Ah, the pinnacle of the Malaysian levels is ahead of you, so you can
start looking forward to one which is considered by many to be almost the
best in the game. It's almost a shame that it's so short a level
(10 minutes is a long time to take over this level!), but it does let you
assassinate yet another unlucky fellow whilst indulging in the rituals of
cleaning. At least we don't get an eyeful of a pair of Speedos this time.
So, on to the "bonus" mission - time to kill the twin.
The only similarity between this guy and his sibling are his looks. He's
an extremely rich playboy with a taste for, shall we say, less salubrious
but extremely expensive women (who also happen to like guns). And to
match his tastes, the client wants a little bit of a special job done on
him. You are to make this look like a burglary gone wrong - not only
must you kill him, but you must also empty his safe and steal a valuable statue.
All in a nights work!
Load-Out
You probably picked up the nightvision and silenced 9mm from the lockers
in the previous level - both are extremely helpful in knocking of the twin.
But more likely, you already had the 9mm SD in the first place, and in case
you forgot it, nightvision is conveniently laying around as coffee table decor.
Walkthrough
Now this is a pad! Tall windows, classy wall decorations, a grand piano,
and an absolute mass of security. Check your map - there is only one
civilian on the map (of a maximum potential of two). You start on a thin
ledge at the southwestern most side of the apartment. Your target is
directly to your left, but don't bother trying to shoot him. The only
bullet proof glass in the level is surrounding that room, so it would
most likely be a bit of a waste in time. Instead, crouch down and make
your way along the edge (you can hope across, but I prefer the timing
this way), round the first balcony, and round the window with the piano.
When you approach the next (central) balcony, check your map. There
should be no guards nearby. Approach the barrier, and climb over it.
Hide behind the western doors (south side) in sneak mode, and wait.
Check your map. The guard who patrols the eastern side of the map arrives
on the balcony through these doors, and immediately heads for the eastern
doors. When he arrives, give him a second to start towards the doors,
and then pop a bullet in the back of his head. Drag his body into the
northern corner of the balcony, and take his clothes.
Now you have a disguise, check that no guards are nearby, and enter
through the eastern doors. To your right, in the lower section, is a
table with some night vision goggles. Pick these up, then return to the
center of the room, go up the stairs, and head east again, towards the
double doors at the end.
Note the statue behind some lasers to your left.
When you go through the doors, you will find yourself on the eastern most
of the balconies with some doors to the north. Enter here and take a
look at the room. When you are ready, walk north, over to the set of doors
on the western wall. Head through, then straight through the door opposite.
You are now in the fuse room.
[Save Game]
Typical millionaires - they spend all their money on beauty and forget
the practicalities. 47 can bust the fuse box in here with no problems.
When the lights go out, put on those annoying nightvision goggles and head
back to the previous room, open the safe (this takes a moment), and remove
the money. Close up, and then leave by the southern doors, back to the
balcony. Head west back into the main room, and pick up the statue, then
retrace your steps to the "safe" room. Wait here for the technician to
arrive and follow him into the fuse room. He quickly repairs the fuse.
Wait for him to leave on the lift and then kill the lights again.
[Save Game]
You should now head along the northern corridor, avoiding any guards,
until you reach the Jacuzzi room. Hopefully, the young ladies will still
be sitting by the Jacuzzi. Crouch down, and edge left until you can see
Charlie's head. Wait until the technician arrives, pop a bullet in the
target's head, and run back to the lift. If the ladies have been here for
a while, you can wait behind the screen opposite the door (in sneak mode)
until they leave, then slit the target's throat, heading immediately
(and quietly) for the exit point. Mission complete!
