Ye Shuangcrow.
A beautiful translator who is as cool as a fairy meets a mysterious and evil uncle (actually an elder brother) who always helps him.
The other person has something that the two crows don't have: a seductive appearance. A job that is stable and full of technology. And a faint smile that is still elegant and unsurprised despite seeing people being unpredictable.
Moreover, he is very kind to the two crows. It's sincere.
But the better it is, the more eerie it makes Shuangcrow feel. Because - even though they look so pure and innocent, the two crows harbor a dark secret that cannot be told:
Ever since he was born, he has had a private alien space that has always been with him.
The senses of the two crows are connected to an ethereal and swaying sea of another world. Stars are submerged in the sea water, and fat and soft tentacles stretch out from the sea, singing sweet and ethereal songs like children.
Sometimes when he is depressed, the tentacles will sing to the crows, or accompany him through the evening tide, calming his mind under the stars.
This is a favor given to him by another world.
But, that's all.
Different spaces are more often a sudden and uncontrollable nightmare:
The sea surface suddenly surged with wind and clouds, and the tentacles surged up furiously, stirring up huge whirlpools and tearing apart all his senses.
The looming door in the sea slowly opened, and the building with flashing blood seemed to be sucking him in——
Let Shuangcrow's five senses fall into chaos. Regardless of time or occasion, regardless of whether he has important things to do in reality:
For example, interpreting for a high-profile conference. For example, entrance exams.
Or, when Double Crow was crossing the road, an out-of-control car rushed toward him——
He has to work harder than others to get even a little closer to his dream.
He had to be brave and try his best to lead a so-called "ordinary" life.
So how could Shuangya, who harbored such hidden pain, believe in any free gift.
My beautiful and elegant uncle, it's better not to see him.
The quiet and peaceful gentle countryside is still forgotten.
——But what if I believe him.
——If I firmly believe that he is what I want.

Here are some translation quotes:
As we all know, some unscrupulous translators can do very bad things:
For example. Halfway through the French movie, the subtitles suddenly said: I'm sorry, I don't understand French, and the above plot is all nonsense.
Another example: When I was an interpreter, because my pronunciation was unclear, I called beach a bitch. (Facing guests visiting the beach, shouting What a bitch!)
Or even if it is not unscrupulous, the translation world is full of paradoxes.
A mixed-race person from the Heilongjiang area works as a Russian translator. Blonde and blue-eyed, he looks forward to the world, but when he speaks Chinese, he smells like a fool: "Why are you so stupid? You send (eight) people to a project, it's such a nonsense."
Another example is the following dialogue (written normally in Chinese, distinguished by [] in foreign languages):
Chinese customer: "Isn't this just an antique fan? You're trying to bully me by selling it to me for 8,000 yuan. I won't buy it!"
The translator translated: "[Seller, your fan is good, but it's not top quality. It's worth three thousand at most. Do you want to sell it?]"
The foreign seller was angry: "[This fan of mine is a tribute obtained by robbing my ancestor's tomb two hundred years ago! I didn't lie to you!]"
After a moment, he sighed: "[Oh, but I'm short of money recently. Do you want to sell it to you at a loss of 4,500!]"
Interpreter (said to the employer): "He said that because of your good looks, he would sell it to a suitable person for 4,500."
Customer: "Oh?"
Customer: "Yeah!!"
Intention: sincerity.
