Hiraoka Naoto kidnaps Shinoda Mayu, the grandchild of the ex Deputy Prime Minister Kunitake Yoshikazu, and sends out the ransom letter to 20 media companies. He also calls Mayu's mother, Shinoda Yumi, demanding the same ransom - 1.085 quadrillion yen, the same amount by which the country's budget deficit came to in the previous fiscal year. n his ransom note, Naoto writes, "If this 1.085 quadrillion is given out to the common people, it will help to reduce the inflation caused by the budget deficit. If you cannot raise the money, then by all means, issue a public apology and take responsibility for the economic crisis that we are in now".
