In Berlin, after World War II, money was short, supplies were tight, and it seemed like everyone was hungry. At that time, people were telling the tale of a young woman who saw a blind man picking his way through a crowd. The two started to talk. The man asked her for a favor, could she deliver the letter to the address on the envelope? Well it was on her way home, so she agreed.
She started out to deliver the message, when she turned around to see if there was anything else the blind man needed. But she spotted him hurrying through the crowd without his smoke glasses or white cane. She was naturally suspicious, so she went to the police.
When the police paid a visit to the address on the envelope, they made a gruesome discovery, three butchers had been harvesting human flesh and selling it to the starving people.
And what was in the envelope the man gave to the woman? A note, saying simply, "This is the last one I am sending you today."

Di Berlin, setelah selesai perang dunia ke-2, uang menipis, bahan pangan tinggal sedikit dan setiap orang kelaparan. Orang-orang di masa itu pernah bercerita tentang seorang gadis muda yang melihat pria buta sedang berjalan membelah kerumunan orang-orang. Gadis ini terlibat percakapan dengan pria itu. Si Pria meminta pertolongan agar gadis itu mengirimkan surat ke alamat terlampir. Ternyata alamatnya dilewati gadis itu saat pulang, dan gadis itu setuju mengantarnya.
Gadis itu sudah bersiap-siap mengantar surat itu. Ia memutar kepala untuk menanyakan kepada pria buta itu kalau-kalau ada lagi yang perlu dibantu. Ia melihat pria itu tergesa-gesa melalui orang-orang tanpa kacamata dan tongkatnya lagi. Tentu saja gadis itu curiga lantas pergi ke kantor polisi.
Ketika Polisi mendatangi alamat pada surat itu, Polisi menemukan penemuan yang mengerikan. Ada tiga orang tukang daging sedang memanen daging manusia segar dan menjualnya ke orang-orang yang sedang kelaparan.
Dan apa isi suratnya? Sebuah tulisan mengatakan, "Ini adalah kirimanku yang terakhir hari ini."
