The corridor with two doors

Entering the room was only half the problem. Whoever took the medal also had to leave.

4 min100 points

The exhibition occupies a shelter beneath the botanical garden. During the opening toast, a copper medal disappears from its central room.

Three assistants left the foyer and returned before the discovery. The shelter has a one-way route and doors with different access permissions.

What we know for certain

One of the three people entered, took the medal and left with it, without accomplices. They could not pass it through a closed door. There were no faults, alternative entrances, borrowed cards or doors held open.

«The yellow card opens the exit to the foyer.»

Opening these five clues does not cost points.

01The route

The north door is the only entrance to the room. Its turnstile allows entry from the foyer but prevents anyone turning back.

02The exit

The south door is the only exit to the foyer. Its turnstile prevents entry from outside.

03The access list

Throughout the theft interval, north accepted blue or green cards; south accepted blue or yellow cards. Each door required a valid card, even from the inside.

04Before the toast

The guard checked that the room was empty and the medal present. All three people were together in the foyer at that point.

05Everyone back

Before the theft was discovered, a photograph shows all three in the foyer with their only card: Ana blue, Biel green, Carla yellow.
