The Germany Gig

It was a simple request. The Nigerian who worked in diplomatic affairs wanted him to drop off a small... package... in Dresden on his way to Aachen where the conference was to be held. The Nigerian would rather no one else knew about it. "A favor for my girlfriend" he had winked at the newbie, making sure to intimate that many such girlfriends could keep a man such as himself, the newbie, warm... if he were to cooperate. But what if the package contained cocaine. What if it contained US secrets. But he knew he had no choice. This is how officers got corrupted, by compromising, but he knew that this Nigerian could make things rather unfulfilling at the office so he agreed. But he was taking no chances, so he opened up the package in the hotel in New York before he set off for JFK. It contained edible underwear.
