Tian Jing and Catherine and the others hid in the basement and did not dare to show their heads, the hotel where they were hiding was so conspicuous among the few buildings erected in Warsaw that they had no doubt that the outside had been looted several times in this short day. In addition to the students like them, there were eight wounded in the basement, all pedestrians innocently injured by German fire, but they were not unarmed, and the hotel's duty manager, Sanetto, had a shotgun in his hand, an old shotgun, and he didn't know who would blow it up first.

This day was extremely difficult, the gunfire outside did not stop until late at night, Tian Jing and Karina, who were leaning together, looked worriedly at the sand falling from time to time, for fear that this basement would collapse in the next shelling. The hands of the watch pointed just after 2 a.m., the shelling outside ceased, and there were footsteps and sparse shots in the streets, and the occasional muffled sound of orders. There are rebels in Warsaw, Tian Jing knows, but the rebels naturally dare not give orders, so only the commander of the German army can give orders so loudly.

Tian Jing, who was curled up, noticed that every time she heard the German order, the hands of several Polish wounded soldiers would be clenched into fists. She can imagine, but she can't empathize, I don't know why, she is very confident in her oriental appearance, ashamed to say, but lucky, the Germans disdain to kill the yellow race, so, she should be safe, as long as the basement is not blown up by the shelling.

As time passed, the sound of gunfire outside miraculously disappeared, and it was 4 a.m., and the Poles in the basement were ready to return to their homes at night. The Poles, including a few injured pedestrians, slowly got out of the basement, and Tian Jing, who had been hungry, put Karina, who was asleep by herself, on the bench, took off her coat and covered her body, and quietly touched the exit of the basement.

"Tian, why are you going? There are German troops outside, you can't go out" Saneto, the manager on duty, blocked Tian Jing's way with his chubby body, and the old-fashioned shotgun in his hand was facing the exit of the basement.

"We don't have food and water, we can't hide here for long, I'm going out to find some food and come back, you look at Karina well, I'll be back in a while" Tian Jing whispered to Saneto while using a rubber band to tie her long hair together and tie it out in a ponytail. 2 years of studying in Europe has made Tian Jing have long taken off the softness of the Jiangnan water town, and all that remains is the unique tenacity of the Chinese, when she and Karina fled into the basement with everyone, they only grabbed a few slices of bread in their hands, and this bit of food is simply not enough, Tian Jing, who has been running all over the mountains with the boys in the family since childhood, knows the importance of food.

"No, you're a girl, there are German troops outside, they have guns in their hands, you can't go out, when it's dawn, I'll go out to find food" The always good old man Saneto still stopped Tian Jing, in his opinion, if this beautiful oriental girl was hurt because of herself, then she would be a sinner in front of God.

"Saneto, do you know the martial arts of the East?" Tian Jing looked around the basement, raised his feet and walked to the front of a cabinet full of account books, Tian Jing raised his foot and kicked it straight, "click", the solid wood cabinet door had been kicked out by Tian Jing, "See?" I have Chinese kung fu, you just have to take care of Karina, I'll be back soon" Bypassing the sluggish Saneto, Tian Jing leaned towards the exit of the basement and poked his head out to watch the movement outside.

The entrance to the hotel in the basement had been blocked by collapsed bricks, and Tian Jing wanted to get out, but like the Poles, he had to get out of the basement exhaust vent, which happened to be on the side of the street. There was a strong smell of gunpowder smoke in the air, and there was no pedestrian quietly, Tian Jing, who got out of the basement, squatted behind a small tree and hid for a few minutes, waiting for his eyes to adapt to the night, and then ran to the bakery on the corner with his memory.

It is not an exaggeration to describe the current Moussa Hotel with ruins, it is estimated that Tian Jing and Karina's luggage have long been turned to ashes, just a glance at the hotel that is still smoking, Tian Jing carefully avoided the bricks and wooden planks scattered on the ground, and went straight to the bakery on the corner. Fortunately, the bakery is still in good condition, but the locked door and glass window block Tian Jing out, Tian Jing looked left and right, gritted his teeth and picked up a brick from the ground and smashed it into the glass window.

With the sound of glass breaking, before Tian Jing rushed to the bakery, a string of bullets suddenly shot from behind a broken wall, and Tian Jing was frightened by the bullets hitting the ground and splashing ash pillars and turned her head and ran. Between food and life, Tian Jing chose life, the gunfire behind her has not stopped, Tian Jing, who is in a panic, has run through a whole block in a row, if it is not for her physical strength to keep up, I am afraid that she can run out of another block, just like that, Tian Jing can no longer find the original basement, she is lost.

