Description

Ray Boccino calls Niko Bellic up and tells him to go to Tudor, Alderney where he introduces him to Pegorino associate Phil Bell. After a brief introduction, Phil asks Ray about a favor. When Ray states that he can't do it, he suggests Niko for the job. Phil takes a chance and explains to Niko that some Triads have a truck load of heroin that they think is cursed from previous situations, and are looking to offload it at almost any price. Phil wants Niko to head over to the Truck, kill the Triads, take the truck, and bring it to the old mansion to his nephew Frankie Gallo as a "wedding gift".

Niko heads over to an alley way off Long John Avenue. As Niko takes cover behind a short wall the Triads and the truck arrive. Niko ambushes and kills all of the triads, however before he gets to the truck it drives off. Niko chases after the truck and a short sprint later, he grabs onto the back of it.

He eventually climbs onto the roof up the back, and slowly has to army-crawl towards the front, each time a corner turns and Niko slides off, he struggles to climb back up again. When he reaches the front, Niko will swing down, kick through the window, and struggle with the driver in the front seat, putting his own gun to his head, shooting him and kicking him onto the street.

When in control of the truck Niko drives it to the old mansion off Beaverhead Ave, and leaves it with Phil's newphew Frankie for the time being. After this the mission is complete.

This mission unlocks the The Fixer's Assassinations.

Trivia

The player can find a Sultan RS behind the garage by the old mansion after giving the truck to Frankie.
The heroin in this mission appears in The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony as well.
If you shoot the truck driver in the head before he leaves,it will keep going as if you never killed him. After you get to the truck's cab, he will still be alive.
If the player continues to hang behind the truck, it will eventually reach a dead end and start ramming at the wall.
Dwayne's backup service comes in very handy during the initial gunfight. The key is to summon it, and wait for it to arrive before Niko makes himself known; the Triads will initially attack Dwayne's men and be distracted.

-In this mission, [[Ray Boccino]] introduces [[Niko Bellic|Niko]] to Pegorino associate [[Phil Bell]], who will ask you to steal a truck loaded with heroin from a Chinese gang. This heroin is likely to be the one brought on the [[Platypus]] and which [[Hossan]] speaks about. It is also believed that it is the same heroin featured in the missions [[Action/Reaction]] and later [[This Shit's Cursed]] in [[The Lost and Damned]] .
-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==
+[[Ray Boccino]] calls [[Niko Bellic]] up and tells him to go to [[Tudor]], [[Alderney]] where he introduces him to [[Pegorino]] associate [[Phil Bell]]. After a brief introduction, Phil asks Ray about a favor. When Ray states that he can't do it, he suggests Niko for the job. Phil takes a chance and explains to Niko that some [[Triads]] have a truck load of [[heroin]] that they think is [[This Shit's Cursed|cursed]] from previous situations, and are looking to offload it at almost any price. Phil wants Niko to head over to the Truck, kill the Triads, take the truck, and bring it to the old mansion to his nephew [[Frankie Gallo]] as a "wedding gift".
-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!
