BY THE DETECTIVE! The solution is indeed "Roger stabbed me" Take the strange message and slide diagonally down to the right, and the weird message decoded. << CONGRATULATIONS Ivan !!!! (And also Phil, who forgot to mention the WHY). The official answer is: The detective arrested Roger, the agent. After looking at the paper in the typewriter, the detective realized that the last line on the news column contained the phrase "roger stabbed me". (49t34 w5qgg3e j3) Max had managed to type the message after being stabbed, but had his fingers were positioned one line too high, on the keyboard when he typed his message. Apparently Max had planned to terminate his association with Roger. In a fit of anger, Roger had stabbed him. [log in to unmask]
