Chapter 8: Hello Roanopur
~One week later~
"It's been since I was discharged from the US Military and I've just been spending my time as best I could. After coming back Jackie started to show me around the old neighborhood and I've been doing whatever work I could get. When I got back I immediately started doing jobs for Uncle Lee again, but business was slow and most days I just spent helping my mother and the noodle shop. Until one day, Uncle Lee was gonna give me my one-way ticket to hell."
"Lee had called me over to his place that day, said was about some very important business." Rock went inside Uncle Lee's penthouse and sat on the couch. Soon Lee came out and greeted Rock and said, "Alright Rokuro, I'm going to be straight with you… Do you know anything about cocaine?"
"I was surprised to hear this coming from Uncle Lee. But, yes, I did know about cocaine, and meth, and the drug trade. Ever since I joined the Sun Yee On I had seen lots of deals go good and some just completely fucked up. But I knew enough to at least get me in and out of it alive."
"Well you see Rock… our brothers in Thailand have ordered a large shipment of coke, 5 tons to be exact and they need it to be delivered to a city called, Roanopur. Have you heard of the place?" Rock nodded but kept listening. "Well seeing as you have a lot of experience and you know how to handle this sort of thing, I want you to go to Roanopur and deliver the shipment. Do you think you can handle it?"
"Yes Uncle… I can ensure the delivery of the coke but… I don't think that carrying that amount of cocaine is safe" said Rock. "Well of course it's not safe, which is why I've called ahead and Mr. Chang, the head of the Hong Kong Triad over in Roanopur has arranged for some transportation to meet you there. So what do you say Rock will you do it?"
"Yes I will" answered Rock
"Very well we rented out a private hangar at the airport there will be a plane all loaded up with the coke waiting for you and enough fuel to make the trip. Here are the coordinates it's some island city off the coast of Thailand."
"With that I got in my car and drove off. As I was coming up on the airport I couldn't help but think 'What the FUCK, have I gotten myself into?' I was just a random guy who was about to go to one of the most crime infested cities in the world carrying 5 tons of cocaine, just to deliver it to some guy I've never met? "
As Rock drove up to the hangar he immediately saw the plane and met up with some guys who were loading up the drugs. "Is it all loaded up?" asked Rock. "Yes sir everything you need to make the trip" answered one of the workers.
With that Rock got into the cockpit of the airplane, it was a decent sized plane with twin rotors and water-landing gear. With that Rock set the coordinates to Roanopur and took off.
"Well… goodbye New York… Hello Roanopur"
