01 A gentle nudge
The file spans three disks, but one needs repairing before the archive can be read. The repair software is in another building.
02 Show the specific clue
Use the Disk Case Key in both South Brae and Atlas Computers. Start Fix-A-Disk, then swap to disk 2 without cancelling the scan screen.
03 Reveal the answer & full solution
THE ANSWER
Repair disk 2 → load 1, 2, 3 → safe 956
Step-by-step solution
- At the CEG Employee Lockers, read the office computer and open Lost and Found with 772. Take the South Brae House Key.
- Enter 5 South Brae. Get the Disk Case Key from the upstairs bedroom drawer and use it on the case beside the computer safe.
- Use the same key on the container in the side room at Atlas Computers to collect Fix-A-Disk.
- Run Fix-A-Disk at the South Brae computer. When asked to insert a disk to scan, remove the software disk without selecting Cancel and insert disk 2 of 3. Choose Repair Volume.
- Remove disk 2. Insert disk 1 and choose Unzip to RAM, then supply disks 2 and 3 in order.
- Switch on the printer, print MANUAL.EML, and collect the document. Enter 956 on the nearby safe and collect the Locker 17 barcode.
- Return to the CEG scanner and scan the South Brae barcode. Open Locker 17 with PIN 575, then collect the Boltcutters and Mechanical Part.
Still stuck?
If the document does not print, turn on the physical printer as well as the computer. At CEG, scan the barcode before opening the employee locker; its PIN is different from the house safe code.
