Chapter 451
In the darkness, consciousness kept drifting, and finally, a burst of cold hit, and Liao Yuan felt the existence of his body.

In the warehouse as silent as a deep valley, the moonlight drips from the crack of the door in the distance, and the air is cold.

Liao Yuan opened his eyes and glanced around.

What can be seen is a smelly garbage dump, not so much a garbage dump, but a garbage mountain, and a few mice scurry around the corner, making squeaking noises.

Cold, cold to the bone marrow.

"It's back again." Liao Yuan muttered to himself, feeling a little broken inside.

Is this a dream?
No, absolutely not.

Liao Yuan felt the soreness and weakness of his body, as well as the scars that had slowly formed on his face and arms. The cold pain could not be faked.

If it is a dream, it is too real!

He struggled to sit up, and slowly, the memory began to wake up.

Memories like rain and clouds in my mind, like a movie screening, appear one by one.

A few days ago, in order to commemorate the 10th anniversary of debut, the company specially planned and arranged a world-class concert with more than [-] people.

Liao Yuan also attaches great importance to this day, so he practiced it day and night, and also prepared two songs from the new album, which he planned to use as easter eggs in the concert and sing to the [-] fans in the audience.

As Asia's leading actor and song god, the news of Liao Yuan's concert preparations naturally attracted the enthusiastic attention of fans. Many fans at home and abroad are looking forward to the arrival of this day. Not long ago, Liao Yuan's concert tickets Pre-sales have also started. The ticket price for scalpers alone has soared to 8000 yuan per ticket. Overseas, this price is even more violent. When the popularity was the highest, it had already exceeded 2 yuan per ticket.

The pre-sale of tickets is in batches, and each time a certain amount of tickets are released, they are basically sold out.

At that time, Liao Yuan was also very happy when he heard the news. Now his popularity has stood at the top of the entire Chinese community. The records of movie box office, album sales, and appearance fees have been broken one after another by him.

In the ten years since his debut, he has tasted ups and downs, and his current achievements are due to his personal efforts in addition to the imprints of his previous life.

However, a few days before the start of the concert, a large-scale ticket refund incident suddenly broke out on the Internet.

At first, the reason was very simple. In order to buy a front row seat for Liao Yuan’s concert, a young man who had just graduated spent 7 yuan on tickets from a scalper. This was originally a normal phenomenon in the industry. After all, he wanted to get front row tickets In addition to the normal purchase channels, you can only buy from scalpers.

The normal channels are basically completely blocked for some reason, so the only way to buy is scalpers.

As a top superstar, Liao Yuan's concert tickets have reached sky-high prices, and the supply of tickets is in short supply. If you can spend [-] yuan to buy an audience ticket for Liao Yuan's concert, you are definitely a true fan.

There is a shortage of everything in the world, but there is no shortage of local tyrants, so even if it is sold for 7 yuan, there are still fans of local tyrants who spend money to buy it.

But the key point is that this young man who has just graduated has no ability to spend such a huge amount of tickets. The reason why he was able to buy this 7 yuan ticket is entirely because he swiped his parents' bank card.

And this incident was known to the parents the next day. It was an ordinary family, and even life was slightly difficult recently, so when this incident came out, it made the family that was not well-to-do even worse.

But the scalpers only sell tickets, and it is absolutely impossible to find them to refund the tickets, and they can't even find anyone.

Therefore, the young parents can only contact the organizer, hoping to refund the tickets for their class. The organizer promised very readily, but they can only refund them 6000 yuan, because the price of this ticket displayed on the official price platform is 6000 yuan.

7 yuan turned into 6000 yuan, this kind of thing is not willing to be placed on anyone.

But the organizer is not willing to pay for this fee. After all, the other party bought scalper tickets, not formal channels.

After going back and forth, it became stiff.

Afterwards, some media noticed this incident, so the major portals began to report on this incident on a large scale. Later, seeing that the popularity did not rise, they came up with another new strategy——

I don't know who came up with the bad idea. The two parents showed up at the rehearsal scene of Liao Yuan's concert, and threatened each other with death, wanting the organizer to bear the loss of 7 yuan in tickets.

Liao Yuan also knew about this matter, and asked specifically during the rehearsal. The company had obviously just learned about it, and was very angry. He ordered the ticket issuer to resolve the matter immediately, and apologized on Weibo.

This incident caused a lot of trouble, and the organizers were under a lot of pressure, but after some discussion, they still insisted on the ticket price of 6000 yuan.

