An 82-year-old woman, Toshiko Yanagawa, who owns 40,000 hectares of forest and land worth 70 billion yen, is kidnapped and held hostage by three audacious young men. They demand a ransom of 50 million yen for her release, to which Toshiko Yanagawa furiously responds, "Make it 10 billion yen instead, to avoid embarrassing my descendants." The bewildered young men, in a twist of fate, plead with Yanagawa to lower the amount, but she confidently begins to orchestrate this "kidnapping battle." Police Chief Ikigari requests to broadcast a live TV meeting between Yanagawa and her family to confirm her safety. Yanagawa cleverly directs the broadcast van to a nearby mountain for a distant encounter, instructing her family via TV to sell the forest and land to raise funds. 10 billion yen is loaded onto a helicopter, and Yanagawa uses a diversion to shake off the police, directing the aircraft to deliver the money to a designated location. Upon safely returning home, Yanagawa reflects that after her death, 70% of her wealth will be taken by the state as inheritance tax; thus, being kidnapped for 10 billion could save that wealth from taxation. This is the true reason she took advantage of the kidnapping opportunity to make a staged situation real.
