There were more than half a million U.S. dollars and the gems she bought yesterday in the safe.
The two entered the mall with their assistant and three bodyguards.
Sister Huo mainly wanted to see the styles of jewelry in Miandian.
It was early in the morning and there were not many people in the mall.
Several people came to the largest jewelry store in the mall.
When I went in, there were two groups of customers choosing jewelry.
When the salesperson in the store saw Yan Ning and his friends come in, he immediately came up to them with a smile.
She said in Miandian, "Welcome, guests. What kind of jewelry would you like to see?"
Yan Ning did not understand the Miandian language, and Huo Jieyan only understood a few words used for daily communication.
Huo Jieyan's female assistant is a top student who studied abroad and is proficient in six languages: Chinese, English, French, Thai, Korean, and Japanese.
She translated for the two of them.
After learning that Sister Huo wanted to see gemstone necklaces, the salesperson led the two to a counter and pointed at several gemstone necklaces and introduced them.
Yan Ning looked at the emerald necklace inlaid with white diamonds on the counter.
This necklace style design stands out from the others.
At this moment, several quarrels were heard nearby, interrupting Yan Ning's thoughts.
Everyone in the store looked towards the counter selling diamond rings, and saw a couple standing in front of the counter arguing for some reason.
As the girl spoke, she pointed to a ring on the counter with an angry expression.
The boy pointed to another ring on the counter and tried to explain something.
Although Yan Ning didn't understand what they were saying, it was not difficult for him to guess what was happening based on their body movements.
Because this kind of thing often happens in front of diamond ring counters in the country.
Yan Ning withdrew his gaze and was about to walk to the sofa in the rest area next to him to sit down when he suddenly heard a "bang" sound from the door.
Then there were screams.
Yan Ning reacted instantly. He turned his head to observe the situation at the door, and then pulled Huo Jieyan to squat quickly and move behind the sofa in the rest area next to him to block their bodies.
Four masked gangsters armed with wooden guns entered the jewelry store.
At the door of the store, a salesperson named Zhong Mucang who was welcoming customers fell to the ground.
Two female customers in the jewelry store screamed and ran out of the store.
"Bang...Bang..."
The next second, he was shot dead by a bandit carrying a wooden warehouse who came towards him from the other side of the door.
Seeing this, other people in the store immediately squatted down with their heads in their hands.
Yan Ning, Huo Jieyan and the female assistant hid behind the sofa, and three bodyguards protected them.
They didn't bring their wares this time, so they could only hide here quietly and not attract the attention of the criminals.
The four gangsters left two to guard the door.
The other two entered the jewelry store, went behind the counter, and searched all the jewelry inside the counter into the bags they brought.
After looting the jewels, one of the criminals found the cash box at the cash register, opened it and took away all the cash inside.
After looting all the valuables from the jewelry store, the two criminals exchanged a few words.
One of the gangsters walked up to a salesperson, pointed a wooden gun at her head and said a few words.
The salesperson, pale and trembling, took the gangster into the safe in the warehouse at the back.
Another gangster in the store looked at several customers in the store and said a few words loudly.
Huo Jieyan's female assistant whispered, "The gangster told everyone to hand over all their cash and valuables, or he would rob them."
Yan Ning turned his head to look at Huo Jieyan. Now he had no choice but to hand over the things honestly.
Those are external things and are not as important as life.
There was no cash in her bag, and the only valuable jewelry on her was the white ice jade bracelet.
There was nothing valuable in Huo Jieyan's bag, and she didn't wear any jewelry.
At this moment, she was somewhat glad that the cash and the gems she bought were left in the safe in the car.
At the counter, the gangster searched several customers and when he was about to reach the sofa, the two gangsters who were standing guard at the door suddenly said something to the store.
Yan Ning had good hearing and heard the sirens coming from a distance.
The female assistant whispered, "They said the police were coming and they had to leave quickly."
Yan Ning and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
The gangster in the store rushed into the warehouse at the back.
After a few seconds, the two gangsters ran out of the jewelry store, got into a car with the two gangsters at the door, and quickly left the mall.
Yan Ning and Huo Jieyan stood up at the same time, "Let's go."
Several people quickly left the jewelry store, ran towards another exit of the mall, and then went around to where they parked.
Several people got into the car, and the bodyguard who stayed in the car quickly started the car and left.
It was more than two minutes after the few people left that the police arrived at the door of the jewelry store in a police car.
Yan Ning and his team drove directly from Mandalay to Yangon Province.
The vehicles were driving on the road and no one spoke.
Huo Jieyan and her female assistant leaned against the back seat with pale faces.
It was the first time for both of them to face such a murder scene.
The aftereffects haven't subsided for a while.
