Skillful provocateur

Gary the Recluse claims that Murzo's right hand man is at the laundry in Eastern Pripyat. He will pay well for whatever is on his body.
Complete Ivantsov's chain quest and turn in any cyclics you owe him before advancing this quest.
==Walkthrough==
=== Eastern Pripyat ===
Twenty Brotherhood white coats will be surrounding the laundry. Take them out and talk to Sanya Frost, the Freedomer in the laundry.
Frost claims not to work for Murzo at all despite having taken on tasks for the Brotherhood. He drank with Gary the day before and stole a laptop, dictaphone, and piece of paper from him. Frost proceeded to hide out in X-8 laboratory but had to escape, leaving his loot behind in the secret part of the lab. Strelok tells him not to leave the laundry for now.
Beware eight more white coats scattered around the area who will accost you trying to leave the laundry.
=== X-8 laboratory ===
Four snorks and a few tushkano will be waiting in the lab. Head into the secret section and pick up the rucksack and laptop.
The rucksack will have the next chess move on it and Chessplayer's Dictaphone No22. Playing this dictaphone completes Stone around the neck.
"I'm tired of watching you, Marked One, as you cut down my fellows one by one, like a lumberjack in a timber yard... I see you've forgotten how your trigger finger itches something fierce! That's why I'm sending a hired assassin after you as a preventative measure... He's a sinister killer named Sanya Frost... He shoots without taking his hands out of his pockets. So if you see him, you better pull the trigger first! You'll hear my answer to your lawlessness at the Bar.. Young people are so gullible and naive... There's also a clue to the stash. Amen!"
For the first time in the storyline we are ahead of the Chess Player! The plan was almost too obvious - we were meant to kill Sanya Frost before he could speak to us. Apparently the next clue is at the Bar, but we will need to return to Gary first.
Picking up the laptop advances The Recluse's Mystery and opens Heavenly Office.
=== Jupiter ===
Confront Gary back in Jupiter. He refuses to tell you anything and turns hostile. Upon his death the quest is completed. Time to deliver the laptop to Sviblov and check out the Bar.
=== Bar ===
When approaching the Duty base, a shot will ring out. Ivantsov will be dead and the assassin is gunned down by the local Duty guards. This suicide assassin is wearing clown makeup - could this be the white clown Kruglov and Kholod were referring to in their zombified ramblings?
Pick up the Shah's Letter off of the assassin and search Ivantsov's body for his flash drive, which contains an entry about a stash in the Arena. This opens Last refuge.
==Notes==
*The white coats in this mission are the first we see of the Monolith faction. They also heavily utilize underbarrel grenades, so bring explosive resist.
*Despite being dressed as (and claiming to be) a Freedomer, Sanya Frost is a loner.
*Gary's faction changes to Malokrovnik when he turns hostile.
*The Malokrovnik assassin carries a rare SVU-A.
