Reasoning is a type of thought training where we can think outside box. Looking at the problem below from anew perspective will allow us to solve it. If you use a hypothesis by identifying the core problem and putting all the clues together, you will definitely find the right murderer. Pharos guarantees that the feeling of joy after getting the question right is beyond description. Keep in mind, there is no perfect crime!

 A murder occurred around 8p.m. in Kyonggi Villa. The 119 rescue team got a call from an old woman. “Help me... The killer has yellow hair...” she said, and was cut off. The 119 rescue workers traced the call and were dispatched to the grandmother’s house. However, when they arrived, she had already died. At the scene, the grandmother was lying down and a kitchen knife was stuck in her chest. The grandmother lived in Kyonggi Villa room 302, and she was holding the phone in the living room. Seemingly, blood ran from the living room to the front door. Therefore, the police believe that she went to the living room after she was stabbed near the front door. What the criminal aimed for was the money saved by the grandmother. No one left the villa after the crime. In other words, the criminal is still inside the villa. There are five suspects in Kyonggi Villa with yellow hair, all of whose alibis were not accurate.

Alibi No.1 Kim△△

She lives in apartment 101. She works in the same department as the murdered grandmother. She claims to have been taking a bath at home at the time of the incident.

Alibi No.2 Park□□

He lives in 201 and is a nephew of the grandmother. He claims that he knew that his aunt had money and says he was sleeping at the time the incident took place.

Alibi No.3 Choi◎◎

She was closest to the grandmother and lives in 202, but after a serious argument about money a few days ago, their relationship fell apart. She claims that she was dying her hair yellow at home at the time of the incident.

Alibi No.4 Han☆☆

He came to visit apartment 401 on the morning of the incident. He is related to the tenant of apartment 401 and he is a total stranger to the grandmother. He claimed that he was watching television in the living room at the time the incident took place.

Alibi No.5 Yoon▽▽

As a security guard for the villa, he claims to have been in the bathroom inside the security office at the time of the incident.

 Only one of these five suspects is the real murderer! Who could it be?

 Did you find the answer? If you don’t know who the killer is, don’t forget that she saw the murderer’s face and was close to the people of the Villa! Let’s improve our English through more reasoning questions.
