    Make your way to the service elevator to complete the objective: Enter the building via the service elevator.
  20. 20
    Press the elevator button, get in, and press the button again to close it. You will arrive on the 1st floor in the storage room.

    Grab the axe near the elevator.
  22. 22
    Continue down the path and break down a boarded-up passage with the axe.
