  2. Confront Cyprus Phil in Northeast City, then kill him.

  4. Take down Harold Cartwright.
  5. Steal Harold’s Locust from behind his flat in East City.

Dead Certainty: Phonebox 2: Mission 2 walkthrough

Cyprus Phil

Go to Northeast City and find Cyprus Phil on foot. He denies knowing where Harold is, and Albert orders you to kill him. This stage is short, so use a pistol or machine gun and then leave before the police respond. Let the conversation play out, then act when the objective changes.

Beryl

Albert then sends you to Harold’s sister Beryl in Central Soho. She also denies knowing anything, and you get the same order. Park near the marker and go on foot, as the streets there are crowded and the car can get stuck. Stay out of the middle of the road, and keep your weapon ready as soon as the objective updates.

Take down Harold

Archie has traced Harold: he is trying to leave London in the back of a mate’s green Myni that is driving around South Hyde Park. Find the Myni and blow it up with Harold in it. Explosives or heavy fire both work, so use what you carry. Check the map arrow often, since the Myni keeps moving and may turn off the main road.

Fetch the Locust

Albert wants Harold’s red Locust, which is parked behind his flat in East City, as he thinks the drugs are hidden inside. Steal it and take it to the garage in East Mile End while avoiding the police. The Locust is parked at the rear of the flat, so approach from the side street.

What fails this mission

Besides dying or being arrested, the mission ends if any of these happen:

  • Cyprus Phil is killed before you confront him
  • Beryl is killed before you confront her
  • Harold Cartwright’s Locust is destroyed

After the mission

The Locust is empty, so Harold never took the drugs, but Albert does not mind. You earn 4,750 points and a higher multiplier.
