(Optional) Search the van
When you arrive at the pier with the questmarker, you can find a van parked at the beach under the pier. In the back of the van is a woman who you can pick up and put down anywhere you want. It’s recommended doing this to get some extra money after the gig is done.
Find the cyberpsycho on the pier
The psycho is at the very end of the pier.
Defeat the attacker
Defeat this psycho (Diego Ramirez) whichever way you want. He is relatively low-level and doesn’t pose too much harm.
Search the attacker
Loot his body for a shard (quest item).
Read the shard titled “Archived Conversation: Ken Masuda and Diego Ramirez”
Open the Menu > scroll over Journal > click “Shards” section below Journal > scroll down and read the new shards at the bottom of the list. Close the menu when done.
Search the area to collect information
This is the only tricky thing to find in this gig. You are supposed to collect information but it highlights the entire pier as a search area. The location isn’t far from the psycho. A few meters before the end of the pier you can find some dead bodies on the floor. One of them holds a shard. See the exact location in the images below.
