Sergei Karasinsky is a Cyberpunk 2077 NPC and a quest/mission giver you’ll have to locate for a Gig you can complete in Westbrook, Japantown area. The gig is named Olive Branch, and your goal is to deliver Sergei Karasinsky’s Gift to the Tyger Claws.
Olive Branch is a Cyberpunk 2077 Special Delivery Gig, and below, I’ll tell you where to find Sergei Karasinsky, how to tackle his mission, and what you can do with his gift. Look for this gig in central Japantown. On my map below, you can see that the icon is located northwest of Redwood Market.
Sergei Karasinsky is standing in an alley in front of a repair shop. Just in case you need help identifying him, you can check the image below. When you talk to him, there are several dialogue options, but all of them have the same outcome, and the result is the same. Your job is to get into the car in Sergei’s garage and drive it to a specific spot on your map.
There, you’ll meet the Tyger Claws’ leader, who is waiting for you. Except that things are not as easy as you think.
Sergei Karasinsky’s Gift Location
Inside the garage, after you loot everything, you may want to check the trunk of Sergei Karasinsky’s car. Obviously, you can just deliver the car without doing this, but why not see what the gift is? If you decide to check it out, open the trunk, and you’ll find Alex Pushkin below.
Let Alex Out or Close Trunk
Now, it’s time to make a decision. Should you let Alex out or close the trunk and deliver the car with the poor fellow inside? Truth be told, the recommended choice is to save Alex, and there are two reasons why you should consider this.
First, the reward you’ll get at the end of the mission. If you save him, the mission ends right away, and besides XP, you’ll also get €$3,700. If you don’t save him, you’ll still get the XP but only €$1,860, or half the amount. Second, regardless of what you pick, the XP you gain is pretty much the same, and the story is not affected by this minor choice.
How To Drive Sergei’s Car to the Tyger Claws’ Restaurant
On the other hand, if you want to play the bad guy or simply follow Sergei’s instructions, close the trunk, jump into the car, and follow the dotted path on your minimap. The location where you have to deliver the car (or Sergei Karasinsky’s Gift) is in northern Japantown.
Again, you’ll have to park your car in a back alley and then talk to the Tyger Claws’ leader (below). This is a simple delivery mission, and chances are you won’t get stuck. Obviously, the leader won’t tell you anything about Alex and will send you away.
Finally, as you leave the area, you’ll receive a phone call from Wakako Okada, who seems surprised and somehow pleased that you do what is asked of you without asking too many questions.
