Witch Game 5 - The Anniversary

[Kuroaitou]

Alright, back into this.

Person A unlocked Stanley's room through a guest room key that was either stolen or obtained through other means. Person A and the killer, Person B, both entered Stanley's room. After Person B killed Stanley (Person A simply witnessed this), both of them left the room, and Person A relocked the door from the outside.

Slight adjustment.

Stanley called Simon's Office phone to invite a person in. Instead of Simon answering, a person (named Person A or Person B) answered, and requested that they figure out a way to meet up in his guest room. Person A unlocked Stanley's room through a guest room key that was either stolen or obtained through other means. Person A and the killer, Person B, both entered Stanley's room. After Person B killed Stanley (Person A simply witnessed this), both of them left the room, and Person A relocked the door from the outside.

Oh, new blue truths! Sadly I have to swing them back in red.

When Stanley died, there were no more than 2 people (including him) in his guestroom.

Rate the current mystery's difficulty:

"Gotta solve it with the next 5 blue truths."
"Gotta solve it in a day if all of us start focusing on it."
"A bit tricky, but nothing that we couldn't handle."
"This is really challenging."
"I'm out of ideas."

Sorry, been a bit busy the past few weeks really. Will probably have some time either during he weekend, or during the next week. I would be a shame to see the Witch win.
Not gonna rate anything, the death in activity (from my side at least) is more of a "don't feel like/don't have enough time to do anything now". Hopefully both time and motivation will be here in the coming weekend!

That's good to hear that you didn't give up yet.

How about the others?

[Kuroaitou]

3-4 stars on the other 2 non-Simon mysteries. The first mystery of the landlord is at a 5 star, because I exhausted my options and I need to tackle this when a) I'm not stressing out, and b) hosting/playing the other games weren't as intensive as well.

Bump.~

[Kuroaitou]

After Stanley was killed, his murderer left the room through a window or a secret passage, and another person (known as 'B') locked the room while checking the hallways, noting that the door was unlocked upon observation.

[Submachine]

The only way for a murderer to exit Stanley's guestroom is by passing through the main door.

[Kuroaitou]

After the murderer unlocked Stanley's room (via a guest room key, a copy of a key, or lockpicking), they entered the room, killed Stanley, and then destroyed OR hid the key within the room and left the room through the main door. A second person used the masterkey to lock the door on the outside, while the relevant key was never used/seen again.

Truth incomplete; how was the door opened before the murderer could enter?

The key that Natalie and you used to unlock Stanley's room was the same key that unlocked the same door during the previous time. (This refers to the time when the door was last opened)
