Euler Piruleta Vs. Funnyface's Riddles

Due to your impressive help, the bomb has finally been deactivated. Alas, Euler Piruleta shall be overjoyed and elated. Thousands of “innocent” lives have been saved! But the thing is, when you lead such a reckless life as he does you are never truly safe… and somehow, the evil forces of Funnyface’s mind have teleported Euler into the heart of Galician most terrible nest of Non-living creatures: Pontevedra!!



These non-living creatures are nothing but former humans infected with the tedious TSJ virus, which has been widely spread through the whole region. Euler has only a neoprene suit to protect himself from the bites of such terrible creatures and the possibility of escaping if he manages to solve the two riddles Funnyface has created for him. Try to help him to explain the meaning of these two riddles!

1) “There are 10 kinds of people in the world: those who understand binary code and those who don’t.

2) PREQUEL = SEQUEL - 2
