All stories in this puzzle are fictions; the puzzle was made by myself.

My friend left me a puzzle. He gave me 5 papers, each had some information on it.

He asked me what is the password; oh my, is it even possible to work out? But it seemed he's quite sure that it can be found, only using the information on the papers, and the Internet. "Even the end of Internet is useful," he said, "so what is the password?"

Bonus Answer the question in #5 - who is it?

  • $\begingroup$ To someone who has seen a lot of text encoding mistakes, #4 looks broken. Would you mind posting the hex that we're supposed to get by "converting it to hex"? $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 25, 2023 at 17:38
