Former Prime Minister Abe's local office in Shimonoseki City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, was visited by supporters and others one after another on the 9th, one night after the incident.
After expressing their condolences to the staff of the office, the visitors wrote their names in the office and put their hands together with the flowers in front of the entrance.
A supporter, a man in his 70s, said, "I was hoping for success in the future, but I'm very sad and disappointed. I think he was loved by everyone because he was a friendly person and he seemed to appear alone. It wasn't a feeling, but a person who treated me from the same perspective as us. "
A man in his thirties said, "I'm shocked. I met Mr. Abe several times during the election, but he was kind and pleasant."
