…the seed of the disaster had been planted and was
growing gradually without being detected. Somewhere in
the earth, somewhere, the footsteps of an extreme danger
were approaching us quietly. Nobody knew that at all.
Even experts and researchers of the earthquake did
not know. Only the demon of the sea knew it with
a creepy smile on its face.
