Grandfather Clock Puzzle Solution & Clock Location
11:04 Or 7:00 Is Correct
| Difficulty | Answer |
| ASSISTED STANDARD | 11：04 |

On the 2nd floor, there is a room where Leon is being held captive, while the first room on the 1st floor after obtaining the light contains a Grandfather Clock. You can locate the memo on the desk at the back of the room with the Grandfather Clock on the 2nd floor.
Can It Be Solved Without Reading The Note?
You Can Solve It Without Reading the Note
It can be opened even before checking the note. By unlocking the first Grandfather clock that is located on the first floor, you can proceed on getting the Salazar Family Insignia without finding Leon.
Bunch Of Keys Is Also Located In The Library
To open the Treasures in Chapter 9, you need Ashley to be present in the latter half of the chapter and use the Bunch of Keys obtained on the second floor of the Library. Take note that if ever you unlocked the Grandfather clock on the first floor upon arrival you will be exploring the area without the Bunch of Keys.
