The Bullet Train

Tetsuo Okita is a former businessman who lost his manufacturing company to bankruptcy and separated from his wife and son a year earlier. Desperate to make ends meet and start over, he collaborates with activist Masaru Koga and his former employee Hiroshi Ōshiro in an elaborate plot to extort money from the government. Okita demands US$5 million in an aluminum suitcase in exchange for the safety of Hikari 109's passengers. Police officials back in Tokyo are tasked to either find the bomber or the bomb first.
