Whodunnit Daily — Answer for June 22, 2026
Today's case: The Stolen Sketch. The architect's blueprint went missing before the bid. 3 interns had seen the drawer. A hint first, then the culprit and the full reasoning. Tap the blacked-out box to reveal.
The statements
- Milo: “It was Ben.”
- Ben: “It was Pia.”
- Pia: “It was Ben.”
Hint
Two people point the same way. If they're right, the accused is the one who must be lying — which is exactly what the guilty one does.
The culprit
Guilty: Ben
Why (step by step)
Put Ben in the guilty seat and check each suspect in turn. Milo said “It was Ben.” — that holds up, and an innocent person tells the truth — consistent. Ben said “It was Pia.” — a lie, and since just one person lies, the guilt lands here. Pia said “It was Ben.” — that holds up, and an innocent person tells the truth — consistent. Try the same walk-through with any other suspect guilty and a contradiction appears immediately. Only Ben survives every check — the puzzle has exactly one answer.
