After the cutscene, you are instructed to head to an alley beside Long John Avenue. When you arrive and walk into the yellow arrow, another cutscene engages, showing the triads arriving. You are given instructions to steal a [[Mule]] in which the heroin is loaded. You are then thrown into a shootout. The shootout is the only way to obtain the truck, as you cannot sneak and steal the truck. It is best to have Body Armour on because some of the goons have powerful weapons, although the brick wall provides good cover from them.
==Description==


As you progress throgh the deadly shootout, eventually a guy will start up the truck. After killing  most of the remaining goons, a yellow arrow pops up behind the truck. You are required to put away your heavy weapon if you have one and run after the truck. The truck is going slow enough to catch up to it. When you do reach the back of the truck, a short cutscene shows [[Niko]] grabing on to the moving truck. Tap A or X repeatedly to climb onto the roof of the truck. Once on, the truck will start driving recklessly and so Niko will have to roll along the roof to avoid falling while crawling to the front. If you do fall off the truck's roof, tap A or X to climb back on. Make your way to the front of the truck. And when you do, yet another cutscene will engage automatically. The cutscene shows Niko smash the window and climb into the passenger seat. The driver pulls a gun and starts shooting. Niko grabs hold of the gun and points it at the drivers head, and BANG! he's dead. The driver will fall out the drivers seat and on onto the ground. You can get out and take his gun if you want. After you take control of the truck, you will receive a phonecall from Phil Bell. You are instructed to drive the truck to the Old Mansion in Northern [[Alderney]], where Phil's nephew [[Frank Gallo]] will be expecting you. When you arrive a cutscene engages. And, there you have it,  you have completed another mission, and you are $11,000 richer!
