New objective: Find a way to ground level
Listen to the short conversation with gangsters standing at the bottom, who will inform you about need to get to Jackie's mansion in order to save people imprisoned there. Jump down to the roof and follow your darkling. STOP after reaching longer stairs. Turn right and locate a balcony under you, where you'll find another relic (Fool's Phylactery - 12/29). This secret has to be picked up with the left tentacle so aim at it and press the Q key.
You can now go to the lower rooftop. Prepare to eliminate a new group of enemies, armed with melee weapons. Dealing with them shouldn't be a problem. Keep exploring rooftops, reaching the place where you can see in the distance enemies with firearms. To attack them use any throwable objects found here and especially large fans. Also watch out for two new enemies with melee weapons, eliminating them as soon as they appear (on the right).
You can keep going, turning to the right. As soon as you jump down to the lower part of the rooftop, start RUNNING (hold the SHIFT key), because opponents will start illuminating this area with reflectors and as a result you'll be vulnerable to their attacks. Continue to sprint up to the point, where you'll land on the lower, unlit place.
Move forwards. After reaching the new location use the metal bars or fans to eliminate nearby enemies. But it would be good to let at least one enemy get closer to you in order to take his firearms. With the rest of enemies you can deal in any way, helping yourself with tentacles or shooting to them. Do not forget to pick up weapons after the fight.
Keep going, watching for new enemies, who can be killed with fast slashes of your right tentacle. After jumping to the adjacent rooftop quickly hide behind some cover, because you'll find yourself under massive shootout. You can now start shooting at your enemies from behind the cover or use tentacles. In the latter case I strongly recommend throwing at them propane canisters which can be found on the left side (screen above).
Slowly move forward, eliminating more enemies from the distance (aim at the propane canisters) or in direct fight (hide behind covers waiting for them to come closer). Be careful, because after approaching a catwalk between rooftops, new enemies will appear from behind the covers. You have to deal with them quickly.
Make sure that you've eliminated all enemies and approach the hole shown on the above screen. You have to crouch and then carefully get to the bottom. Move to the limousine parked inside the building to end this not very long chapter.
