His name is Maxwell.
The very same Maxwell who wrote Maxwell's Equations, laying the foundation for the modern electromagnetic field theory, without whom there might not even be mobile phones, and whose personal ethics are considered exemplary, the ultimate boss.
Late 19th century.
When Maxwell was invited to establish the Cavendish Laboratory, he personally discovered twenty bundles of mysterious manuscripts in a box left by Cavendish.
Of course.
Some people later added a mysterious touch by describing the box as if it was a puzzle box that required solving certain problems to open.
For decades after Cavendish's death, only Maxwell could solve this mystery.
However, it's a pity.
Maxwell's method of opening it wasn't so mystical; he just used some physical means:
He broke the lock with an axe.
These manuscripts are currently housed in Room 6 of the Percival David Collection at the British Museum, and years ago, the Louvre even argued over it with the British Museum.
