Clue #3 – Invitation Poster

For this clue, you will need to make your way to the La Mesa Restaurant. However, you won’t be having any nice meals!

Additionally, there is a UV light lying alongside a Basketball. Investigate the items and you’ll get your clue here. Halfway done!

Clue #6 – Hidden Drawings

The basketball from the previous clue means that you will need to go visit the Basketball Court. Initially, when you arrive there, you will see that everything is normal. This is where you will need to equip the UV Light that you found from the clue in the Auto Shop.

Equip the UV Light and start looking around the court for hidden markings. Eventually, you will be able to find a drawing of a map. Investigate these Hidden Drawings to get the clue.

Clue #7 – Dead Body and Riddle

The next clue will require you to go to the Construction Site. However, the construction site is huge which is why you will need to help with the map that you got from the Hidden Drawings. This map will point to a location with large dirt mounds next to a crane.

Look for a shelf that has an Envelope with a creepy logo, as seen with the other clues. Then, investigate the Envelope to obtain this clue.

Clue #9 – Locked Underground Door

For this clue, you will need to go to the address mentioned on the Envelope. That means you will need to go to the house at 7011 Franklin Court. However, instead of going inside the house, you should make your way towards the back.

Here, you should be able to find a locked door that goes to the underground. Investigate the locked door and you’ll get this clue.

Immediately as you do this, you’ll get a mysterious Phone Call. Answer the call and a creepy voice will start talking to you. Pay attention to it as the person on the phone will point you towards the next clue. Almost done!

Investigate this Key and you will be able to get the final clue. You will also obtain the Key and can now return to the Underground Door to finish up the Murder Mystery Quest!

Arrest Suspect

Now that you have all the clues, it’s time to finish what you started. Return to the locked underground door and you can now unlock it with the Key you found.

After unlocking it, enter inside to find a room full of barrels. At the end of the room, you will see the Suspect looking away from you.
