How To Find Sergeant Yumi

To start the quest, you will first have to meet Sergeant Yumi. You can find him at the UC Security HQ. The HQ is inNew Atlantis, on plane Jemison in the Alpha Centauri system. However, you must complete the ‘Keeping the Peace’ quest as a pre-requisite to Break at Dawn.

Should You Give The Ring To Hugo
Once you reach Athena Tower, you will find Hugo Fournier fuming about Octavio. Ask him about what happens in Dawn’s Roost as your conversation progresses. At one point in the conversation, you will be given the choice to persuade Hugo to hand over the ring to you or let him keep the ring for himself.
Whether you hand over the ring to Hugo or keep it for yourself is entirely up to you since there’s no difference in outcome. If you decide to let Hugo keep the ring, you’re able to return to Sergeant Yumi, tell him it was an engagement ring, and explain the situation to him.
How To Persuade Hugo
However, you can also persuade Hugo to hand over the ring to you. Doing so will let Hugo believe it was a gift, and thus, Octavio is the owner. Once you have taken the ring from Hugo, return it to Sergeant Yumi and give it back to him. You can also decide to keep the ring by lying to Sergeant Yumi by choosing“The ring wasn’t stolen. It was gifted”. You can later sell the ring for 655 credits.
Here’s how to persuade Hugo Fournier to hand over the ring to you:
No matter what you do, just reporting back to Sergeant Yumi after dealing with Hugo will reward you with 100 EXP and 2000 Credits.
