The whole family overheard her innermost thoughts and went crazy.

Chapter 137 Jewelry Store Robbers

I have to say, this ring is really beautiful!

Ji Qianqian put on the ring: "It's so beautiful! I wanted this ring, and it fits me perfectly!"

"If it's suitable, I'll buy it." Shen Wantang looked at it and thought it was indeed quite nice.

Just as Ji Qianqian was about to take off the ring, an explosion suddenly occurred at the front door!

The enormous sound made everyone present's ears hurt! At the same time, it knocked everyone to the ground.

In the instant of the explosion, Shen Wantang turned around to protect Ji Qianqian. Although both of them fell to the ground, Ji Qianqian was not injured.

My leg hurts a little.

"Sister-in-law!" Ji Qianqian exclaimed, somewhat frightened.

Shen Wantang immediately grabbed her hand: "Don't be afraid, I'm here. It must have been a robbery. As long as we're safe, we should be fine."

It's understandable that a store as expensive as his would be robbed.

Sure enough, once the smoke cleared, several men dressed in black, armed with guns, stormed in.

After they came in, they closed the shop door, and even the five bodyguards inside couldn't do anything about them.

Shen Wantang could tell at a glance that these people were definitely gangsters, and each of them probably had several lives on their hands.

If these people are in a good mood, then it's fine; they probably won't kill everyone here.

However, if they are in a bad mood, they are very likely to go on a killing spree.

There were a total of ten waiters and five bodyguards in the shop, plus Shen Wantang and Ji Qianqian, making a total of six customers.

"Come on, everyone! Come here!" a man in black shouted. "If you don't come, you'll face the consequences."

One of the bodyguards tried to secretly press the alarm button, but the criminals discovered him!

Without saying a word, the assailant shot and killed the bodyguard.

Upon hearing the gunshot, everyone present froze and obediently huddled together.

Shen Wantang held Ji Qianqian's hand tightly. No matter what, as long as Ji Qianqian was by her side, she could protect her.

"Who is the manager?" The thug pulled out a waitress, pointed a gun at her head, and asked, "If the manager comes forward, this pretty girl won't have to die."

"Don't kill me! Please don't kill me!" The pretty waitress cried, her eyes brimming with tears.

My whole body was shaking uncontrollably.

"Me! I'm the manager here! Let her go!" A middle-aged woman in a suit stood up, her gaze fixed on the assailant without the slightest fear.

Looking at the scene before her, Shen Wantang couldn't help but think to herself.

[System, you're really awesome!]

If we could save everyone here, how many merit points would we get!

Perhaps she could directly access the Merit Mall and then go find Ji Yushi.

After seeing her stand up, the assailant kept his word and released the waiter.

"Come here, manager, give me the warehouse key and the password." The thief stretched out his hand directly. Although there were many items displayed outside the shop, there were also quite a few inside the warehouse.

The manager was very obedient. She knew that she had no choice but to go along with the thugs, otherwise she wouldn't even know how she died. The most important thing now was to buy time and wait for rescue!

"The key is in my desk drawer. My desk drawer requires a combination. Please take me there, and I'll get it for you," the manager said, looking at them. This was the truth, so she had nothing to be ashamed of.

“Come on, I’ll go with you.” The number one thug pointed a gun at the manager’s head, and the two of them walked toward the manager’s office next door.

The manager went to her desk and found that the power had been cut off. It must have been those thugs who planted explosives at the door and blew up the power lines!

Perfect timing, we've gained some extra time!

“This cabinet of mine is very explosion-proof. Your explosion just now must have cut off the power. The warehouse key is inside. If you have the ability, take it out!” The manager pointed to the cabinet.

The entire cabinet is made of metal and is bulletproof. It requires a password to open and is powered on, but now the power is off, so it can't be opened.

The number one thug was somewhat skeptical after hearing this, so he dragged the cabinet out and said, "Brothers, the cabinet is locked, and the key is inside. We need to force it open now."

"Step aside, let me try to bring the manager back." Thug number two stepped forward.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the manager quietly pressed the alarm button and notified the shop owner.

"Go sit down over there," thug number one said to the manager.

The manager nodded and consciously walked over to sit with the crowd.

During this time, thugs number three and four had already searched the entire place, and the items there were worth 200 million, not to mention the items in the warehouse.

"Sister-in-law, will they let us go after they take the things?" Ji Qianqian was a little scared, after all, they had witnessed a bodyguard die at their hands.

Moreover, these thugs are ruthless killers; it's clear they do this kind of thing often.

"Hmph, if you don't let us go, then I'll make sure none of them can leave!" Shen Wantang sneered.

A bunch of scum, but they've got guts to rob this place! Why hasn't anyone robbed this place for so long? It's not that no one has, but rather that those who have tried to rob here never have a good ending!

Over time, everyone involved in robbery knew that this place was off-limits!

I wonder if these people are trying to gamble big with small investments, or if they're just young and fearless.

Regardless of who they are, they have no way out now!

The crowd huddled together, and as time ticked by, finally, someone else's voice rang out from outside the shop: "Hey? Who's inside!"

"Damn it, you dare call the police!" The number one thug stormed up to the manager and slapped him across the face.

The manager's face was slapped to the side, and a trace of blood appeared at the corner of her mouth, but she gritted her teeth and didn't utter a sound!

"Wait!" Shen Wantang suddenly spoke up. She sensed that the number one criminal was very angry and was afraid that he would suddenly kill her.

“How could the people inside call the police? It must have been someone outside!” Shen Wantang continued to explain.

“Yes! The explosion was so loud just now, not only the people outside noticed it, but the security guards outside must have noticed it too! So it’s more likely that they called the police!” The manager instantly understood what Shen Wantang meant.

Look for me if you want, just don't find me.

Upon hearing this, the number one thug realized that it made sense, and he also didn't believe that these people had the guts.

They were all trembling with fear, and two of the more timid ones had even started crying.

Ji Qianqian held tightly to Shen Wantang's clothes, afraid that they would be affected.
