Shanghaied: Chinatown Scuffle

You have to head to Chinatown next to meet Sitara’s informant. After talking to him, you’ll have to break in a restricted Aunti Shu gang compound nearby. There are multiple entry points to the compound with a good share of armed gang members. One good entry point is through the back alley, by the building with a pagoda. There’s a ladder nearby that you can use to climb up the rooftops and deploy your drones while hiding there. There’s also a sniper on the roof of the main building so make sure to scout all enemies outside using your quadcopter and to tag them as well. Your objective is to open the safe behind a portrait in the main building’s office and retrieve the document inside. This can be done by Marcus himself or using the jumper.

There are a couple of hackable objects in the main alley and the back alley that can cause massive lethal explosions so you can rig them up if you want to permanently lessen the number of hostiles in the area. Like before, maintaining complete anonymity will make the mission a whole lot easier, even if you’re just sitting in the sidewalk at the edge of the hostile area.

In this walkthrough, we’ll be clearing out everyone using only the explosive/ ESD drop capability of the drones. The main door is locked by a CCT but that’s only optional since you can enter the target building through the garage. Activate the proximity triggers of the gas pipe and gas tank in the main alley. Fly around with your quadcopter and drop more IED/ESDs by the garage door entrance and the main door. Now you can deliberately detonate one of your proximity traps to get their attention or if you have ESDs deployed instead, move in the compound when the gang members outside are taken care of. One good hiding space is through the narrow alley beside the garage. You can climb over the fence and hide there. Conveniently, there’s a vent there where you can deploy the jumper.

Once inside the garage, look for another vent beside the access door, near the lockers. This will lead you to the stairs that will bring you to the second floor. The CCT nearby is optional since it is only connected to the main door so there’s no need to interact with it. Just be careful with the guards in the second floor. If you’re using the jumper, move behind cover and lure enemies to your traps by pressing R2. When the coast is clear, move to the office, interact with the painting in the middle wall and open the safe to retrieve the document. After retrieving the document, leave the restricted area and the mission area to complete the mission.
