CLUE

29. BRAINSTORM

2 hours before the competition.

The nerves were getting to Sid and Vaishnavi. It was the competition for which they practiced so hard for.
On the other hand, Brett and Eddy were anxiously waiting for the next 2 codings which they have to get it right on point.

"Sid, Vaishnavi go get some rest and clear you mind. You need to stay focused for the competition." Bella said.
"Lingling would be proud of you two." Eddy said.
Vaishnavi laughed a bit.
"Yeah. Lingling would definitely be proud of you. Thank you so much for your help!" Brett said.
"Anything for you guys!" Vaishnavi said.
"No problem!" Sid said.
"And the rest two codings?" Vaishnavi questioned.
"We'll manage." Bella said.
"Yeah!" Brett and Eddy said.

Ping
The system notified. Another message was showcased on the screen.

Solve this code and I'll give you a hint for the finale.

01000010
01000101
01001100

"Finale?" Eddy whispered.
Brett was also confused.
"Got another code?" Sid asked.
"No no. It's just some random notification." Brett lied.
"Oh ok." Vaishnavi said.
"Yeah."
"All the best!" Eddy and Brett said.
"Thank you so much!" Sid and Vaishnavi exclaimed.

After that, Brett and Eddy tried to decode themselves.
"We're so close to finally finish this riddle, Brett." Eddy said.
"I know. But one thing concerns me."
"What is that?"
"Finale. What does this mean?"
"I don't know. But whatever it is, we'll figure it out."
"Of course, Eddy."
The two got down to business in solving this mystery.

"I have a bad feeling about where this coding is going." Bella said.
"How?" Eddy asked.
"Remember when we got the first code it was 11 codes and now its just 2 or 3. Why would Vacy made the code easy rather than make it hard?"
"Point." Brett said.
"And this is making a name- Menkov Ru, till now." Eddy said.
"Yeah." Bella said.

Brett scrolled to find the sheet list Sid sent him.
"Ok. First one is B."
Eddy typed the letter 'B'.
"The next one is is E."
Eddy typed again.
"And the last one is L" Brett said.
Eddy typed the letter L. He entered the submit button.

Again, green tick marks. Brett and Eddy sighed in relief. But it gave them a worry.

"This is not right." Eddy said.
"I feel the same." Brett said.
"If the coding is getting easy-"
"Then the finale is a brainstorm."
