Gallery Fake for Japanese PSP - Clearance

Original Update: December 29, 2005
«©NCSX» Reiji Fujita once worked at The Metropolitan Museum of Art as an administrative director but because of dastardly circumstances, he was fired. Since his termination, Reiji has started his own gallery in a pedestrian part of town. Known as Gallery Fake, the squat building sits in an industrial district near a pier in Tokyo and is named appropriately for the reproductions of masterpieces that Reiji purveys.
The business would be entirely humdrum were it not for the curator of Takada Museum's accusations against Gallery Fake. Sayako Mitamura asserts that Reiji deals in the resale of stolen paintings and uses Gallery Fake as a clever cover-up to hide illicit transactions. Assisting Reiji at the gallery is Ms Sara Halifa who learns about the art world under Reiji's tutelage and auspicious umbrella.
