I Fought the Law Walkthrough
Meet with Elizabeth Peralez
Head to the objective northwest of the Reconciliation Park fast travel point in City Center – Corpo Plaza then enter the vehicle. Speak with the couple then agree to take the shard. Watch the braindance and scan for clues. After you’ve found everything, exit the braindance. Get out of the vehicle then speak with Jefferson. Agree that they might be on to something then continue the conversation.
Meet River
Afterwards, call Detective Ward and arrange a meeting with him. Head towards the objective at Chubby Buffalo’s Bar-B-Q on the east side of Heywood just north of the Hanford Overpass fast travel point.
In the restaurant, approach the booth to begin speaking with the pair. When the detective leaves, sit in his place to continue speaking with River. To continue your conversation further, follow River to his vehicle and hop in. You’ll need to make a choice to see his boss or the CI first.
Meet the CI
When you head off to see the CI, exit the vehicle then head inside Max-imum Pleasure. Approach the counter and speak with the CI.
When you tell him that Igor sent you, he’ll run away. To open the door he runs through, you’ll need a Body Value of 6. Chase after him to the alley outside to interrogate the CI with River. Afterwards, speak with River again.
Meet the Boss
When you see the boss, exit the vehicle and follow River into the Cherry Blossom Market. He’ll then have you ask the vendors about Christine Markov. Ask around, then River will text you saying that he found her. Follow the objective to meet with River at a vendor’s stall and speak with her.
Afterwards, talk to River again as you head back to his vehicle. When you arrive at the vehicle, you’ll see 2 Tyger Claw. You can either let River deal with them or get a few words in as well. When the encounter finishes, speak with River.
Now that you’re off to the club, exit the vehicle and speak with River. Head to the warehouse and enter the area via a downed fence in the back. Once you’re in, head through another broken part of the fence directly in front of you. Turn right and jump over the fence. Climb up on the containers against the building to reach a ladder and take that up to the top.
Once at the top, turn left to find another ladder. Climb up this ladder to reach the roof then proceed through an opening in the roof immediately on your left.
After you drop down, take a right and follow the stairs down. Head straight towards the predominant lights underneath a shipping container that says “Caution Wear Protective Equipment”. Take out the enemy that walks around this area then open the doors under these lights to find the entrance to the club.
Call the elevator then take it down to the club. There is an optional objective to take out the Animal boss so go ahead and proceed without caution in this area if you’d like.
Search the area
Make your way up to the second level then head into the second door underneath the lips on the left to find a headset that you can connect to.
Do so, then continue your search for the office, which can be found in the next room on the left. Check the computer’s files in this room to watch a recording. Afterwards, speak with River and agree to leave with him.
Once you arrive at the new location, speak with the detective then River. You can either advise him to go ahead or not to do it. Your choice does not matter, since nothing will stop him from reopening the case.
Meet Elizabeth Peralez
Next, call Elizabeth Peralez then head on over to her apartment at the Luxury Apartments fast travel point in Westbrook – Charter Hill. Use the intercom next to the entrance to gain access to the building then take the elevator to the penthouse.
It’s your choice whether to share the information with them. It doesn’t seem to matter either way. Once you’re done speaking with them, leave the building to complete the job.
