Press E to open it and use the stairs to climb down the hatch stairs. Now you have entered a bunker with multiple rooms. In the room you arrive at, go to a locked door on the right, which will need the maintenance keycard we mentioned earlier to open.

Upon unlocking the door with the card, you must cross the first room and then reach the second room. Once you have done that, search and explore the area with 3 plant shelves parallel to each other. You’ll find a dead body between the shelves and the crossbow right next to it. Grab the bow by pressing E and equip it from your inventory.

Once equipped with the bow, you’ll find its ammunition, known as crossbow bolts, attached to the wall behind you. Immediately grab them for some starting bow ammo. More bolts can be found in these 2 rooms if you search entirely.
