Go to the meeting place near the cinema in Lumina Square, moving to the location “Pedestrian Zone”. Then go to the entrance to the cinema and talk to the man in the black suit. Then go around the building on the right and enter the alley, where you will find a girl in a white dress – talk to her.
During the conversation, say the code word “Rice” so that she trusts you. Then agree to help her get out of the square. To do this, go through the alley in the direction where there are no guards, and go to the glowing quest point. Interact with it so that the girl is automatically transported to a new location.
Now go to the next safe place near the fence and do the same as before. Then run along the embankment to Chaos Reece and talk to her again. Eva, the owner of the newsstand, will help you by sending the bodyguards on a false trail.
