The end of its reply
Looking at this puzzle, I'll solve it systematically.
**Key deductions:**
- Box 2 (top-middle): Only cells left for {1,2,6,9} → R2C4=1, R2C6=6, and R1C4/R3C5 are {9,2}
- Column 8: R2C8 must be 5 (only option in row 2)
- Box 3: R3C8=4, R2C9=3, R1C7=2, R2C7=8, forcing R3C5=2 and R3C3=1
- Box 4: Only R6C1 can hold 6 → R6C1=6
- Column 5: Only R4C5 can hold 9 → R4C5=9
- Box 5: Only R5C4 can hold 8 → R5C4=8
- Column 4: Only R6C4 can hold 3 → R6C4=3, R4C4=2
- Box 5: Only R6C5 can hold 7 → R6C5=7, R7C5=5
- Column 1: Only R5C1 can hold 2 → R5C1=2
- Box 4: Only R4C2 can hold 7 → R4C2=7
- Column 7: R6C7=5, propagating through remaining cells
The solution fills in completely with all rows, columns, and boxes verified.
