Cyberpunk 2077: Take Down Taki Kenmochi in Kabuki

AntMag.NET

Alright, let's get this Gig sorted. This one's called "Troublesome Neighbors" and it's a pretty standard 'Gun for Hire' mission out in Kabuki. You'll need Street Cred Lv 1 to even get it. Don't worry, it's straightforward once you know the layout.

Walkthrough

1
Head to Kabuki: First things first, you need to get to the Gig location. It's on the northeast border of Little China, right where it meets Kabuki. Look for the '?' on your map – that's your cue. As you get close, Regina will give you a call with the rundown. Your target is Taki Kenmochi, chilling in a store within the marker.
2
Neutralize Taki Kenmochi: Now, here's the deal with these 'Gun for Hire' gigs: you can go lethal or non-lethal. Non-lethal usually nets you some bonus rewards, but it means you have to extract her. Lethal is simpler, less hassle. Your call, but either way, try to keep the body count low – stealth is your friend here.
3
Stealth Approach: Once you're in the hostile area, hug the right side and then take a left. You'll find a lone guard chilling by a vending machine. Use that vending machine to create a distraction – just interact with it. While he's looking, sneak up behind him and perform a Takedown. Make sure to stash his body somewhere out of sight, like in a dumpster or a dark corner.
4
Second Guard: Head back to the alley you came from. Carefully open the door leading into the next area. You'll see another guard. Yep, you guessed it – use that vending machine again to lure him over, then Takedown him too.
5
Target Acquired: The next person you'll see to your left is Taki, your target. But wait, there's one more guard lurking around the corner. Stay low and stay quiet.
6
The Takedown: Luckily, Taki usually has her back to you. This is your chance! Move in and perform a Takedown. If you're going for the non-lethal option, this is it. Pick up her body.
7
Extraction (Non-Lethal): If you chose non-lethal, you now need to get Taki out of here. Just follow the objective marker to the waiting car and dump her body. That'll wrap up the Gig.

Tips

Using those vending machines is key to luring guards away for easy Takedowns. Don't skip this step!
Always stash bodies. Getting spotted by a patrolling guard can turn a stealthy Gig into a firefight real quick.
Decide on lethal or non-lethal early. Non-lethal requires more careful body disposal, but the rewards can be worth it.
