(5) Exploring the hacker's apartment

If you're intentions are to kill every guard present in the apartment, then the best choice would be to take cover somewhere near the entrance and then to attack enemy units. If you only want to stun the guards, then you could consider convincing one of them to leave the apartment #1 or to perform a surprise attack on him. Dealing with the remaining two would be much easier, because for most of the time they will be looking through the windows, making themselves perfect targets #2. If you don't want to eliminate any of the guards, then you'll have to pay a lot of attention to their movements and use Cloaking System along with other implants if necessary.

Your primary objective is to reach a small room where hacker's computer can be found. The most obvious solution is to jump through a very large hole in the wall (screen above).

If somehow you can't or you don't want to use the hole in the wall, then you should look around the apartment. Interact with a small doll #1 found near the kitchen. Doing that will unlock a secret passageway near the large windows #2.

It doesn't matter which method you've chosen, because either way you'll have to find yourself standing inside the secret room. Start off by collecting some of the applications from the environment and then interact with a computer terminal. The game will force you here to solve a level 1 mini-game which shouldn't be a problem. Make sure you've read all three messages, so you'll find out that the hacker you're searching for is named Arie van Bruggen. The most likely place to find him is a local nightclub called The Hive which is being run by a Triad member named Tong Si Hung.
