In a dimly lit room, your eyes adjust to the sparse furnishings: a solitary chair, a table, and an array of manila folders strewn about. Intrigued, you settle into the chair and begin sifting through the folders, your curiosity piqued. Amidst the sea of beige, one folder stands out, its cover adorned with a stark red "redacted" stamp and labeled "The Lost Files."
You can't resist the urge to peek inside, expecting swathes of censored information. However, as you delve deeper, you realize that many of the files aren't as obscured as anticipated. Some bear only sporadic blacked-out sections, while others are nearly entirely concealed. Closing the folder, you survey the room, noting that the rest of the folders lie empty, each adorned with a unique label. It's an enigma waiting to be unraveled, with the mystery only deepening as you notice a lone sticky note, its hastily scrawled message hinting at hidden truths:
"The key lies within these files. Identify them, and secrets will reveal themselves in due time..."
With no means to discern the passage of time, you ponder the cryptic message and the folders before you. After a moment, the path forward becomes clear – to unravel the mystery, you must match files to their corresponding folders, unlocking the secrets within.
