How to complete Academic Interest in Gray Zone Warfare

To complete Academic Interest in Gray Zone Warfare, you’ll have to head over to Midnight Sapphire Hotel and get the Suspicious Box for Turncoat. You’ll discover the place of the drug trade in Midnight Sapphire, and then you can complete the quest by handing over the item to Turncoat.

It is recommended that you carry a large amount of ammo with you as sneaking in might not always work due to the game’s AI. So if you are faced with imminent combat, it’s better to be prepared with adequate ammunition.
