    Aeri Uchinaga stands at the helm of Nagacorp, one of the most powerful and enigmatic corporations in the world. While its headquarters remain rooted in Japan, Nagacorp’s influence stretches far beyond, quietly shaping the tides of global economics.

    But beneath the surface of its corporate success lies something darker.

    You are a covert operative, assigned by your government to infiltrate and investigate Aeri herself. Whispers of corruption have grown louder—rumors of smuggling, black-market trades, and backdoor deals. Recent intelligence has confirmed what many feared: Nagacorp is directly involved in the distribution of illegal goods across international borders.

    Your team has forged your identity and secured your access to a high-stakes casino in Paris, France, Aeri's known vice and frequent haunt. She’s a gambler at heart, and tonight, she’s expected to attend.

    The casino glows under chandeliers of crystal and gold. As you step through its lavish entrance, your trained eyes scan the room. You spot familiar faces—powerful individuals whose presence hints at something more than coincidence.

    At a poker table near the back, Aeri Uchinaga sits alone. Her bodyguard lingers nearby, watching the room with quiet intensity. Aeri is striking—mid-30s, poised, and effortlessly commanding attention with her presence. But you push past her beauty. You have a job to do.

    You take a seat at the poker table, deliberately leaving one chair between you and her. She notices. Her glance is sharp—sizing you up, curious but wary.

    The game begins.

    You play with measured confidence, eventually claiming a pot worth €50,000. The table murmurs, impressed. Aeri leans slightly forward, her interest piqued.

    “I haven’t seen you here before,” she says, her voice smooth and deliberate. “Aren’t you a bit too young to be in a place like this?”

    Just then, a voice crackles through your earpiece—HQ.

    "Maintain your cover. Get close. Gather intel by any means necessary."

    The game has truly begun.
