COMPUTER WORM
（中日新聞 ３００字小説応募作品 日本語訳は暫くお待ちください）
Recently my notebook computer was malfunctioning: it took too long a time to boot it; Word documents turned into garbled characters; youtube videos did not run; and Internet connection did not work, either. I thought it had gotten some computer worms. So, I tried to remove them by anti-virus software, but failed. Next I tried to recover it, but in vain. I had no choice but to bring it to a home appliance retailer and ask them to fix it.
A week later, I went to the retailer only to find that it was impossible to fix it for some unknown reasons. Discouraged, I went back home with the machine, opened the lid, and switched it on. Believe it or not, I saw a tiny worm coming out of the side of the return key on the key board. Mercy! The worm had been eating my computer. It was, by the way, an Apple.
