Check the dog tags. There are 5 and each has a unique last 4 numbers. But one (Bernard Wilson) has the numbers scratched out. Order the tags by the order shown in the photo (check the numbers on the helmets to match to the list on the note). You get the following.

Now to work out the missing number look at the others and follow a pattern for each of the digits in the last 4. The first digit sequence from top to bottom is 1, 3, 1, 3... so we can guest the missing first digit is 1. Then the second sequence goes. 8, 6, 4, 2 => 0. The third sequence is 9, 8, 7, 6 => 5. The fourth is 0, 1, 2, 3 => 4

Now use this code on the fire pit lock to open a secret passage.

Go down to the bunker.

Star: on the wall light on the left.

Tap to move the chair then open the drawers to find a puzzle piece.

These open the 2 unlocked green lockers to find another puzzle piece and a sledge hammer.

Now use the screwdriver on the left open green locker to remove it from the wall. and slide it to the left.

Use the sledge hammer on the cracked wall behind it to open a hole.

Another body and more evidence. Then collect the third puzzle piece from the hole.

Finally open the blue cupboard and collect a Rubik's cube, this is a clue.

Exit the bunker to find Luca and Darius. Luca shoots at Darius, you then return fire and he will drive off.

You will get some keys. Got to the garage and sue then on the dirt bike so you can give chase.

This starts a forest maze puzzle.

Move around the maze avoiding Luca and collecting the items to help us.

You will need to collect an Axe to chop the trees. Collect logs to let you cross the 2 blue water tiles. You will need the shovel to dig in the X spot to find a key and then you must reach the Chest top left to get a trip wire.

Use the trip wire to stop Luca. Place the trip wire somewhere he cannot avoid, after one of the ramps works.

Now that Luca is stopped you will have another shooting puzzle as you did previously.

Move the sights to find him and take your shot. Continue until his health bar drops.

If you miss he will shoot back and damage you.

Once done Luca is arrested and you have solved the case.

You can watch the ending scenes.
