性福时光

　　看不到一点绿色的荒漠中央，一辆越野车载着数名全副武装的人类疾驰而过。他们来到了那座早已成为废墟的大都市，寻找各种可以回首的有用材料，同时执行这一项极其危险的秘密任务。他们的举动很快就被对手发现，那是一辆战争时期遗留下来的智能战车，它可准确感知对手的存在，并第一时间发动毁灭性的攻击。战士们按照原定计划展开合围，可是根本抵挡不住机器战车的猛烈炮火。　　死一般沉寂的都市，人和机器的战争逐渐升级。可叹的是，人类制造出如此精良的武器，却用它来毁灭了文明，毁灭了自己……

　　The main character is Dr. Max Holst, a successful neurosurgeon. One day an intense little man named Steinmetz shows up, who has the real ability to create objects out of thin air, using only his mind. As no one believes him at first, he is held at a ward for mental patients, but manifests the key to his door and escapes. As he has a special interest in Dr. Holst, Steinmetz subsequently invites Holst to his large mansion, which is full of expensive paintings and sculptures, and proves to him that he can in fact materialise objects. Steinmetz’s abilities are evolving by leaps and bounds, and is progressing from being able to create objects only to being able to create living things. His ultimate ambition is to be able to create a human being. He tells Dr. Holst that if he will only perform a certain brain operation on him, Steinmetz will become able to attain his goal. He’s got all the necessary equipment set up in his basement. Dr. Holst, however, is too spooked by the whole thing to agree to this mad scheme, and refuses. Steinmetz then sets about manipulating Holst’s life, to pressure him into performing the operation. By then Steinmetz has become able to create a temporary human being, and in the hope that he can perhaps make his own creation perform the operation, he manifests a doppelganger of Dr. Holst. This double proceeds to take over Dr. Holst’s life, creating chaos for him professionally and personally. And then Dr. Holst starts fighting back. The ending has the dual virtue of being both unexpected and satisfying.
