Collect 3 medallions task | Police station in Resident Evil 2 Resident Evil 2 Guide and Walkthrough
Last update: 24 January 2019
In this part of Resident Evil 2, you have to leave the police station (temporarily). To collect the medallions (3 in total), you have to complete the previously described parts: find the officer's note, the blue spades key and the cutting tool.
To collect medallions, you need to find 3 statues and enter the right code. Insert medallions into the holes of the white statue located in the main hall.
Note: after completing this stage (when you insert all the medallions into the holes), you will be moved automatically to another part of the game (the basement). You are able to go back to the police station, however, you will be chased by immortal Tyrant. Try to solve as many puzzles as you can, and collect useful items, ammo and medicaments before you proceed to that part.
Tip: before you start this stage, try to get a sub-weapon - it will be useful against the Lickers. More information can be found in How to get another weapon? chapter.

The first medallion - The main hall (lion)
The first medallion is acquired from the lion's statue located in the main hall. The statue is on the upper floor, behind the white statue. Select the following password: lion, herb, bird. Press the action button - you will receive one of the medallions (put it into your inventory). You can take it to the statue immediately or keep in the inventory. Medallions can also be stored in a metal box - this will allow you to save inventory slots.
The second medallion - near the library (unicorn)
Reach the main hall's upper floor and go to the western part of the building - to the library. The next statue (unicorn) is behind the library's southern door. The password is: fish, cancer, jug with water.
The third medallion - blow up the door on the third floor (lady)
The third medallion is the most difficult one to obtain. This process involves a few steps...
Reach the ground floor and head west (the second gate). Go to the end of the corridor and enter the last room. You will encounter a few new zombies - try to avoid them (you won't have to go back here again).
Use the cutting tool to open the locked door. An electronic gadget is lying on the desk - pick it up.
Head to the staircase in the north-west part of the building. Reach the second floor. In the corridor, you will find a spot where you can use the round handle - this place is near the leaking water tank. This round handle is in the eastern part of the offices on the ground floor. The item is behind a locked door (use the cutting tool to open it) [Eastern offices, 1F]. Go around the corner into another corridor and stop for a moment...
A Licker is at the end of that corridor - this monster is very durable and powerful, but also blind. If you don't start shooting it and move quietly, you should be able to hide in the room on the left. If you have a shotgun/grenade launcher then you can try to fight the monster. Avoid attacking it if you are carrying only the standard pistol.
The aforementioned room has a 9V battery - it will lie on the desk. This is the second part of a detonator. Open the inventory and combine the battery with the electronic gadget - you will get a detonator.
Reach the third floor and go to the room at the end of the corridor, the one adjacent to the library (west storage room, 3F). There, you will find a C4 explosive attached to a barricade. Place the detonator on the explosive and leave the room (you have 10 seconds until the explosion).
The explosion has revealed the last statue - lady. The password is: lady, bow, snake. This time, the symbols are hard to read. Take the last medallion to the main hall. Insert it into the statue to unlock a secret passage.
Tip: a Licker will appear in the room after the explosion. Leave the room fast. Also, a zombie hanging from the ceiling will wake up - you can shoot him down earlier.
Placing the medallions and opening the passage
Once you get the three medallions, place them into the statue in the main hall. Watch out - when you do that, you will finish this part of the game. Your character returns to the police station later in the game but solving puzzles and collecting items will be much more difficult - you will be chased by Tyrant.
