A very peaceful beach.

Haha, hoho. Happy sounds are heard from all directions.

In a situation where I didn’t know when or what event would happen, I saw a little child walking alone.

Wearing a one-piece swimsuit and a white short-sleeved T-shirt over it, she looked quite cute with her bangs pulled up and tied up.

However, a suspicious-looking man began to quickly approach the child.

Judging by the fact that he was wearing a suit at the beach and the tattoo on his neck was slightly visible, it was obvious that he was not a nice person.

The moment the suspicious man grabbed the child’s wrist, the child was startled and tried to run away, but the suspicious man did not let go of his hand.

I immediately ran to the suspicious man and strongly grabbed the wrist of the man holding the child’s hand.

“What are you doing?”

The suspicious man looked at me and opened his mouth. The tone of voice clearly showed anger.

Looking closer, the suspicious man looked even more suspicious. What on earth could they possibly be doing in broad daylight like this to kidnap a child like this?

“Let’s go and do it.”

A suspicious man who keeps talking. As I don’t know Japanese, I couldn’t understand what they were saying.

But I feel like it’s not a good situation at all.

I was wondering what to do with this.

Tiring.

[Granted ‘talent’ ‘Japanese’.]

The swing bridge app appeared before my eyes. It also has very good news.

The next talent to remain calm was none other than Japanese.

“Just go on your way. Don’t you understand?”

It was obviously Japanese, but I understood everything it meant in my head. Just like I knew from the beginning.

“Ha. Are you Chinese? I don’t know how to speak Chinese.”

It is also a swing bridge app. I understand Japanese as naturally as Korean, and how to say it comes to mind naturally.

But Chinese? You’re crossing a lot of lines.

“You’re Korean, not Chinese.”

“What is it? You knew how to speak Japanese, right? Then why did you ignore it at first?”

“That doesn’t matter, what business does this little kid have? I want you to let go of that hand first.”

The little boy, who was still struggling to get away from the suspicious man, shouted.

“Please help!”

As soon as I heard those words, I strongly squeezed the suspicious man’s wrist.

“Lady!? Whoa, whoa! What kind of power!”

As soon as the little boy released his hands, he started running.

“Are you done with this?”

“Haa···. Damn it!”

The suspicious man sighed as he saw the little boy walking away, took out his cell phone, and walked to another place.

Who are you calling?

The suspicious man disappeared and soon after, the little boy who had run away appeared in front of me.

“Thank you uncle.”

The little boy was smiling brightly, and his teeth were slightly sticking out of his mouth, which was quite cute.

But you crossed the line.

Isn’t it true that these kids are also uncles?

“Little one, where are your parents?”

“Sorry, I’m not a kid!”

“Not a kid?”

Am I older than I thought? Right now, I have to make a lot of effort to look like a middle school student, but in reality, I’m a high school student?

“Even if you look like this, you’re 21 years old.”

“Huh?”

I picked my ear with my little finger.

“Children, you must not make fun of adults.”

“Miss! No kid! 21 years old! 21 years old!”

The little boy moved the small bag on his back to the front, took something out of it and held it out to me.

“Look at this!”

What appeared before my eyes was none other than an ID card. There was a My Number, which is the same as a resident registration number, and a photo ID.

‘Are you really an adult with this face, this body, this voice?’

“How about it? mister. You know I’m an adult, right? Hehe~”

“I understand that. Kid, no ha, lu, ka? Haruka. I am not a man.”

It is understandable for a child to just look at an adult and say “mister,” but now that he knows that he is an adult. I can’t forgive this little woman named Haruka for calling me uncle.

“You’re not the uncle…? Really?”

“I’m 23 years old. 23 years old. Not Mr.”

I am presbyopic. It’s presbyopia, though.

I took a deep breath and asked about what happened earlier.

“Ah~ He’s my bodyguard. A bodyguard following me around!”

“Bodyguard…? A bodyguard?”

No, that suspicious man was not a kidnapper but a bodyguard? So, does that mean that the reason you grabbed Haruka’s wrist now was because she was trying to escape from the security guard’s eyes?

“No, I want to play alone. It was annoying because the bodyguard my dad assigned kept following me.”

I wonder what kind of family would have enough wealth to give Guille’s daughter the title of Constable. But if I had a lot of money and a daughter like Haruka, I think I would hire a bodyguard.

No matter how I look at it, I can’t see that the Haruka in front of me is an adult.

My height is 185cm, but if you look at my chest, my height cannot exceed 150cm no matter how high I look at it.

