[konekoのおもちゃ箱]英訳化①Find your best star
I decided to work for
an agricultural organization,
and finally my job hunting was over.
From next year, I will be living alone
for the first time.
I have to find a place to live in
before I start it, so I go see my teacher
to get some advise about my new house.
"Oh, in that case,
you'd better go this real estate agent.
The owner is so kind."
Through his advice, I got a hunch.
That is, there is an real estate
named at an old signboard
"Energy Real Estate"
along the way of my school,
and I looked it everyday.
Thus, he must be talking about there.

Find the best star for you
I arrived there and hit a glass door lightly .
Rattle ... A raccoon father wearing glasses
came out from inside.
He said, "Are you a student?
Are you looking for something
near the school?"
I explained to him that
I will be a member of society and
looking for a house near my workplace.
Then, he talked me
it seems that there are good place to live,
and we decided to go see them together.
[Introduction]
Winter stars far from the sun
We got off the spaceship.
It's cold all year round,
but it's well-heated and
the way of sun is appropriate.
Besides, you can get many sunlight.
There is plenty of water
and also the sea.
Moreover, some lands are
suitable for agriculture.
"Since there is a bath,
it's a good planet for living alone."
There was a volcano from which
a hot spring blew up, so
we take a foot bath.
Ahh.... It's truly comfortable.
It seems that I can take a rest here
while gazing at the starry sky.
"There are also
convenience store planets nearby.
OK! It's time for you to
introduce the landlord."
The real estate agent
gets out of the foot bath
and starts calling by phone.
Soon after, a grandfather of
a good-looking cat who seems
to be a landlord came over.
"Hey, Thanks to come,
Although this planet is old,
you may feel relax to live in."
Certainly, it was a little
old-fashioned planet.
There are also large clacks
everywhere on the surface.
According to the story,
it is 7 billion years old,
and there is a little abnormality
in the core inside the planet.
However, it seems that
repairs are done on a regular basis,
and he wants to keep it a little more.
The landlord put the mug
he had in front of us
while talking about such a thing.
And then a warm drink is poured there.
It smelled a bittersweet.
"This is called coffee,
it used to be drunk on the planet Earth."
The Earth is the star of the Middle Ages,
which was found in textbooks.
According to the landlord,
several fossils of the planet came out
from it's desert, and there were
coffee seeds in it.
Therefore, they pulled out the genes
and cultivated them.
"Was the earth broken in 10 billion years?
It was a small star, but It had done its best.
I think this planet will be kept
another 3 billion years."
I'm wondering if it will be reformed
or vacated, but I'm glad if you live.
After all, if nobody is there,
the planet will be ruined immediately. "
A cat , no landlord talked over
a cup of lukewarm coffee.
Under the cold sky, we took a relax
while enjoying a foot bath.
"So, how about it? Student.
If you also want to do agriculture,
I think it must be great for you.
Are you going to decide to live here?"
On the way for the spaceship,
talking to the raccoon father
of a real estate agent,
I see the floor plan of the planet.
It seems lonely to live alone,
but it is not bad to spend my time
to this winter land while developing it.
I want to grow coffee beans as well.
"Yeah, but maybe
I want to see other stars too."
My journey to find the best star is
likely to be continued.
