Kong Tuo-Kwang is one of the assassination targets in “A House Built on Sand” mission, located in the VIP area. Below are the different methods to assassinate him:
- Poison the shisha pipe
- Release the lamp into the pool
- Use a gas explosion
Poison the shisha pipe
Kong Tuo-Kwang can be poisoned with lethal poison in the VIP area (M10,7) through the shisha pipe. The lethal poison must be carried by the player since it is not found on the map. Another option is to use rat poison, which can be found in several bottles on the map (M10,10)(M10,12)(M10,14). After administering the poison, hide in the toilets (M10,10) and wait for Kong Tuo-Kwang to arrive. Drown him before he is rescued by the bodyguards.
Note – Enter the toilets before Kong Tuo-Kwang, as one of the bodyguards will guard the entrance.
Release the lamp into the pool
Disguise yourself as a waiter (found in the staff room – M10,5), and then locate the pool in the VIP area (M10,8). Find the water level control and wait for Kong Tuo-Kwang to approach. Climb the pipe in the toilets (M10,10) to reach the crank (M10,11) and interact with it to release the lamp into the pool. Kong Tuo-Kwang will be electrocuted and killed.
Note – A pistol can also be used instead of the crank, but it’s better to shoot from hiding.
Use a gas explosion
Obtain the waiter disguise and dispose of any banned items in the staff room. Let the guards search you and then enter the Western room (M10,9) and wait for Kong Tuo-Kwang to light up an oil lamp. Create a gas leak and ignite it to kill Kong Tuo-Kwang.
To eliminate Kwang, extinguish the oil lamp in his private room. Then, open the gas valve near the pipe and exit the area. When Kong Tuo-Kwang arrives, he will ignite the lamp, causing an explosion that will attract the attention of the guards. Ensure that you are far enough away to avoid being caught.
