Slaying a Dragon
Objective: Assassinate Red Dragon negotiator. Blue Lotus negotiator must survive. Escape the area.
Check the map and note the point of interest just south of your start position. It’s a sewer entrance. Move to the entrance and descend the ladder into the tunnel. Pick up the rat poison inside the tunnel. Climb out.
Make your way to the eastern side of the map. You can run; the civilians won’t be alerted to your quick pace. Move to the building in the middle of the eastern side of the map. You can see its entrance on the left side of the building. Enter and ascend the staircase to the fifth floor. Pick the lock on the door to the right of the floor entrance. Search the room for the gardener’s clothes. Change your outfit. Drop all of your firearms.
There’s an alternate way to get gardener’s clothes. When the level begins, the real gardener is walking along the road south of your start position. Run and catch him and use the syringe to disable him. Steal his clothes and continue the level!
Descend out of the apartment building and cross the street toward the map’s center. You’ll spot two guards ahead. Approach the guards and be frisked. With no weapons in your inventory, you’re safe to pass into the central area.
Walk to the center gazebo. The Red Dragon and Blue Lotus negotiators conduct their business here. Take note of their pattern. The two walk together around the gazebo. At some point, the Blue Lotus negotiator moves away and speaks with a guard. Meanwhile the Red Dragon negotiator continues to move around to the tea. There are a couple ways of dealing with the Red Dragon negotiator here.
You can’t poison the tea with the rat poison while the nearby guard is watching (you can check the map and see he’s facing the tea). If you run around the guard you can cause him to look away then wait for the negotiators to move away from the tea then administer the poison.
Alternatively, wait for the two negotiators to end their talk. The Blue Lotus negotiator moves away. When he’s out of sight, sneak behind the Red Dragon negotiator and eliminate him with your fiber wire. Drag his body out of the gazebo.
After completing the hit, calmly walk out of the center area and to an exit to complete the level.
