The Hidden Confession
Cryptography
In Cryptography teasers, a phrase or expressions has been encoded in some way (frequently by replacing letters with other letters). You need to figure out the encoding method and then decode the message to find the answer.Cryptography
When Sid Bone was murdered, in a rather compromising position, Inspector Twiggit suspected Sid's wife, Nora. Nora however, steadfastly maintained that on the evening of the murder, she was in a restaurant with a man friend. Twiggit had found an entry in Nora's diary for that evening which, apparently, confirmed her alibi as follows : TIPS THE BRUSHED CHEFS. However, Twiggit realized that the message was coded, and that each letter could be moved either one place forwards or one place backwards in the alphabet to reveal a startling confession. What was the hidden confession?
Answer
The hidden message was SHOT SID ASTRIDE BIDET.Hide Answer Show Answer
