist is Olivia. See, it's her signature on the painting. Luna's friend Tina has come to her because she believes her boyfriend is cheating on her. Luna looks at the photos the boyfriend sent Tina and confirms the girl's fears. How did she figure it out? There's a lipstick stain on the glass in the kitchen. Once Luna questioned three doctors and all of them said that Paul was their brother, but Paul swore he didn't have any brothers. Luna didn't think it was suspicious. Why? Because Paul had three sisters, all of them doctors. One of the suspects Luna was tracking hid in a cafe. >> [music] >> When the detective entered, there were three clients inside. Look at them attentively and say who is suspicious. It's the woman in a green t-shirt. [music] She's using a fork to eat soup. She must be the suspect. >> [music]
