The Meteorite in Case 7
The Natural History Museum, the night of the annual inventory. Case 7 in the mineral room had held since 1908 a fist-sized fragment of meteorite, the piece that appears in every leaflet. At two in the morning the case was found open, with no glass broken and without the alarm ever sounding. Every room opens off the central corridor, and tonight only seven people held a key to the building.
Exactly 2 of the 7 are lying

The security post is where I was. What Hermione is telling you is the truth. What Cyprian is telling you is a lie.
♀Verity
Head restorer
The central corridor is where I was. Cyprian — I saw him in the entrance hall, and I stand by it. Hermione is telling the truth.
♀Sanctity

Me? I was in the restoration workshop. I was side by side with Verity.

I never left the security post. Hermione is telling the truth, and I stand by that.

Me? I was in the entrance hall. Verity is not lying.

I was in the fossil room. I saw Verity in the central corridor.

The fossil room is where I was. Evarist was in the central corridor, for certain. We were 3 in my room, not one more.
