Introduction: A Seemingly Ordinary Field Trip

The train, known as the "Dream Train," is fast. It can travel from Tokyo to Hokkaido in four hours. The students and staff board the train, ready for their journey.
A Deadly Phone Call: The Train Bomb Plot Unfolds
After leaving the station, the control room gets a scary call. A man claims to have planted a bomb on the train. He says it will explode if the train slows down below 100 km/h.
The call is cut off, causing panic. The staff quickly act. The train explodes, confirming the threat. This sets off a crisis across the network.
National Crisis: Japan on the Brink
With the train in danger, officials spring into action. Atsuki, a top security coordinator, takes charge. He orders the train's control to be switched to manual to keep it above 100 km/h.
All stations along the train's path are warned. The train can't stop. Matsuo, the train's captain, is told to follow Atsuki's instructions to save lives.
Mr. Taka explains a fake reason for skipping stops to avoid panic. Passengers enjoy the ride, unaware of the danger.
Behind the Scenes: Coordinated Mayhem and National Demands
The crisis deepens as the bomber demands 100 billion yen. He offers to give instructions to defuse the bomb in exchange. He suggests a nationwide fundraising effort.
The government is in chaos. Saki, a high-ranking advisor, joins the crisis team. He pushes for honesty with passengers, calling it a test of resolve. Despite resistance, Mr. Taka tells the passengers the truth, causing chaos.
Fear takes over the train. Passengers panic and argue. Meanwhile, the Prime Minister refuses to negotiate with terrorists, angering the bomber.
Psychological Tensions Rise: Viral Videos and Old Scars
The bomber releases a video online, showing bomb locations and reiterating his demands. Public pressure grows. Citizens criticize the government for risking lives.
Inside the train, tensions are high. One passenger recognizes Captain Goto, a pilot blamed for a disaster. Accusations start, and things get violent. Mr. Taka tries to calm things down.
Goto asks someone to pull the emergency alarm for help. A passenger agrees, setting off a loud siren. This alarm shakes everyone's nerves.
This alarm almost made the train stop, a close call. Matsuo tells Taka that everything is okay, for now.
Government Intervention: Sacrifices and Strategy
