When you’re investigating Shiro’s penthouse apartment, you’ll discover a keypad on a closet, and as Logan says, “who the hell puts a keypad on a closet?” It’s a good question, but it means you need to suss out the correct code. While Logan’s heightened senses have been useful for other keypads, the code here has recently been changed, which means that seven of the 10 digits have fingerprints on them.

As a result, you need to find a clue for the keypad. There are quite a few things to interact with around the apartment, including a medical billing invoice which has numbers on, but the thing you’re looking for is the series of manga on the bookshelf.

The second series, with the black spines and white writing, is in a seemingly random order, and four books in the middle are protruding slightly from the rest.

These are volumes 1, 9, 2, and 4, which is the code for the keypad. Turn around and enter that code to reveal a secret room behind the closet. Head in there to continue, and figure out exactly what Shiro’s deal is.
