Bad Pimpin'
Asuka tells Mike she has the information he needs, but needs him to kill a pimp who has been messing with her girls before she'll hand it over.
Asuka | Mike-san, I have the information you've been waiting for. It's about the bomber who had his dealings with your partner Vinnie. There is, however, one thing you must do before I give you this information. There's a pimp in town who's been stalking my working girls and causing havoc to my hostess business. Take him out and then report back here for the information I promised. |

Mike | All this trouble over one pimp? Why don't you send one of your regular goons? And what the hell is a snack bar? |
Asuka | This guy's no pushover and my people are having to deal mostly with the gang war between the Mafia and us. In Japan, snack bars are hostess clubs where you can go to get a quick nibble and sing karaoke. |
Mike | I still don't see what snacks, girls, and karaoke have to do with each other but whatever. Very well I'll do this but it's the last job I do for you, Asuka. After this, I'm going my own way. |
Asuka | I don't see how you can live without me, Mike-san. We'll see what happens. |
Once outside, grab a vehicle and make your way East to the pimps location, then exit your car and walk into the blue circle on foot.
Soon after parking up, one of the girls yells out for help.
A number of the pimps bodyguards will now attack you. Thankfully they're about as deadly as random pedestrians and they'll all go down with a single shotgun blast. After killing the first bodyguard, another of the prostitutes will speak up.
Kill more of the bodyguards and then take out the main pimp, who again won't put up much resistance to a shotgun blast.
Once they're all dead, a third prostitute will have something to say.
Mike will receive a message from Asuka asking him to hurry back to her.
Head into the blue circle on foot when you reach her mansion.
Asuka | Mike-san, you've satisfied every desire I've asked of you. I have one last request before you leave me, perhaps forever. |
---|---|
Mike | No, Asuka! I haven't any patience for more negotiation. Tell me about the bomber and then I'm out of here! |
Asuka | Mike-san, be a good boy and listen. I've lusted for you from the moment I saw you. Come to me in my bedchamber... Unless, that is, you're not attracted to the opposite sex? |
Mike | No man can resist that challenge. Lead on... Leave the whips on the wall though. |
Seems Asuka finally got her wish and took Mike to bed. Once outside, he has some thoughts.
You now need to make your way to the bomber, so head East from your position ad walk into the blue circle when you arrive.
A cutscene kicks in where a dead body is found.
Mike | Damn, what a mess. Looks like somebody beat me to him. What the hell am I going to do now? Wait a second, there's a message on his pager: 'I need another job like the Callahan Point bombing. Meet me on Shoreside in the Wichita Garden District.' Callahan Point? Sounds like he's talking about the car bomb that killed Vinnie. Well, this is the only lead I have. I'd better go check it out. |

After leaving the crime scene, Mike receives a message telling him the Mafia know he was behind their men being captured, so he should flee to Shoreside Vale.
Make your way North then to the West to the bridge to Shoreside Vale. You'll have 2 minutes to get there.
A few seconds later, Asuka informs you the police think you killed the bomber so they're after you too, which ends up with a 4-star wanted level.
Don't worry about going to the Pay 'n' Spray or trying to lose it, just make your way to the bridge as quickly as you can.
Drive across the bridge until you hit the halfway point and the game transports you into Shoreside Vale for the first time.
Mission Passed!
Upon arrival in Shoreside Vale, you'll receive a pager message telling you to meet "XOX" at the North of the island.
A few seconds later, you'll receive another pager message, this time from Cisco, who says you're heading for a trap and wants Mike to visit him at the airport instead.
