Use blood as makeup.

In the section of the Jewish medical examination, the doctor who saved the life and healed the wounded can judge the health of the Jews at will with just one glance.

Those Jewish women who have not yet undergone medical examinations pierced their fingers with a needle, used blood as lipstick and blood as blush. Long-term malnutrition has made them yellowish and thin. Faced with death at an unknown time, they turned pale due to fear. In such a place where humanity has long been extinct, it is still instinct to live.

So they used blood as their makeup, and their ruddy faces escaped a massacre.

At least, death came later.

At least, today is still a happy day.

Seeing this scene, I am really sad.
