Guilty Parties Walkthrough
This Ryujin Industries assignment commences once you’ve finished the Background Checks phase.
To locate Imogene, proceed to her office on the Operations Floor of Ryujin Industries HQ. If Imogene is not present, engage in a conversation with Yuko Serrano instead.
Yuko Serrano will direct you to the Seokguh Syndicate Hideout but suggests talking to Dalton first. You’ll find Dalton in the same location as before, on the Executive Floor.
Engaging in a conversation with Dalton introduces an additional optional task: speaking with Benjamin Bayu. You can find Bayu in the Astral Lounge within the Trade Tower, situated on the opposite side of Neon Core (refer to the provided picture).
Tip: Although you can skip the dialogue with Dalton without severe consequences, it is advisable to converse with Bayu before heading to the Syndicate Hideout. Failing to do so will not only make the Syndicate hostile but will also lock a security door, preventing your access to Imogene.
Enter the Astral Lounge and utilize the left elevator to reach the VIP Balcony. Go left once more, continuing until you spot Bayu in one of the booths. Your response to his inquiry regarding your purpose for entering the Seokguh Syndicate Hideout will influence your subsequent actions. If you don’t mind a spoiler, we strongly recommend choosing the second option, as it will significantly ease your playthrough.
Regardless of your chosen course, your next destination is Frankie’s Grab & Go. It’s located in Ebbside, on your left after exiting the Trade Tower. After reaching the shop, continue forward and look to your left to locate the store.
If you’ve secured Bayu’s protection, you’ll receive a new optional task: converse with Franchesca, the owner. Mention your affiliation with Ryujin, and she’ll furnish you with the key to the Hideout’s door, which is on your left. Enter through the door, and you can move the cabinet to access it – the Syndicate members won’t engage you.
If you did not acquire Bayu’s protection, you’ll need to find an alternative entry. You have two choices: pickpocket Frankie to obtain the key or exit the shop, turn right twice, ascend the stairs as far as possible (as depicted in the provided picture), circumvent the building to your left, and access the Syndicate Hideout through a vent. Be aware that the vent is secured by a Digipick puzzle, and the Syndicate members will be hostile, so ensure you have suitable weapons!
Irrespective of the method you employ to infiltrate the Seokguh Syndicate Hideout, proceed through the rear entrance to locate Imogene. Following your confrontation with her, you have two options: confront her directly or pledge to deliver the evidence to Dalton (if you invite her to accompany you, she will decline).
If you choose to initiate combat with her, you’ll need to engage in a gunfight that will ultimately result in her demise, rendering further assistance impossible. However, Dalton won’t express any displeasure, and you’ll have the opportunity to loot Imogene’s Suit.
If you’ve agreed to locate Kumiho’s Slate for Bayu, your next step will be ascending to the third floor. However, exercise caution, as Syndicate members will become hostile if they spot you there. You have two choices: attempt a stealthy ascent by utilizing a vent (refer to the provided picture; it’s positioned higher up in front of you when you stand with your back to the backdoor), or opt for a direct confrontation to make your way up. The latter approach is arguably simpler, and Ryujin won’t object if you decide to engage the Syndicate aggressively.
Should you successfully retrieve the slate, you have the option to negotiate with Bayu for compensation before handing it over, resulting in an additional 2,500 credits.
Now that you’ve located Imogene and, if applicable, upheld your promise to Bayu, it’s time to return to Ryujin Industries, specifically the Executive Floor. Upon entering, you can engage in optional conversations with Yuko and Ularu. If Imogene is still alive, you can now decide her fate:
Converse with Dalton to conclude the Guilty Parties mission and receive a reward of 4,800 credits, along with two med packs and two heal pastes. Subsequently, you can proceed to the next Ryujin Industries mission, titled “The Key Ingredient.”
