It's brand new stuff, the doctor didn't even know it can be synthesised, so why would it be an illegal substance?
They could have just packaged it as "chinese internet health crap" or even just have shown it to customs "yep this is CPH4, some new stuff, it's not illegal yet, kthxbye".
And not only that, but if they made this, they can make more. All you have to do is mix it into the blood stream, so there could be an army of Lucys.
shareBecause even the synthesized version would be like transporting a bodily product. Since the black-market in stolen organs is far more prevalent in certain Eastern countries, naturally sniffer dogs are taught to spot things in far-east airport checkpoints that may be human body parts or bodily fluids. Simple.
Besides, legally harvested organs or liquids are transported through airports in a completely different way -- not through baggage claims, which would obviously arouse suspicion.
The oddest thing to me was the lengths the gangsters went to to get their product back. No drug dealer in the world would bust into government buildings guns blazing to get 3 packets back when they could just make more. Have you ever heard of a drug dealer break into a police station to get back their confiscated material? You just take the loss and move on.
