The Body Politic
Location #1 - Dining Room
Clue #1 - Man's Body
Examine the man's body to begin the murder mystery.
Clue #2 - Victim's Wine Glass
Check the glass next to the body for clue number 2.
Clue #3 - Statement of Madame Hennenbert
Speak to the grieving widow to find out that the murder wasn't entirely unexpected.
Clue #4 - Statement of Antoine Gerard
Talk to Antoine to add his statement to your file.
Clue #5 - Statement of Madeleine Gerard
You're just networking like a little butterfly in here. Have a chat with Madeleine for another statement.
Clue #6 - Statement of Olivier Gidet
Collect your last statement from Olivier.
Clue #7 - Necklace
The necklace is by the window. All signs currently point to the culprit being a a portly, bespectacled writer in his 60s, rarely seen without a jaunty black cap, but let's just see how this plays out.
Location #2 - Office
The office is upstairs from the dining room.
Clue #1 - Note from Gedet
The note from Gedet is on the desk.
Clue #2 - Feuillant Letter
Check the sofa for the letter.
Location #3 - Kitchen
Nip downstairs from the dining room to find the kitchen.
Clue #1 - Statement of Alicia
Speak to Alicia to get the address for a new location.
Clue #2 - Statement of Armand
This man's willingness to die for a pompous aristocrat who probably pays him a pittance of a salary is just embarrassing. Get his statement and mourn the day Ubisoft took out the ability to give NPCs a good bop around the earhole.
Clue #3 - Note to Alicia
Check the table for the note to Alicia.
Clue #4 - Window Pane
The last clue in the kitchen is the great big bullet hole in the window.
Location #4 - André's House
Clue #1 - Statement of Old Woman
Clue #2 - Bottle
Check the drawers next to the bed to find a mighty suspicious-looking bottle.
Clue #3 - Note for André
Read the note from Alicia for a new location.
Location #5 - Apothecary
Clue #1 - Statement of André
Location #6 - Glassmaker's
Clue #1 - List of Accounts
Check the bench for the list of accounts.
Clue #2 - Statement of the Glassmaker
This guy is pretty tight-lipped, but have a chat with him anyway.
Clue #3 - Glass Bead
Take a look in the corner for the last clue here.
Location #7 - Black Office
To find one of the clues in the Black Office, you technically need to have a lock pick skill of 3, but thanks to the weird and unnecessary restrictions on how the skills unlock, you'll need to complete sequence 9 in its entirety before that's even possible. I went as far as sequence 5, obtained lock pick level 2 and used my mongoose-like reflexes instead, so if you're prepared to persevere, it is possible to just wing it.
Clue #1 - Report
You'll find the report on the desk.
Clue #2 - Note from Chemist
Check the desk by the screen for the note from the chemist.
Clue #3 - Note to Agent
Another note on another desk.
Clue #4 - Agent List
There's a locked chest containing the last clue. It is possible to open it at lock pick level 2, but technically it requires level 3 which only becomes available after you complete sequence 9.
Whodunnit?
The murderer was Antoine Gerard, a.k.a. Black Office agent "Patriot".
To skip to the end without visiting all 7 locations, examine the body at the dining table, then speak to and accuse Gerard.
