You have been contacted by Nobel prize winning economist Dr. Goodman to meet him at a rundown bar. There, he explains to you that the true cause of inflation is a secret religion called the Gregarines led by Akbar D'Eville. Based out of Hong Kong, they have been using their financial backing to cause inflation throughout the world, thus making all currencies worthless. With that, they will establish their own currency, the Liroon, as preeminent throughout the world, and seize power. Shortly after sharing this information with you, Dr. Goodman is murdered with a jade dagger to his chest. Framed for this crime, you must travel to Hong Kong, prove your innocence, and defeat the Gregarines' nefarious plot.
