Agents Andromeda and FitzKaos were on their way to meet a man that had some valuable information stored on a microchip. The rendezvous place was at that person’s apartment.

The door to his apartment was unlocked. When they got in, even though the place was in dark, it was evident that somebody got to the man before they managed to. The apartment was thoroughly searched and the man was lying dead on the ground on his back.

“What now?” Andromeda was worried. “Do you think he’d given them the chip?”

“No idea...” Fitz was reserved in making assumptions. “Let’s just look around before we call it in.”

“Look where? I don’t even know where to start?!” Andromeda was annoyed.

“Well let’s start here” said Fitz as he picked up a paper off the floor.

“This is not the right time to solve crossword puzzles” said Andromeda while Fitz was still looking at the paper ignoring his partner.

“Look!” Fitz pointed at the paper with his flashlight.

“Well... the good news is, the chip is still here! The bad news is one of us has to get it?! So... paper, scissors, rock?” Andromeda asked with a grin.

“I don’t think so” Fitz smiled, “I solved the puzzle you get the chip!”

Where is the chip?

No... you don't need to solve the entire crossword puzzle, in fact you don't need to add a single letter to the puzzle

well

none of the black lines are horizontal or vertical if thats what you mean

Actually the black squares are not important, they are only there so it would look like a crossword puzzle, there's something odd with the letters!

She'd crack it in 10 seconds!

if we eliminate the black squares then would it be the same thing are they just there to destract?

Hmmmm does the fact that all the letters are capitalized deemed important?

[Guest]

There was a mention earlier of folding ?

There is only one line in the puzzle, besides perimeter, that is blank in each direction. Fold ?or overlay of some sort

Too bad she's been canceled <_<

No.

The blank line is not important and ALL of the letters in the puzzle will tell you exactly what to do, but in the end when you do what the letters are showing you, you'll get the one word solution!

Too bad she's been canceled <_<

Yeah... I haven't seen the last season yet because nobody wants to buy it off! Stupid Serbia! <_<

start at Z and spiral out clockwise using the sqauares, you get:

ZJDVUXGOHOQTIXTBWHCPWOMSIEYMAWMIRFLKXH

which means absolutely nothing.

Also, there aren't any letters in the outside ring. I'm sure that tells us something significant, but what?!

[Guest]

hey im new here and after reading your awesome puzzles i decided to try

some letters are near the black boxes... yet some arent

welcome to the den!

(don't mind me rookie... this isn't off topic... )

edit: decided off-topicness isn't worth the risk, so i'll ask

does it have to do with the relationship between black, white and lettered boxes?

Where do the letters tell you to spiral

I don't repeat methodology Nope, the lack of letters in the outside ring tells nothing! HINT - why are some letters repeating and why not next to each other?

The black boxes are not important!

FINALLY! The question I can answer with - yes some of it is important!

Some lettered boxes are in relationship

If thats the case, then

"flex" in there somewhere ? If not, wrong track

[Guest]

thanks

thats how the lets are if u take them out horizontally..

Is this of any importance?

Also, I have to take some letters out right?

wait but if you dont take them out, some of the letters arent need

cant think >.<

[Guest]

Found that..

You take all the letters that are not adjacent to a dark square you get "out my joh" ?

[Guest]

Or Maybe ?

But the letter groups that are adjacent to 0 colored squares, 1 and 2.

[Guest]

cryptogram?

no she said that the black boxes aren't important

[andromeda]

Exactly you don't need all the letters for the final solution, but you need all the letters to "tell" you what to do and how to get to the solution!

Found that..

Mmm...

I already said not to pay attention to black squares

Originally I wanted to leave it blank with letters only, but then I added the black squares to make it look like a crossword puzzle

Or Maybe ?

But the letter groups that are adjacent to 0 colored squares, 1 and 2.

I'm not sure what you exactly mean, but those are not the groups that I need because you don't need to pay attention on the black squares!

cryptogram?

No...

no she said that the black boxes aren't important

Exactly

Somebody already mentioned something that will lead to the solution. My answer was vague because I didn't want to tell you - yes you do it like that and that and then read the solution. I told you to try it out. Nobody did that. I don't know why and I don't know what else to say
