The map above represents the area of Hitman's sixth main episode (the last one of the first season). The contract, called Situs Inversus, takes place in GAMA private hospital located in Hokkaido, Japan. Agent 47 must infiltrate a private clinic working (as default) undercover as a VIP patient - Tobias Rieper.
In "Situs Inversus" mission your task it to assassinate two targets. This contract is unusual because Erich Soders, one of your targets, is on an operation theatre table. Although he is defenceless, his operating theatre is very well guarded which means that getting to the hospital's main area will not be an easy task. Your second target is Yuki Yamazaki. In her case, you do the usual stuff. Yuki goes around the various parts of the private hospital which means that you can eliminate her in private or by using various disguises or environment objects.
Going around the private hospital is very troublesome because of security measures and the AI that oversees this building. This topics are described in the further part of the guide.
Mission preparation
Sadly, you can't prepare yourself in any way for this mission because of the security measures in the entire hospital. By default, you can't take any of Agent 47's equipment. This means that you start the contract with empty inventory and all objects, that can be used as a weapon or that allow to get the access to new locations in the hospital must be acquired during your exploration.
This situation improves with each new Hokkaido's Mastery Level. With new Mastery Levels you can use Agency pickup containers and get one, selected by you, item. Everything "goes back to normal" after reaching the maximum level 20. After that, on the mission you can take the standard equipment with you even if you decide to start the contract without any extra disguises (you start as VIP Tobias Rieper).
If you have the opportunity then on this mission you should take the Disposable Scrambler that allows you to bypass many security doors in the hospital (warning - this device can be only used three times!). But this is optional because you can access other locations by being disguised as people that have the permission to access certain areas.
This mission's default starting point is the apartment of Agent 47 (Tobias Rieper) (M8,1). Without disguise, you can visit hospital's most important locations on levels 0 and 1, such as the restaurant, the sauna or the garden. If you get enough levels in this mission and unlock new starting points you can try to begin the mission in the kitchen disguised as chef (M8,4) or in the hospital's main building dressed as a surgeon (M8,34). However, the most useful disguises (bodyguard and hospital director) must be acquired by the player but, fortunately, this is not a difficult task (details can be found in the section dedicated to disguises). If you plan on using the sniper rifle then you should choose the mountain path (M8,17). You can also choose to deliver a sniper rifle to this location (there is an Agency pickup container).
Mission information
Your mission targets are Erich Soders and Yuki Yamazaki. From the beginning of the mission, Erich Soders can be found laying on the operation table in the hospital's main building (M8,30) waiting for his operation. Even though the target can't move, there are many ways in which you can eliminate him (most of them require you to sabotage various medical devices in the clinic). Yuki Yamazaki walks around the clinic. Among the places that she visits are: her apartment (M8,6), the spa (M8,23), the sauna (M8,24), the garden (M8,32) and the restaurant (M8,22). Yuki is accompanied by two bodyguards but in certain moments they can be separated (i.e. when she wants to smoke a cigar, meet with the director or relax in sauna).
Warning - If you case an alarm, Yuki can be evacuated to the main hospital building or (in the extreme case) can escape by using a cable car (M8,4). In this situation you must make the cable car fall into the abyss before she leaves the mission area (you have 45 seconds for that). For information on how to do it check out the page dedicated to the ways to eliminate Yuki.
Difficulty level: This mission puts an emphasis on getting accustomed to the terrain. During your first time exploring the hospital you can be overwhelmed by the complexity of this location and the necessity of getting special access codes etc. to some of its parts. But, with the time, you will be able to understand the ways in which things here work and be able to use environment to get to your targets easier and kill them. First, you should check out the map above and read the next page of this guide, especially the one with the information about disguises and the hospital exploration rules.
