10 Hot Brain Racking Riddles.*Updated by Brainiacbbb(m): 7:12pm On Aug 08, 2015
#1 .Sherlock is called upon on a crime
scene. A woman has been killed and
there are only three suspects to the
murder, the three people who were
present on the scene.
Alice, the best friend of the woman
who was present for a night out.
Debra, who was accompanying Alice.
Sia, who is the house maid.
A note is found in the hands of the
victim, which reads:
'Second of January, Third of July,
Fourth of April, Second of October,
Fourth of December'
The note was all Sherlock needed to
find out who was the killer. Can you
find the killer too ?



#2 .Miranda is murdered at her house in
New Dehli, India on 26-01-1989. The
police analyzes the case and narrows
down to three suspects. The three
suspects give the following statements:
Divya: I was not in the state when the
murder happened.
Remya: I was ill and doctor had
suggested bed rest. I was on my bed at
the time of murder.
Soumya: I had to deposit my house tax
and I was in the municipality office at
the time of murder.
Who do you think is the murderer
among the three?



#3. Xack 'The Knife,' the ill-famed tough
guy, was found murdered on a
particular night in a pathway behind
the discotheque he frequently visited.
The police brought in three suspects on
the next morning. A detective was
called who interrogated the three men
and noted down the following
statements given by the suspects.
Richard:
1. I did not kill Xack.
2. Morgan is not my friend.
3. I knew Xack.
Morgan:
1. I did not kill Xack.
2. Richard and Travis are friends of
mine.
3. Richard did not kill Xack.
Travis:
1. I did not kill Xack.
2. Richard lied when he said that
Morgan was not his friend.
3. I do not know who killed Xack.
One of them has actually killed Xack
'the knife'. Can you find out who is the
Killer?



#4 .Block Prevents the target player from
acting
Redirect Change target player's target.
Save Protects the target player from
death.
Seer Sees all actions that occurred
Murderer Kills the target player
Following five players are playing:
Christopher
Danny
Garry
Harry
Jack
As the Seer Christopher you saw the
following happenings:
1) Danny was redirected to Garry.
2) Garry was blocked.
3) Harry was killed.
Can you tell who the murderer is?



#5 .In a hotel, a man was sleeping when he
heard a knock on the door. He shifted
the blanket and stepped down from the
bed. He waked to the door and opened
it to find a stranger standing outside.
Upon opening the gate, that stranger
said, "Pardon me, I must have made a
mistake. I thought this was my room."
The stranger then walked the corridor
and climbed down the stairs. The man
closed the door and immediately called
the security. He asked them to arrest
that stranger immediately.
Why did he asked them to arrest that
stranger? What made him suspicious?





#6 .Once upon a time, Emperor Akbar was
the ruler of India. In his court, he had
the much talked about Nine Gems out
of which, one was Birbal, particularly
known for his quick wit and
intelligence.
The word of mouth spread faster than a
fire in the forest and a distant king felt
the eagerness to meet Birbal. He sent
an invitation for Birbal to come and
visit his country.
When Birbal arrived to his kingdom, he
was welcomed and was escorted to the
palace. Inside the palace, he found out
that there were six kings sitting in
front of him. Each of them were a
lookalike with same robes.
But who was the king? He got his
answer very soon and then approached
him to bow in front of him.
How did Birbal find out who the real
king was?



#7 .A homicide detective is called at a
crime scene. A man is lying dead in
front of the building and seeking the
position of the windows on the
building and the position in which the
body is lying, it is evident that the man
jumped out from one of them and
committed suicide.
The detective asks his team to collect
the traces if they can find any on the
body and heads towards the building.
He goes to the first floor and towards
the room that is on the front side.
Inside the room, he lights a cigarette,
walks towards the window facing the
dead body, opens the window and
throws out the cigarette. He then goes
to the second floor and repeats the
same process.
He keeps doing the same thing till he is
done with all the floors and then takes
the lift to the ground floor. Upon
reaching there, he informs the team
that it is not a suicide but a murder.
While the whole team is shocked to
hear the revelation, he lights another
cigarette and takes a hard puff.
How do you think he found out that it
was a not a suicide?






#8. A Japanese ship was making its way
through the Arabian Sea. The captain
felt like taking a bath and thus went to
the bathroom after removing his Rolex
watch and gold bracelet. When he
returned back from the bathroom, he
found out that his valuables were
missing.
He suspected five of his crew members.
He called them in and asked all of them
what they were doing for the last 15
minutes. They replied as
follows:parachute
The French cook (with a butcher
knife): I was in fridge room getting
meat for cooking.
The German Engineer (with some tools
in hand): I was working on the
generator engine.
The Bangladeshi seaman (empty
handed): I was on the mast correcting
the flag which was upside down by
mistake.
The American Radio officer (with his
headphones in hand): I was messaging
to company that we will reach the port
in the next two days that is Friday
morning at 1100 hrs.
The Indian navigation officer (empty
handed): I was taking a nap before my
night watch began.
Upon hearing all of them, the captain
found out who was the thief. How did
he know that? Who is the thief?





#9. A woman is approaching a green land
with no trees in vicinity. Now, she has
a package with her which must be
opened before reaching the green land.
If somehow, she fails, she will die.
What is there in the package that must
be opened?





#10. A couple went to river rafting on a hill
station. Two days after their departure,
the husband returned alone. He
informed the police that her wife was
swept away by the waves and died.
On the next day, police arrived to his
doorstep and when he opened the door,
they arrested him for murdering his
wife. They told him that his travel
agent had called them.
He was shocked. How did the travel
agent know about the murder? Can you
suggest how did he know ?

1. Alice. 2. Remya. 3. Morgan 5. He knocked, if he had the key, he wouldn't knock. 6. Birbal; his quick wit and intelligence helped him.

7. When he got to each room, the windows facing the dead body was closed, someone was in the room with him. 8. The Indian navigation officer ( he needed the watch to check the time)

9. Parachute.

10. The travel agent knew because the husband booked 2 departure ticket and just 1 return ticket.