Hearing the sound of footsteps behind him, Tian Jing, who was horrified, climbed over a pile of broken bricks, climbed over a broken wall and dilapidated furniture, and ran to a three-story apartment in front of him that was only half of a bombed building. As soon as he ran into the broken building, he suddenly heard a snapping sound, Tian Jing immediately froze, dodged and hid in the dark and didn't dare to move, in the ruins, just opposite Tian Jing, several young men and women were staring at him coldly with guns.

Tian Jing subconsciously raised her hand, "Don't shoot, don't shoot, I'm just out to find something to eat."

"Report your identity!"

"Shizuta" Tian Jing, who was pointed at the gun, replied with a big tongue, and when she was pointed at the gun, the blood in her whole body seemed to be frozen, and her body did not obey the call, so she finally raised her hands, and her legs began to tremble again.

"It's not a Warsaw accent, you're clearly a German spy!" The young man and woman opposite didn't see Tian Jing's appearance clearly, but only heard her German accent. One of the anxious young girls had already pulled out the dagger at her waist, looking like she was afraid that shooting would alarm the surrounding German troops, and she wanted to use the dagger to solve Tian Jing.

"I'm an international student! I'm not German, I'm Oriental, I'm Chinese" Tian Jing's voice trembled a little, and her feet moved slightly, so that the person opposite could see her appearance clearly. She was gambling that the young men and women opposite were the Polish Resistance in Warsaw, and that she was an Oriental in appearance, which was naturally different from the arrogant Germans.

"Chinese students? How could the Chinese be in Warsaw? Why are you still hanging around outside at this time? The young girl holding the dagger in her hand obviously didn't believe Tian Jing's answer, and as she spoke, the dagger in her hand was already on Tian Jing's neck.

The smell of blood on the dagger made Tian Jing hurriedly shout, "I am really Chinese, I came to Warsaw to meet one of my pen pals during the holidays, we stayed in the Moussa Hotel, my pen pal is called Karina, we have been hiding in the basement below the hotel, the hotel's duty manager Saneto is also with us, I came out to find food." When the air raids started in the morning, we hid in the basement, and if you don't believe me, you can send someone to ask."

The man who seemed to be the leader was silent for a while, and then a small boy whispered something beside the man, and the man's expression softened a little, and said, "It seems that you are telling the truth, we happen to know the Saneto you mentioned." The man put down the gun in his hand and took a few steps forward, stretched out his hand to Tian Jing, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, we are also for safety, now that the German army has entered the city, we, we must hold our last line of defense!" ”

"You're soldiers?" Tian Jing looked at the young men and women around him, wearing ordinary clothes, dirty faces, and covered in dust, and he couldn't see that they had the temperament of a soldier to kill.

"No, I'm just a priest," the man pointed to the young men and women around him, "they are all students, they happened to be hiding in my church during the air raid, many troops in Warsaw have surrendered, but we will continue to fight" The man's voice was a little lonely, "You go back to the hotel, the German follow-up troops are about to enter the city, and soon it will be less safe than during the air raid, you are not a Pole, don't die here in vain"

Tian Jing didn't go far with a bag of bread and red sausages given to her by the priest, when she heard the broken house behind her turn into a ball of fire after a bang, and the dazzling gunfire in the smoke of gunpowder pierced Tian Jing cried bitterly, Tian Jing knew that the priest hiding in the broken house had been discovered by the Germans, and the gunfire was that the two sides were exchanging fire. The priest's people are all students and civilians, they are by no means the opponents of the German soldiers, watching the gunfire gradually become thin, the tearful Tian Jing turned his head and ran wildly, this is the war between Germany and Poland, as a Chinese, she or return to the basement earlier is the right topic.

A sudden series of bullets hit a small tree in front of Tian Jing, and Tian Jing, who was frightened, hugged the food bag and hid behind a pile of rubble on the side of the road in a panic. There was a sound of leather boots, Tian Jing secretly looked over, a group of scattered German troops had surrounded themselves to death, oh my God, their uniforms were black, in the German troops, only the SS were such uniforms, Tian Jing sat stiffly on the ground as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

Tian Jing was already swept away by despair, and the SS soldiers were getting closer and closer, and she could even see the blue light in their eyes. Tian Jing's face was covered with stains, and her eyes were round, but the extreme fear had made her eyes dark, and even the SS soldiers who had walked in front of her could not see clearly.

The leather-gloved hand lifted Tian Jing's chin, posing Tian Jing's stubborn face at an upward 45-degree angle, and an understated voice sounded above Tian Jing's head, in pure Chinese, "Are you Chinese or Japanese?" ”

Tian Jing, who was holding a mortal heart, suddenly stood up from the ground, she didn't know when there was a Chinese presence in the German army, but the ecstasy of meeting her compatriots had made Tian Jing forget that she was still in danger, and then shouted loudly, "I am Chinese, I am from Hangzhou who has studied in Germany for 37 years, I came to Poland just to meet friends"
