A Slow Boat to <strong>China</strong> 5<br />

Suddenly, Grant spied something peculiar<br />

in <strong>the</strong> seatback pocket. While his sister filled out<br />

her immigrati<strong>on</strong> papers and admired her<br />

passport picture <strong>on</strong>e more time, he gently pulled<br />

a ragged piece <strong>of</strong> old parchment paper out <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

pocket. When he looked closely at it, he grinned.<br />

It was a treasure map, complete with plenty <strong>of</strong><br />

directi<strong>on</strong>s, an X to mark <strong>the</strong> spot where <strong>the</strong><br />

treasure could be found, and even a skull and<br />

crossb<strong>on</strong>es warning. Or was that a drag<strong>on</strong>?<br />

Quickly, Grant folded <strong>the</strong> map and tucked<br />

it his pocket. He smiled a little secret smile.<br />

Wait until Christina, Li, and C<strong>on</strong>g see this! Of<br />

course, it is all in Chinese, but that will make <strong>the</strong><br />

mystery even more fun to solve—w<strong>on</strong>’t it?
