Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Cross the bridge and head to a large building. Collect clues #1 and #2 near the door.
  2. 2
    Hop through a window into the building. Use the invisibility move and moving rugs to bypass guards. Knock out the guard and hit the safe for clues #3 and #4.
  3. 3
    Exit the building. Collect clues #5 and #6 near another guard. Sneak past the guard and wallop him.
  4. 4
    Ahead, General Tso guards the area between crate stacks. Sneak past him.
  5. 5
    Enter the next building, which is rigged with searchlights and a laser wall. Use invisibility to pass through safely. Collect clue #7 on the other side.
  6. 6
    Head back outside and use fireworks for a Ninja Spire Jump to the roof. Edge across above General Tso's head.
  7. 7
    Find a hole in the roof and drop down to deal with a guard. Collect clues #8 and #9 inside, then climb the pipe out.
  8. 8
    Hop to the trees and use them to reach the first checkpoint.
  9. 9
    Jump through the hole in the wall. Use a moving rug to get past a guard; run as far as possible before hitting the Circle button. Kill the guard.
  10. 10
    Collect clues #10 through #14 from alcoves on either side of the rug.
  11. 11
    Use the rail to exit the building and reach the next one. A key is visible but behind a reinforced window. Watch out for enemies on the other side.
  12. 12
    After dealing with enemies, bash open a safe for clues #15 and #16. Hop up the trees on the right for clues #17 and #18.
  13. 13
    Climb the trees on the other side to confront Chow Mei. After defeating her, climb the pipe.
  14. 14
    Move counterclockwise around the building to drop down on General Tso. Collect clues #19 and #20 he was guarding.
  15. 15
    Climb to the next two levels and ride the rail to reach a checkpoint.
  16. 16
    Enter the adjacent room filled with lasers. Bounce across the room and disarm the lasers. Collect clues #21 through #24 dangling over the floor.
  17. 17
    Find a loose clue (#25) beside a safe on the far side. The safe also contains clues #26 and #27.
  18. 18
    To exit, wait for a hook on a belt to circle around and grab on. Ride it back to the key building.
  19. 19
    Chow Mei is around the corner guarding clues #28 and #29. Collect them and climb to the next level.
  20. 20
    From here, you can reach the key. Climb a final pole to the roof and use the trampoline to get the last clue (#30) from atop the spire.
  21. 21
    Open the vault beside the trampoline, then return to the level just below.
  22. 22
    To reach the key, dodge lasers similar to the Paris level. Once at the bottom, disarm the lasers and grab your key.
