How To Solve The Facility Case

When you finish the second day, you’ll see a cutscene where Supervisor Xavier mentions to someone that you’re starting to ask too many questions. It seems your secret dealings with Hal have caught their attention. Begin the third dayby logging into your system as usual.The first person to call you today will be Director Mike Trench.

After a brief conversation with him, you’ll receive a call from one of the agents you talk to the most, Barry Walker. He’ll inform you that the BioM Facility, whose address you provided him yesterday, has been set on fire. He will send you the Facility folder, andyour current objective is to prove that it was an arson attack.

Evans learns the door’s keypad code in The Operator.

Open and watch the video file named ENTRANCEinside the folder. It’s a rather long video. First, go to around frame 32 andstop the video when the person enters through the door.You’ll see him entering a code into the keypad on the right side of the door.Click on the keypad, and the system will analyze it,revealing the code to be 014485.

Then, around frame 35,click on the item the suspect is carryingand let the system analyze it. You’ll see a window labeled JERRYCAN. Next, select the ‘Prove It Was Arson’ text above andchoose the object image in the Jerrycan window.

The system couldn’t analyze the suspect’s face and gives ‘No Match’ error in The Operator.

Agent Walker will ask for the ID of the person, but when you can’t find it, he’ll decide to enter the facility and ask you for the door code. Select the ‘Find The Code’ text above andtell Agent Walker the code 014485.

During the conversation, Agent Walker will ask for more information about the arsonist.Go to 04:11in the video andstop it when the person who entered initially is seen exiting the door.Click on their face, and in the Suspect window, click on their face again, butyou’ll get a ‘No Match’ warning.

Evans links the driver’s face with current goal in The Operator.

This person looks a lot like the one from the garage shooting case involving Wells, where you also got a ‘No Match’ warning when analyzing the face. Now,open the Parking folder and the file named Killer.Click on ‘Find More Info On Arsonist’ andlink the suspect’s image in the Killer window.

After viewing the photo of Connie sent by Agent Walker, your conversation will end, and just as you’re about to talk to Supervisor Xavier Skinner,Hacker Hal will intervene.Hal will tell you that there’s a mole in the Operator program. He’ll also mention that he plans to trap the person who killed Wells in the garage and set fire to the BioM facility.

Using the guide, you’ll learn that thebomb’s archetype is an Autonomous Ticking Device.The first task is to find the bomb’s serial number. Tell Agent Pendell,‘I want you to… Enter a code on the numpad’, andenter ‘0000’ to find the serial code.

After discovering thatthe serial code starts with ABM, refer to the relevant section in the manual. You’ll see that the first step is to disable all ticking-required modules. Follow the Bomb Defusal Guide to instruct Pendell on cutting certain wires:
