Eulis was a bakery owner who secretly took in 32 Jews during the war and hid them in his attic. Fortunately, he owns a bakery and can provide necessary food for these Jews in distress.
When the Soviet army recaptured Klementchug some time ago, Yulis couldn't help but feel ecstatic, because this way, the Jews hiding in the attic would have a chance to see the light of day again.
Unexpectedly, not long after he was happy, a group of soldiers wearing blue hats broke into his home and took him away from his home in the name of assisting the Germans during the fall of the city. Fortunately, the other party came to the bakery only to arrest people and not to conduct a search, so the Jews hiding in the attic were not found.
After Ulis was imprisoned, it seemed that he was forgotten by the people of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and no one came to interrogate him at all. In this way, he was held in jail for five days.
Just as he was worried about the Jews hiding in the attic, he heard the prisoners in the same cell whispering: "Did you hear that?"
"What did you hear?"
"Tomorrow we will drag out all our people and shoot them."
"Ah, shoot them all. Why?"
"Why? Their crime is that we helped the Germans during their occupation of Kremenchug."
The conversation between the two frightened Eulis out of his mind. He rushed to the door, shook the iron fence vigorously, and shouted loudly: "Let me out, let me out!" His shouts echoed in the empty corridor. Echoed, but never saw even a soldier from the Ministry of Internal Affairs appear.
"Friend, stop screaming." The middle-aged man among the people who were chatting just now said to Yulis: "Even if you scream, no one will pay attention to you."
Yulis quickly returned to the man's side and squatted down, and couldn't wait to ask: "Friend, is what you just said true?"
"Yes," the man nodded and replied: "When I was refreshed today, I heard people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs saying that anyone who has done anything for the Germans should be severely punished. There will be a mobile one tomorrow Military courts review and approve those detained in prisons, and after the verdict is over, they are all shot.”
After confirming the bad news, Yulis fell to the ground, as if all his strength had been drained away. He never dreamed that he, a bakery owner who had always been independent from the world, would end up like this.
Just when he was heartbroken, he suddenly heard the sound of the cell door opening in the distance, and then a burst of chaotic footsteps sounded in the corridor. The middle-aged man sitting opposite Yulis stood up, came to the cell door, looked out, and said, "Strange, why are so many people here? Are we going to be shot in advance?"
Yulis heard footsteps stopping at the door, and then there was a loud bang. Someone opened the cell door from the outside, and then a majestic voice came: "Is Yulis in there?" This voice asked Yulis. It was like a reminder. He was so frightened that his legs became weak and he could not stand up.
The people outside waited for a while and saw no movement in the cell, and then several people walked in. At the front was a lieutenant general wearing a blue hat, followed by a lieutenant also wearing a blue hat. The Lieutenant of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, whom everyone knew, was following the two of them with a bow and a bow.
The lieutenant standing next to the general stepped forward and asked loudly: "Yulis, who is Yulis?"
However, there was still no reply.
The lieutenant who spoke was Samoilov, and the general who first walked into the cell was naturally Sokov's military commissar Lunev. The two of them came here to rescue Yulis on Sokov's order. .
After Samoylov shouted several times and saw no one answered, he glanced at the dozen prisoners in the cell one by one and said to Lunev in a low voice: "Comrade Military Commissar, is there something wrong?" Oh, maybe he’s not in this cell at all.”
Lunev strongly agreed with Samoylov's statement. There were only a dozen or so people in the cell. If Yulis was really there, he should have squeaked after hearing Samoylov shouting for so long. Thinking of this, he turned to the lieutenant of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and asked: "Comrade Lieutenant, didn't you say that Yulis was locked up in this cell?"
"That's right, Comrade General." The lieutenant of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was also quite puzzled. According to the prison records, the bakery owner Yulis was indeed imprisoned in this cell. Why did the lieutenant who came with the general shout After a long time, no one replied? "He's in this cell."
Before Lunev could speak again, the lieutenant turned around and ordered the men outside the door: "Quickly check the records and see where that Yulis is being held?"
After hearing the lieutenant's order, the soldiers outside quickly looked through the jail records. After seeing clearly the cell where Ulis was held, he looked up at the number above the cell door, and then replied in a positive tone: "Comrade Lieutenant, yes, he is locked in this room."
"Really?" The lieutenant didn't believe what his subordinate said, so he snatched the register from his hand and looked at it carefully. Sure enough, I saw Yulis's name on it, and it even matched the cell where he was held. He quickly approached Lunev, pointed to the record above and said: "Comrade General, you see, Yulis is indeed imprisoned in this cell."
"Since it's this cell, why did Lieutenant Samoylov shout so many times but no one answered?"
The lieutenant rolled his eyes and immediately thought of a good idea, and said to Lunev: "Comrade General, there are only 12 people in this cell anyway. We might as well name them one by one. The remaining people who have not agreed should be the ones you want." Looking for someone."
After obtaining Lunev's consent, the lieutenant asked his subordinates to begin the roll call. The prisoners whose names were called were driven to the other side of the cell. Soon, only Eulis was left sitting on the ground in a daze, his eyes unfocused.
The lieutenant stepped forward and bent over and slapped the other man in the face. The severe pain made Yulis wake up from his dazed state. He looked blankly at the lieutenant standing in front of him, wondering why the other man wanted to hit him.
Seeing that Yulis had regained consciousness, the lieutenant asked sharply: "What's your name?"
"Ulis!"
"Ulis?!" When he heard Yulis say his name, the lieutenant couldn't help feeling ecstatic. He stood up straight and said to Luniev: "Comrade General, he is Yulis!"
But Lunev did not express his position rashly. Instead, he winked at Samoylov beside him and motioned for him to come forward for questioning. Samoilov nodded with understanding, walked up to Yulis and squatted down: "You said your name is Yulis?"
"Yes, Comrade Commander."
"What do you do?"
"The owner of the bakery."
After seeing that the name and occupation matched, Samoilov turned to look at Lunev, wanting to see his reaction.
Luniev came to Yulis, looked down at him and asked: "Since you said you are the owner of the bakery, tell me, how many Jews live in the attic?"
When Luniev asked about the Jews, Yulis jumped up from the ground and asked in surprise: "Comrade General, have you found the Jews hiding in my attic?" He felt that since the other party asked him this, maybe He had a chance of survival.
"Yulis," Luniev did not answer his question, but continued to ask: "You said there are Jews hiding in your attic, but you haven't told me the specific number yet." Yulis is a A bakery owner who secretly took in 32 Jews during the war and hid them in his attic. Fortunately, he owns a bakery and can provide necessary food for these Jews in distress.

He slapped the opponent on the waist, and the severe pain made Yulis wake up from his lost state. He looked blankly at the lieutenant standing in front of him, wondering why the other party wanted to hit him.
