George - Gallery, Henri's Apartment, Vera Security | Paris Broken Sword: TSC Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
The Gallery has been closed, Laine is nowhere to be found, so make your way to the nearby café and talk to the owner. Show him the photo and ask about Laine. It turns out Laine had gone to visit Henri's Widow. Call Nico to tell her how your investigation id going, then leave the café and head to Henri's Apartment. This time when you use the intercom, Laine will answer. Blackmail him to have him let you inside.
Laine won't be eager to cooperate, though. Show him the photo then (Photograph of Ariette and Laine) - suddenly he'll be a little more talkative. Ask him the same questions again. When you give him the compromising photo, he'll agree to leave the apartment. Now you have the space to talk to Bijou's widow.
Look around the apartment. Examine: the paintings on the wall, the Coffin, the Stuffed Dog on the shelf left of the coffin. Notice the Dressing Table opposite the widow. She won't let you get near it, though - same as to the Music Box left of the dressing table. Leave the apartment, then, and head to Vera Security. When you get there, it will be after dark, so you'll need to find a way into the closed office.
Try to lift the Shutter, but it won't budge. Take a look at the Girder above you. It's too high, you won't reach it. Notice that the spot previously occupied by the stall now has a wheeled container. Click on it to move it up the screen. Now, click on the girder again, and George will climb the container, grab the girder and move left.
Notice the Electrical Box nearby
Click on the box to view the close-up. Your goal is to lift the shutter.
First, cut the power (Switch) - below the "Electric shock risk" caption
Using the Nail Clippers, cut the three Wires. Afterwards, use the piece of wire you have in your pocket to connect Power Supply with Shutter Motor. Once you do, press the Switch. This will lift the shutters. Jump down - you'll receive another achievement, "Roll'em Up". You're free to enter the empty office.
In the Drawer, you'll find a Q-Tip. Open the back door. It's too dark, so use the matches from the matchbox to light the room for a while. This will allow you to locate the Light Switch. Once the lights are on, take a look at the Shredder. Press the green button. Unfortunately, the machine is stuck.
When you click on the paper, you'll see a partially shredded letter. Take the Lid off, then click on the Gears. You need to grease them somehow. Luckily, on the floor next to the scooter, is a Patch of Oil. Dip the Q-Tip in it and smear the oil on the shredder's mechanism. Turn it on. Now you need to rearrange the mismatched pieces of the letter.
Pick up the Paper Clip - top right corner of the screen. The rearranged letter needs to look like this:
Take the Shredder Letter with you. Click on the Air Vent and use the Paper Clip on it. The grate will fall on the floor. Inside, you'll find a pistol. At the same time, you will be detained by Inspector Navet.
