Streets of Hope - Murdering Gavin LeBlond | 9: Shaving Lenny Hitman: Absolution Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

General assumptions: Gavin LeBlond walks mostly in the scrapyard area. You should eliminate this person as last target especially that he is in the area with door leading to the next stage of ninth game mission.

As already said, the scrapyard is the favorite place of Gavin LeBlond to be. You get there in two main ways. The more obvious method is to use the main entrance (screen above), located right from the inaccessible barbershop. On lower difficulty levels only one cop guards the entrance, but on higher difficulty levels you'll encounter here at least two persons.

A good idea to distract policemen is to trigger an alarm in one of cars parked nearby. After this action you can take the advantage of confusion or eliminate cops. In case of person standing next to the shutter it would be good to attack him from behind. Note - the nearest container is away from the scrapyard entrance so make sure that all your actions are done in right moments, so you have enough time to hide bodies.

Less obvious way to get to the scrapyard is crossing by the garage located at back of the barbershop. Start with going to the alley located between a barber ship and the car garage (screen above).

Ultimately, you have to get to the passage shown on the above screen. Depending on your preferences, you can get to the scrapyard by neutralizing persons standing here, distracting them with a car alarm or sneaking past them (using Instinct to hide your identity).

When it comes to the scrapyard, it is inaccessible for unauthorized persons, so it is strongly advised to use disguise. My recommendation is Hope policeman disguise. Depending on the difficulty level you have to watch out here for two or three other cops - one or two persons are patrolling main part of the scrapyard and a single cop stand at the fence located at the back of the scrapyard (screen above), near the passage from the car garage.

Once you get to the scrapyard you have to decide how you want to get rid of Gavin LeBlond. The least original method is shooting or strangling him. The attack should be carried definitely somewhere near the previously mentioned fence, of course, after exploring and securing the area first.

A much better idea is to eliminate LeBlond in some kind of arranged accident and in this case you have as many as three solutions. First of them is throwing Gavin into oil tank. The oil tank is located next to the main scrapyard entrance, so you should first deal with local policemen. Wait until LeBlond stops at the railing and push him (screen above).

Another method to murder LeBlond on the scrapyard involves electrocuting him. In order to do this, you have to get to the previously mentioned fence at the back of the scrapyard. Start with connecting the power supply to the fence. You have to wait until Gavin appears at the fence and pull the lever in the last moment (screen above).

The third variant is connected with a car garage, the area connecting the scrapyard with a side alley. The plan is to crush your target with a car located on the lift. Unfortunately, its realization is not easy and we start with eliminating all persons in the garage and around area.

But that's not all, because you must also encourage LeBlond to stop under the car on the lift and in order to do this it is best to use throwable items. After your target find him in the right place, quickly pull the lever shown on the above screen.

A completely different way of murdering Gavin LeBlond is shooting him with a sniper rifle. As for reminder a sniper rifle Ilyon R700 can be found on the first floor of donuts shop and in order to get there you have to distract or remove a guard watching the stairs.

Stay in the room, where you've found a sniper rifle and place yourself at the first shutter from the right. Aim at the main entrance to the scrapyard. It is best to shoot when Gavin stops near the oil tank (screen above). After the successful assassination holster the weapon, hide in the closet near the stairs and wait until the situation in the area has settled.
