You need to put the cardboard in the pizza box that is in the kitchen.

Put the cardboard on the pizza box in the kitchen (you got it from the bookshelf when you sorted books by color).

The map from the pizza box matches the map on the wall in the study. Remember the order of the red dots on the map (numbers 1-2-3-4-5-6), because you use it for the map in the study.

Click on the points on the map in the order 1-2-3-4-5-6.
The order of clicks corresponds to the points on the map from the pizza box in the kitchen.

A pentagram board will appear. It is the solution to unlocking the safe from the desk drawer in the study. Use the pentagram shape to unlock the safe from the left drawer.
