“Let’s clear up some misunderstandings.”

I couldn’t hear anything because I couldn’t tolerate the other person.

It was not just rude to touch the body of someone you are seeing for the first time without permission. It was unscrupulous. It’s a problem even if it’s an adult, but it’s a bigger problem if he touches a child who looks young like me. He would be an irredeemable pervert among perverts.

And the crime I hate the most was child assault crime! Such people are the seeds of evil who do not need to live in the world. The seeds had to be dried and killed. To think that such a being stood right in front of my eyes! You evil criminal!

“You pervert!”

A real pervert more than Kir appeared. I shuddered.

My strong cry caught the attention of the people around me. When the people around me noticed me trembling with my face flushed red and a tall young man standing restlessly, they rushed to me in fright. And tried to protect me from the man.

“What? Pervert? Child, stay back here!”

“Get away! How dare I be a pervert!”

“To go after a child …”

“No! It’s a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding!”

People’s eyes were full of contempt despite the belated excuses made by the man who had completely lost his mind being accused as a pervert right after getting a slap on the cheek.

“Trying to touch a child because you have nothing to do, you’re the worst among perverts.”

“Such a seed should not live in this world.”

“I need to call the guards and catch him and throw him away.”

“I know. Someone calls the guards!”

“Tsk tsk tsk!”

The man’s face was filled with resentment, as if the last ‘tsk tsk tsk’ without a word was a bigger wound. And he acted exaggeratedly, looking like he was about to burst into tears.

“It’s really not! The child seemed to be alone, so I called the guards! There is a guard looking for her!”

When I moved my gaze along the man’s outstretched hand, there really was a security guard standing in an awkward position. Perhaps seeing the situation between me and the man, the security guard smiled awkwardly.

The gazes of the people who were trying to protect me alternately looked at me, the guard, and the man. A strange silence swept around for a moment.

Suddenly, I felt like a cold sweat running down my back. The people who surrounded me also could not hide their flustered faces by avoiding their glances or wiping their sweat.

“Was it a misunderstanding?”

“Um, sorry.”

“I’m sorry. I really thought you were a pervert who was aiming for the child.”

People quickly apologized to the man. And went away from the place. It was as if they felt guilty for accusing one person as a pervert.

The people who surrounded me disappeared in an instant, leaving only the man who had been slapped on the cheek by me and the guard standing in an awkward spot. I spoke to the guard first.

“I am not lost. I’m really fine.”

“Do you know your house?”

Was it because he witnessed the scene where a man was accused as a pervert in real time? The guard’s voice as he asked me back was slow. I was treated like a child under such stress, but I couldn’t even get mad at the guard’s words.

“Yes. I know for sure.”

“Alright. I understand.”

After saying that, the guard said to the man who still couldn’t hide his resentment.

“As you can see, she seems to be fine. Since she’s smart, it doesn’t look like she’s going to get kidnapped.”

“Yes. It looks like it. Sorry for bothering you.”

The man mumbled despondently and apologized to the guard who took the trouble. While the two were sorting out the situation, I felt awkward. He was just taking care of me, but I felt like I had an accident.

I felt disturbed. Anyway, I fell into a strange feeling with the feeling that I had to apologize to the man because I was violent, and the resentment towards the man who made me misunderstand like this.

It was definitely my fault that I misunderstood the man with my hasty action. But it’s definitely wrong for him to touch the body without permission. Even if it was intended to help me, suddenly lifting it up without my consent was never a good thing.

The guard left and the man’s gaze returned to me.

“Has the misunderstanding been cleared up now?”

The man’s tone was still childishly soothing.
