(2) Passing through the Kuaigan district Deus Ex: HR Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
The current goal of your walk is located in the Youzhao district. Paradoxically however passing through the Kuaigan district is not an easy task, because according to Pritchard's warnings, there are enemy Belltower soldiers hunting for a main hero. Members of this organization won't open fire at you as soon as they notice you, but you can be sure that they will attack you if you come to close or if they can see you for longer than few seconds #1. So it is far better to avoid them, and this is also because they are very well armed and eliminating them could be difficult. Single soldiers who can be stun without any problems are another matter #2.
The best way to get to the Youzhao district is to use local subway, because it will allow you to avoid most enemy patrols. After leaving the construction site I suggest to head west #1, staying on the first level. On your way you would probably meet only one enemy soldier, which is easy to be stunned or bypassed. An entrance to the subway is located a little farther to the west #2.
If you choose to go through the southern part of the Kuaigan district, you have to reckon that Belltower soldiers stand mainly near the entrances to previously explored locations (i.e. the Hive and the Hung Hua Hotel). What's more, near the Hung Hua Hotel you could be stopped by a civilian #1, who recognizes you as a wanted person. The game will you allow you then to act in several ways #2.
I do not recommend refusing to give him a bribe, because the civilian would alarm surrounding guards #1. You can pay him 1500 credits for leaving you alone. But the best solution is to intimidate the civilian #2, because then he neither alarms Belltower soldiers nor takes the bribe from you.
Warning! During your walk through the Kuaigan district, the game will offer you a side quest connected to getting a new biochip. I do not recommend completing this quest, because it results in problems in further part of the game. If you still plan surgery, scroll down to the description of Step 3 (Getting a new biochip in the L.I.M.B. clinic). But if you want to hear my advice or you've already visited the clinic, then scroll down to the description of Step 4 (Getting into the Harvesters' hideout).
