A few weeks ago, the virus crossed the Pacific Ocean and reached my city on a large scale. Many people became ill and many lives were lost. A huge shadow enveloped the previously beautiful and carefree city.
几个星期前，病毒跨越太平洋，大规模抵达了我所在的城市，很多人病了，很多生命失去了，一个巨大的阴影，笼罩在这之前还无忧无虑的美丽城市。
I saw the incarnation of the virus. It is a red devil, wearing its new red crown, sneering over the city, it is planning a larger-scale meat feast.
我看到了病毒的化身，这是一个红色的魔鬼，戴着它的红色新冠，在城市上空狞笑，它在谋划着更大规模的肉宴。
But right now it looks human and innocent. It said, “I came here just to make people live happier lives! You must have seen it: In China, people are feeling so happy and safe because of me, right?”
但是现在，它显出一副人道和无辜的样子。它说：“我来到这里，只是为了让人们过上更幸福的生活啊！你不会看不见，在中国，人们因我而幸福安全感爆棚吧？”
I said, “How can that happen? People are just scared by you, who will be happy because of you?”
我说：“怎么会？人们怕你还来不及，谁会因你而幸福？”
The virus looked at me, mocking and with disdain: “What you see is just the surface. In fact, people are grateful to me, and even they love me!”
病毒看着我，嘲弄而又不屑：“你看到的只是表面，其实，人们是对我感恩的，甚至，他们是爱我的！”
Looking at my unbelieving eyes, the virus continued, “You see, the mortality rate is less than 5%, so only a handful of people die. For 70 years, time and time again, always a large group of people fights a small group of people. There are more killed and disabled than this. Haven’t they given thanks and said things are great? ”
看着我不信的眼神，病毒继续说：“你看，死亡率只有不到5%，所以死的人只是一小撮嘛。70年来，一次又一次，总是一大群人斗争一小群人，打死的、打残的比这多的去了，他们不照样去感恩，赞颂伟大吗？”
The virus went on to say: “Moreover, I just let a small number of people die physically, and didn’t blame them for anything, right? When they left, they only suffered a little bit of physical pain. Compared to the 70-year-old organization that made all the people painful both spiritually and physically, am I very kind? ”
病毒接着又说：“而且，我只是让一小部分人肉体死亡，并没有给他们罗织什么罪名吧？他们走时只是肉体痛苦一点而已，对比70年来，那个让人精神和肉体全都痛苦万分的组织，我是不是很仁慈呢？”
I actually thought it seemed to make sense, and was speechless.
我竟然觉得它说的似乎有道理，一时语塞。
The virus saw my “understanding” and continued to play: “You see, I am now moving from China to the world. How many Chinese people applaud me, and delight in their hearts, and how many people feel great patriotic happiness because of me?”
病毒看到了我的“明白”，又继续发挥：“你看，我现在从中国走向了世界，这让多少中国人为我叫好，或心中窃喜，多少人因我感到了巨大的爱国幸福？”
I rejected and said, “They are just being fooled by the propaganda, that doesn’t mean they really love you.”
我反驳道：“他们只是被宣传愚弄了，这不代表他们真的爱你。”
The virus widely opened its eyes and said, “You are wrong. What is true love? True love depends on actual action. I was born under the Chinese system and grew stronger under the Chinese system. Look at them, they will praise and be grateful for the system even more. By doing so, they expanded my hotbed and made it more comfortable. Now you say, don’t they really love me? ”
病毒眼睛瞪大说：“你错了，什么是真爱？真爱要看实际行动。我是在中国体制下初生，又是在中国体制下壮大。你看着吧，他们会更加歌颂这个体制，更加感恩这个体制，从而把我的温床扩建的更加舒适，你说，他们是不是真的爱我呢？”
I couldn’t even refute what the virus said, because that’s exactly what is happening now.
我竟然无法反驳病毒所说，因为这正是当下所发生的。
I thought about this city in distress, and asked, “Why do you come here and do harm to the world? You know, people here will not be grateful to you.”
我想到了这座在大难中的城市，问道：“既然这样，那你为什么要来到这里，祸害世界呢？要知道，这里的人们不会对你感恩的。”
The virus smiled proudly. “That’s why I came to the world. I still lack the soil to provide me with nutrition. I can only come for a blitz now and cannot stay long. I do this to make more countries believe that they must copy the model of China, treating China as a teacher, learning about China ’s system, which we call “the common community of human destiny’. If that happens, I can stay in the world forever. ”
病毒得意的笑了，“正因为如此，我才来到世界，这里还缺少给我提供营养的土壤，我现在只能是来一场闪电战，无法久留。我这样做，就是要让更多国家向中国抄作业，把中国当老师，学习中国的体制，人类命运共同体嘛，那样，我就可以常驻全世界了。”
When I heard the virus talking about China in such a tone, I couldn’t help saying to myself, “China, China, that is the 5,000-year-old Divine Land that I loved.”
听到病毒以这样的口气谈论中国，我心里五味陈杂，忍不住自语道，“中国，中国，那可是我所热爱的5000年神州大地啊。”
The virus interrupted me dismissively: “Don’t mention that 5,000 years anymore, that has been broken since 1949, and now China is mine. When my plan is realized, the world will belong to me.”
病毒不屑的打断我：“别再提5000年了，那个从1949年就断了，现在的中国是我的，等我的计划实现了，世界都将属于我。”
I felt that the situation was more serious than what is happening now, and I couldn’t help worrying about it.
我感到事态要比正在发生的更加严重，不禁开始更担心。
Seeing my look, the virus became more proud, smirking, and the blood redness on its face became heavier. It said, “Look, you are scared now. I might as well tell you my ultimate plan.”
看到我的样子，病毒越发得意了，狞笑起来，它脸上的血红色也更重了，它说：“看看，这就害怕了吧，不妨就把终极计划告诉你。”
“Now people say that the first half is in China and the second half is in the world. That’s wrong! My action is three waves. The next wave is more powerful than the previous one. The first wave is the SARS virus. The second wave is what you see now. When it’s time for the third wave, I will not restrain myself anymore, more deadly viruses will appear, and any human protection measures will be too late for the third wave. ”
“现在他们说上半场是国内，下半场是国外，错了！我的行动是三波，下一波比上一波更厉害，第一波是萨斯病毒，第二波是现在你所看到的，第三波，我将不需要再保留，更致命的病毒会出现，到时任何人为的防护措施，对第三波都是根本来不及。”
“When the third wave comes, it will no longer only target a handful. I will take away all those who side with me and be grateful to me. I will take them to another world. It is almost time to harvest. Only they can truly be my people, they will always belong to me, this day is coming, hahaha … ”
“第三波就不需要再是一小撮了，我将把那些为我站台、对我感恩的人全带走，带他们到另一个世界，快到收割的时候了，只有他们，才真正是我的人，他们将永远属于我，这一天就要到来了，哈哈哈……”
Amidst the harsh laughter, the red devil faded away. I know that many people need to be woken up, the sooner the better.
在刺耳的狂笑声中，这个红色魔鬼隐身离去。我知道，有很多人需要被叫醒，越早越好。
