Despite her cries for help in the parking area, no standers responded. The assailant then compelled Ma to pay for parking and ordered her to drive out of the mall, taking her to Tongxiang, a near county. Along the way, he continued to threaten her and demanded she borrow money from her friends after checking her bank account balance. When the attacker was briefly dracted, Ma managed to send a message to her boyfriend, who then tracked her phone’s location and alerted the police. A life saved implantsPolice officers from the Chongfu station in Tongxiang arrived at the location. However, before they could intervene, the attacker stabbed Ma 22 times in the chest and then turned the knife on himself. He died shortly after, while Ma, against all odds, survived. Medical personnel later confirmed that Ma’s breast implants had absorbed most of the impact. “We counted over 20 stab wounds. Fortunately, I had undergone breast augmentation surgery in the past, and the implant blocked what could have been a fatal blow. Only one stab wound reached my lung,” Ma told Lichi News, as cited SCMP.

Now that he is dead and the case is closed, there are many things that cannot be undone,” she said.