The hairstyle I have now makes me feel even younger. Even a small body and cute face. No matter how you look at it, he looks like a middle school student.

While I was thinking, suddenly! I felt it.

It’s the same feeling back then. I realized that the target of this quest was Haruka, a 21-year-old who looked like she was 12 right now in front of me.

“By the way, uncle, what is your name?”

“Hyeonbeom. Call me Hyeonbeom.”

“Unspoken?”

“Hyun.”

“Huh.”

“Beom.”

“Bum?”

“Hyeonbeom.”

“Tongue unbearable.”

Let’s give up.

“Yes.”

“Are you surprised here?”

“I came here to play.”

“You came, right? Does that mean not now?”

“Yes. That means no. I’m waiting now.”

“What are you waiting for?”

“This and that.”

“Wow~ It’s really boring.”

“Ugh.”

“You don’t have a girlfriend, right? Well, it’s hard to keep that face.”

“No, what about my face…”

“It’s not that he’s ugly, but do you think he’ll be too much of a passerby?”

“I have a girlfriend.”

“eh~? really? Is it really there? Show me! Show me!”

This kid, no woman. The tension is too high. I don’t know why I’m suddenly saying this, and I feel like I’m losing my temper.

It doesn’t seem like he needs my help. From what I’ve heard, it seems like he has a father, and if he even has a bodyguard, he must be quite wealthy.

no. In the first place, when something like a disaster occurs, who doesn’t need help?

First, to get to know Haruka, I took out my cell phone and showed it to her.

On the background screen was a selfie of Hyebin and I together.

“Wow~ It’s pretty! Very pretty! Sugoi! Wow, is your girlfriend Korean?”

“I’m Korean. No, I’m Korean too.”

“? really? Really?”

“Then I thought you were from some country.”

“Of course I thought you were from our country. I’m really good at Japanese.”

“Are you good at it?”

Thanks to the swing bridge app, I was able to talk to Haruka naturally in Japanese without any problems.

“Honestly, I speak Japanese better than most Japanese people! I never thought you were from another country! But where did you leave your girlfriend here, alone?”

“Um···.”

There are many reasons, but it is difficult to explain them here and now.

“You had a fight? You came all the way to Japan and fought. The language was bad.”

While I was talking with Haruka, a text message came on my phone screen.

[Hyeonbeom. I got on a plane to Korea. Don’t worry, we’ll come back safely and without getting hurt. Don’t forget to do it all day when you get back.]

I responded right away.

“You’re really Korean. Interesting. How do you speak Japanese so well? Have you lived in Japan? Or are you working in Japan? I’m curious!”

“Not at all. I just came to Japan to have fun.”

“Hey~ But you’re this good? Awesome!”

While I was talking with Hakura, a strong wind blew that had never blown before. It was not a cool breeze on a hot day, but a cool breeze.

“Ugh. What~”

Haruka stroked her arms with both hands. I’m sure it should feel good when the wind blows in this weather, but I got goosebumps all over my body.

Although the various sounds made by people playing were quite loud, so many birds began to fly that the chirping of birds could be heard.

Clearly an abnormal phenomenon.

The moment everyone was paying no attention, I felt a vibration beneath my feet.

Very slight vibration. The vibration was at a level that I would not have felt if it were not for my senses that had been sharpened by the swinging bridge app.

That kind of vibration little by little. Just as it was about to get louder, a loud rumbling sound was heard from near the beach.

“What is it? What is it?”

The moment Haruka turned around and looked towards the beach, I saw with my own eyes an abnormal phenomenon occurring on the beach.

The sea is disappearing.

No, it’s falling out. It was disappearing in an instant at an unbelievable speed.

People who were swimming in the sea began to drift away, and people rushed forward to save them, causing chaos in an instant.

No matter how you look at it, it is a precursor to a tsunami.

I screamed as loud as I could.

“Everyone, evacuate!!!”

“?”

Haruka still can’t come to her senses. The vibrations felt in the floor were now shaking enough that anyone could sense them.

The sea, which had disappeared in an instant, was rushing back onto the beach at an incredible height, as seen with the naked eye.

I picked up Haruka, who was still unconscious, and ran as far away from the beach as possible, yelling at her to run away.

“What, what!? Tsunami!?”

“Tsunami!”

A huge sound of nature that I had never heard before followed me from behind. The people’s screams were drowned out, approaching at an unbelievable speed, and I turned my head.

The sea, which had a beautiful blue color, turned black as if it had swallowed up death and engulfed me and Haruka.
