This truck can be found almost directly East of the Hammer Defense revealed at the beginning, on an elevated area surrounded by a few civilian buildings (ramp is accessed further south). When approached, the driver will say "Are you from the army? Are you here for the girl?" Then, a strange energy burst (similar to iron curtain's firing effect) comes from the truck and it shakes a bit. What's up with this truck? Who's "the girl?"

My first tought would be that it's an easter egg, and the "girl" is a hostage held in the truck.

There's an unnatural energy burst that rocks the truck though. I thought Libra too, but what would she be doing in a Chinese truck?

The Psicorps don't really have much of a nationality and she could of been transported for some other location to China. Really there isn't much of a reason that she wouldn't be in China, even if there isn't much of a reason why she would.
Of course, it could also be Yunru as Martinoz suggested. The energy burst being one of her inventions. (Although you'd think being confined, she wouldn't have such tools on hand.)

Yunru
Is that an official statement as a team member or speculation? I'm just wondering about the Libra part because I've been hoping that she gets an introduction and explanation on how she came about (maybe even taking part?). Not like Tanya or Morales, where they just show up. She's probably not a lab creation like Volkov or Rahn. Has to have some kind of origin.

So the Chinese don't have her as under control as I originally thought. I knew about her appearance in The Lunatic. Just assumed she was mind controlled (heroes are historically still vulnerable to bigger mind control weapons like beacons and dominators).

*checks Yunru off*
I wonder who, then. Possibly Libra.... I don't know. Maybe she was picked up by the Chinese due to her gifts, and being as secretive and double-crossing as they are, kept it secret from their allies so they could possibly create their own "Yuri equivalent" and not rely on Russia for mind control tech. Yuri by chance discovers her and takes her with when the PsiCorps is leaving the area after handing the beacon over to the rebels. There's my two cents.

There is a slight problem with this: As much as we know Lira, she is not asian, Either by appearance, or by her accent. Ok, perhaps Japanese. But definetaly not Chinese.

Abducted in the Chinese invasion of Japan?

For some reason, I always tought that she is from Europe. I guess it's because her in game voice lacks any typical asian / russian accent.

Accents don't really mean much. Confederation hijackers (will be SC next update but still) have American accents, and the accents of vanilla game units that used to be universal don't all match up with their new subfactions.

As I mentioned, if she's being smuggled around, then she could effectively appear anywhere in the world. There is nothing to say she's from China or Japan. She could be from the Middle East or Eastern Europe and has just been transported this far because she's been kidnapped for some Chinese program.

Yunru doesn't seem to have an Asian accent either, so...
I'm pretty sure it's Libra, since you find the truck with the Epsilon.
