Young Lady: Cardia

You enter Alternate London and make your way to the train station.  After the long train ride to Wales, you enter a dense forest and search for a mansion, hidden far away from any other building or house.  As the night progresses, the mansion finally comes into view and you make your way to the front door.



When you call out to your client, there is no response.  Then, you try the doorknob and find it turn in your grasp.  You open the door and enter the mansion.  The building seems to be in bad shape, as there are spider webs and dust strewn all over the place.  The mansion is shrouded in darkness, save for the moonlight peeking in through the window panes and through the holes in the ceiling.



As you make your way down the hall, the moonlight shines the brightest on a particular door in the deepest part of the mansion.  This is the room you must enter.



After knocking on the door and hearing no response, you slowly push open the creaking door and find yourself in a room filled with toys.  There are many stuffed animals and dolls spread out all over, surrounding a chair in the center of the room.  On the chair sits a young lady, sleeping peacefully with her head tucked into her knees.



You make your way to the center of the room and clear your throat.  This finally gets a reaction out from her, and she lifts her face to glance at you with her large blue-green eyes.  She blinks sleepily and quietly says: 



"Are you my agent?  The person I've been waiting for?  I'm sorry I fell asleep and couldn't welcome you properly.  I've been waiting for your help to leave this place, and head for Alternate London.  Can you help me plan my journey there?  Oh, and I forgot to mention my name.  I'm called Cardia.  I'm pleased to make your acquaintance."

After listening to Cardia's story, you find out the following information:

Cardia plans to set off on a journey to Alternate London.  She has been saving money, little by little, to support her travel expenses and living expenses.  Cardia has saved $2,947 total.  She will spend $32 each day for her travel and living expenses.  How many days will Cardia's savings last?

Mysterious Detective: Herlock

You enter Alternate London and walk along the river.  The air around you is a bit foggy, and the temperature is nice and cool, but not cold.  The people you pass by are dressed in European clothing, and the ladies are holding parasols while they are accompanied for a walk by gentlemen.



By the time the sun starts to set, you reach the harbor.  The train station is still some distance away.  You take a little break to look at the buildings across the river, tinged with hues of orange and yellow from the setting sun.  After a little while, you set off for the train station and wait for the train bound for Wales.


When you board the train, night has already fallen. As you attempt to look out the window, you find it difficult because light from within the train bounces off the glass panes to reflect the inside of the train car. Then, you look for your seat number and find a gentlemen seated across from you, gazing at you expectantly.


Your client smiles at you and introduces himself:


"Good evening, young agent.  You arrived right on time.  I am London's greatest detective, Herlock.  I am trying to solve a major case that is happening all over Europe, with the next destination being Wales.  However, I am troubled by a few numbers and calculations I cannot get quite right.  That is where you come in!  You will be my great assistant for today."

Herlock describes the case he is currently working on, and you find out the following information:

Herlock is chasing after the thief, Lupin, who has stolen 1,946 treasures from all over Europe.  Lupin hides the treasure he steals in many different locations, and can fit 37 in each place, as seen with one of Lupin's hideouts discovered in Wales.  How many hideouts does Lupin currently have, if each location can fill up to 37 treasures?  

Young Vampire: Dracula

You enter Alternate London and night has fallen by the time you reach your destination, a large mansion deep within the city.  You walk up to the gates, which mysteriously open when you are about to ring the doorbell.


You walk through the gates on a gravel pathway and head towards the front door.  As you ascend the stairs, you look up to see the large wooden doors open on their own, as expected based on what happened with the gates.


After passing through the front doors, you enter a spacious and dimly lit parlor.  The parlor is surprisingly very clean, with not a speck of dust to be seen.


There are paintings mounted all over the walls.  Suddenly, the front doors behind you shut with a slam, causing you to turn and look.  As a slight breeze rustles a few strands of your hair, you face the parlor again and your gaze falls upon a young vampire, who seemingly appeared out of nowhere.  



The vampire clears his throat quite loudly and arrogantly proclaims:

"My name is Dracula, and I am the great ruler of the vampire race.   You, human, are here to serve me from the GOM.  I command you to solve my problem for me, because I haven't been able to do so, and I demand the answer to be presented to me as soon as possible."

Dracula tries to intimidate you with his speech, but you know that he is just a young boy with a heavy weight to bear on his shoulders, and willingly take up his case.  After listening to his explanation, you find out the following:

Dracula's birthday is coming up, and all 2,519 vampires he rules over will be attending his party.  For the banquet, he will be setting up tables in the humongous garden.  Each table can fit 27 vampires.  How many tables will he need to set up so that all of his guests will be seated?

The waitress immediately greets you in a sweet, melodious voice:

"Hi there!  My name is Leah, and you must be my agent!  There has been a problem bothering me for the past few days, and I finally decided to make a call to the GOM to request some help.  Can you please help me?"

After you call out to the young chef, he turns around and spots you.  However, his hands do not stop moving and continue to work on making sweets.  He greets you in a calm manner and says:

"Hi, I'm Orion, the head chef of the Sweets World Café.  I made a request for the help of an agent from the GOM.  I'm guessing that's you, right?  Please help me solve this problem of mine."

As you listen to Orion, you find out the following:
