How to complete the Zashiki-Warashi side mission in Ghostwire: Tokyo

In Ghostwire: Tokyo, players will come across various Side Missions while heading towards Shiroyama Shrine, and completing them quickly will definitely help level up your Skills. The Zashiki-Warashi mission will be one of the first side missions available for players to complete.  

Where to find Zashiki-Warashi?

To start this Side Mission, head south from the Namita Shrine to reach this location. There are a few enemies in this area, and Red Ether Crystals surround them. Fire at them to defeat the enemies quickly. You will find an old woman's Spirit near the entrance of a house. Interact with her to start the Zashiki-Warashi Side Mission.

Collect the rice cakes to lure Zashiki-Warashi and head inside the house. Use your Spectral Vision to find key items around the house to investigate the area. Players will find a safe in the room straight ahead of the entrance, and the key is hidden inside a Buddha Shrine that's located in the room left from the entrance. Open the safe to find the house floor plan hidden inside. Once that's done, head over towards the Landlord's room.

Interact with Zashiki-Warashi and return to the old woman's Spirit to finish this Side Mission. Completing the Zashiki-Warashi Side Mission in Ghostwire: Tokyo will reward players with 3000 Meika, 1x Magamata, and approximately 500 Spirits.
