Masaharu Aoyagi, a former delivery-truck driver in the city of Sendai, is unemployed. Two years ago he achieved brief notoriety for rescuing a local actress from a robbery attempt while making a delivery to her apartment. Now he is back in the spotlight this time as the main suspect in the assassination of a newly elected prime minister who had come to Sendai for a hometown victory parade.
