"?") in this configuration of a normal chess game?
BLACK

WHITE
Notice that the Black King is in check by the White Rook.

Oh, one more thing.
5) It can't be a black bishop, because it has no way to move from its original starting square of f8, since it is blocked by two pawns.
So, the questionable piece is white. It still looks like it could be a white rook, queen, bishop, or knight.
