Inside the room, directly ahead on a bookshelf, you will find a radio. Tune the radio signal by matching the amplitude wave with the frequency wave, adjusting both until they align. It’s recommended to turn on your subtitles, as the message that plays after completing the radio signal puzzle is crucial for opening the safe.

A Russian voice will recite two sentences. Pay attention to certain keywords in these sentences. As you explore the room, you’ll discover various items; using your blacklight, you can uncover hidden numbers on them. Listen carefully to the radio voice and note the keywords.

For example, if the sentence includes words like "chalkboard", "curtain", "rug", and others, move near these items and use the blacklight to reveal the corresponding hidden numbers.

The sentences will contain four keywords that represent items in the room. Once the words are spoken, sequence the numbers in the order of the keywords.
