A light bulb went off in Luke's head. Slender Man hadn't been after him. He'd been after Miss Reinhold.

He had a flashback to finding the first note.

Luke crept slowly towards the bath, quickly pulled out the plug, and ran back to the other side of the room. He noticed something sticking to the side of the bath, on the outside so it wasn't wet. He edged closer, and pulled the piece of paper of the bath. He froze. On the piece of paper, was a children's drawing of the man. And words, scrawled in hurry above it. "No eyes: sees everything,"

Of course. Luke wasn't meant to notice it. Miss Reinhold went in afterwards and cleaned the back. She was meant to see it.

What about the second note?

It had been stuck on Mr. Layton's back.

Luke glanced up, and for the first time, noticed that his window looked out on the woods. Mr. Layton seemed too noticed too, and he got up and closed the curtains. Luke felt a lump in his throat, and whispered, "Don't go, Mr. Layton," "Nah lad," Mr. Layton shook his head, "Nah I won't," Mr. Layton turned briefly, looking at the wall, and Luke saw something on his back. A note.

He suddenly realised that at night, once Luke was in bed, the maids and other staff sometimes gathered in the sitting room, played a couple of card games or something like that. Mr. Layton should have seen Miss. Reinhold, and she would notice, but he went in to sit with Luke.

The third one was easy, Miss. Reinhold had found it and given it too him. And the fourth one was in Miss Reinhold's shopping bag.

And the last ones were in her drawer, which meant she had already found them.

Which also mean, Slender Man had taken her.
