This is an uncompleted guide for what I figure out so far. It would be very nice if anyone can help me finish this guide. And plese point out if you notice I’m wrong, thank you!
Note
- Remember to try talk all available topic to all of the character you meet and explore the place as much as you can. I only mark the improtant part.
- There are also combine clue that lead you to the wrong reasoning. But if you aim for the achievemnt then you still have to go for them anyw. I only mark the improtant clue which can use to question and combine to the right clue.
- If you find it annoying to check which line to mark, just mark them all, then in combine mode, use button next to combine button to find out which line is clue and which is not. But there also necessary lines that NOT clue.
- When you go back to the tavern, if the mirror have a speech balloon “…” it mean you should talk to it about the “words”.
- Money trick: You can buy Hong’s (Hangchau, Black Market) or Kiuh’s (Nanking, Teashop) stuff and sell with higher price at Pawn shop (Hangchau) or Maoba at General Store (Nanking). You need to got 20 taels before go to Nanking for Filthy Rich achievement. You’ll unlock Workaholic achievemnt when you get 30 taels.
- Take note in your calendar 15 times FROM OR AFTER Aug 15 to get Contemporary literatus achievement. If you take note before that day it won’t count.

This part extremely tricky, as everyone except Peh Jun all have motive to kill Liang Wu-kiueh. But the game also give you enough hint to find out the real murder. It was the table that need TWO people to spin, and someone go in halfway.
