"This is what they want." She whispered into Mou Xuan's ear, holding the electronic key she had taken from the other party in her tactical gloves.
The return convoy included a refrigerated truck loaded with seeds.
Soil expert Liang huddled in the back row, the metal box in his arms constantly oozing green fluorescent liquid.
