Walkthrough
While exploring the countryside, Jasir will contact Crane and state how his people got even sicker once the water was returned to them following the quest "Gaining Credence". Go to Jasir's farm and talk to him. After a short conversation, Crane agrees to look at the pumping station, so head there.
At the station, several dead infected can be found dead on the floor and the water is contaminated. The doors leading into the pumping station itself are jammed of blocked. With no way to head inside through regular means, head to the lake at the back of the building. Some yellow pipes lead into the water. Jump in and open the gate of the southernmost large pipe to swim back into the pumping station, be mindful that it is locked with an easy lock.
Inside the pumping station, two bandits can be heard talking to one another, with a third one bumping in later:
Bandit: "...No, no, no. It wasn't like that. He killed himself after all that shit went down."
Bandit 2: "No he didn't! I'm telling you, I've seen him with his wife up in the mountains."
Bandit: "Oh please, you've been here this whole fucking time."
Bandit 2: "I ain't lyin', motherfucker! She looked better! Like, cured, maybe!"
Bandit: "Now I know you're lying. Nobody gets their mind back after that kind of shit."
Bandit 2: "Tellin' you, man. Seen it with my own eyes."
Bandit: "No way. He killed himself, she died, kid wound up on the streets. Got it in her head she was a witch hunter or some shit."
Bandit 2: "Who? The second kid?"
Bandit: "No, dumbass, the first one."
Bandit 2: "Yeah, well. No witches around here. Just fuckin' zombies."
Bandit: "He always drank too much. Got drunk, hit her, she miscarried... everything went downhill after that."
Bandit 2: "He didn't kill himself."
Bandit: "You know so much? Then where is he? Huh? You gonna lead the way?"
Bandit 2: "In the middle of all this zombie garbage? You out of your fucking mind?"
Bandit: "Ah, fuck it. Pretty soon we'll be rich. Won't have to worry about him and whether he's dead or alive or whatever."
Bandit 2: "Yeah. Plan's good. I worry, though. You've heard about this "stranger?""
Bandit: "Heard about what now?"
Bandit 2: "Some asshole doin' all their dirty work for 'em. If they don't got balls to do somethin', he steps in."
Bandit: "Guns blazing, huh? Come on, that's superhero bullshit. Grow the fuck up."
Bandit 2: "That's just what I heard, is all."
Bandit: "Yeah, you heard bullshit."
Bandit 3: "Jesus Christ, will you two shut the fuck up already? Some people are trying to sleep here."
Bandit 2: "We can sleep once this is done, man!"
Bandit 3: "I'm gonna sleep NOW, and you better get some shuteye too. Who you think's gonna carry all the loot?"
After killing the three bandits the power gets shut off and Bekir will burst through the door on the ground floor, panicked and wearing the colors of Rais' Gang. After a brief conversation Bekir will attack Crane, so kill him. Enter the room he came in from and climb up the ladder, head to the electricity box and activate it. Crane will contact Jasir after having done so. This will complete the quest.
