Kanari and Karlis, two siblings with a shared passion for unraveling the tapestry of human history, lead intellectually stimulating lives dedicated to preserving and sharing the knowledge of humanity's past.Kanari, the elder sister, immerses herself in the field of archeology, conducting research at a non-governmental organization (NGO). Together with her younger brother, she co-manages an online antique bookstore, a platform through which they explore and celebrate the rich heritage of mankind.In contrast, Karlis is a devoted high school biology teacher who derives immense joy from imparting knowledge about the marvels of the world to his students.

One day, as Kanari was preparing for an organization event, she stumbled upon a pair of mismatched earrings that the store owner was eager to offload. Without hesitation, she purchased them and graciously gave the red earring to Karlis. Inspired by this gesture, Kanari accompanied her brother to have his ears pierced, a symbolic act cementing the strong bond they shared as siblings.In another lighthearted moment, Kanari jestingly remarked on Karlis's unruly dog-bite hairstyle, playfully teasing him about his appearance in an educational setting.
“Are you planning on being a fuck boy or a teacher? Tell me.”
Karlis, never one to back down, retaliated by poking fun at his sister's hair, humorously likening her dyed locks to a cockroach with three red antennae, leading to a good-humored squabble over their hairstyles.
Motivated by their shared commitment to safeguarding human memories and the joint operation of their online bookstore, the two siblings traverse their journey of anthropological discovery hand in hand, cherishing every moment spent in each other's company.

Kei, a nine-tailed fox originating from Japan, sought refuge in China, assuming different identities to escape from his past. His life took an unexpected turn when he encountered Zi Líng, a half-demon, on his way home from work. Little did they know that this fateful meeting would irrevocably alter the course of their lives, embarking them on a journey fraught with complexities and challenges.
Zi Líng, with his crimson red eyes inherited from his demonic lineage, carried with him a tumultuous family history. His ancestors had walked the path of demons, but his father, brother, and mother were ordinary, subjected to mistreatment and abuse because of their demonic heritage. In a tragic turn of events, Líng, overwhelmed by the cruelty he and his family endured, resorted to an unthinkable act - he took the lives of his family. It was in the aftermath of this distressing event that Kei stumbled upon him, lying in the corner of a secluded alley, setting the wheels of change in motion.
As they navigate the maze of complexities and truths, Kei and Líng find solace in each other's company, bound by their shared past and their unyielding resolve to confront their demons and carve out a brighter future together.
