Chapter 69. MAGNETS

Garreth walks Tito through the plan for sealing the bullet holes he intends to create in the shipping container with nine small (about 3 inch diameter) magnetic discs painted dark turquoise to match the color of the container. Tito will need to climb to the container and use the magnets to hide the holes while wearing a black face mask, careful to not inhale anything. Tito is distracted by Hollis’s presence but prepares for the mission ahead. [446 characters]