Because of this opening, they may fall into a bigger abyss of ticket refunds.

So they chose to call the police and forcibly evacuated the parents of the young people who were forcing them to die.

In their public remarks, they expressed their willingness to refund tickets for all users who purchased tickets through normal channels. The implication is that tickets purchased through abnormal channels should not make trouble with them anymore.

When the police came forward, they thought the incident had subsided, but within two days, the media reported that the young parents had taken sleeping pills and sent them to the hospital. As a result, public opinion was in an uproar, and the incident reached a climax again.

At this time, another person stepped forward and exposed the underground cooperation between the ticket issuer and the scalpers, and public opinion was in an uproar.

Everyone was condemning the ticket issuer, so that some people started maliciously attacking Liao Yuan.

And in the days that followed, large-scale ticket refunds began to appear on the Internet.

Liao Yuan also began to pay attention to this matter, but the company regulations prevented him from making an excuse immediately. This is something that the brokerage company should solve. Otherwise, why sign the company?

Unexpectedly, just before the start of the concert, during an event, Liao Yuan had just stepped off the performance stage. While washing in the bathroom, taking advantage of the security gap, someone hit him with a sap and passed out instantly.

When I woke up again, I came to this dark warehouse where the coordinates were unknown, and the air was filled with rotten and stench all day long.

Recalling this point, Liao Yuan took a deep breath.

At this moment, he was already immune to the stench around him, and his brain was spinning rapidly, thinking about ways to survive.

His hands and feet were tied up with nylon cable ties, and it was absolutely impossible to break free, and the more he struggled, the tighter he tied them.

How to solve it?

Can only outsmart!

Today's Liao Yuan recalled the incident and still knew the identity of the kidnapper. It was obviously the old man who robbed his parents' bank to buy tickets out of vanity.

The other party wanted to ask for money, not to really murder him.

Thinking of this, Liao Yuan felt a little more relaxed.

Although tension can increase vigilance, relaxation is obviously more convenient for people to think independently.

Taking advantage of the dim moonlight between the doors, he looked at everything around him.

It is still the dilapidated warehouse that appeared many times in the dream, the piles of garbage, and some arrogant mice.

In front of him, there was a messy operating table, and various needles were placed on the medical trolley next to him.

In the dream, the other party didn't know what to inject for him, and it didn't take long for him to return to the third life after the injection. The injection was obviously fatal...

While thinking, a weak air flow came, footsteps and switches sounded at the same time, the light bulb hanging in the room was turned on, emitting a faint light, the current seemed a little unstable, and there was a buzzing sound.

Liao Yuan's heart trembled, and he quickly closed his eyes.

The door of the warehouse was pushed open, and Liao Yuan could even smell the alcohol.

The other party was fiddling with the needle tube on the medical cart without saying a word, and soon, a sigh came.

"I'm sorry, I'm really, it's just for money..."

"You have a lot of money, and the salary for one movie is enough for us ordinary people to live for a lifetime. Why do you force me?"

"I used to be a fan of your movie. I have seen all the movies you acted in. If you can achieve today's achievements, I also contributed a lot to the box office..."

"But I don't understand, why are you forcing me? Why are you just refusing to refund the tickets? I know I bought the tickets from the scalpers, but didn't you release the tickets from the scalpers in private? Isn't the money in the end? Did you earn it?"

"My parents are lying unconscious in the hospital for me. I just need money now, just money..."

There were sobs and pain in the words.

Liao Yuan opened his eyes, he couldn't see the other person's expression clearly, but he saw that the person had already picked up the needle and was about to prick his arm...

He almost jumped up in fright.

"You want money? I have plenty of money, you know. But how do you get money when I'm dead?"

Liao Yuan said weakly.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he was startled by his own voice, it was too hoarse and too weak, he really didn't know how long he had been imprisoned, and he still survived until now.

The young man was shocked when he heard Liao Yuan's words, and seemed a little unbelievable: "Are you willing?"

Liao Yuanqiang cheered himself up and forced a smile: "How much do you want? Give me the number, and I'll have someone call you directly."

"Seventy thousand! I only want seventy thousand!" the young man said excitedly.

Liao Yuan froze for a moment, feeling a trace of sadness while being angry in his heart.

Seventy thousand, only seventy thousand.

It's not 700 million, and it's not 7000 million. Moreover, it's not US dollars...

My own life is only worth [-]?
Liao Yuan came back to his senses, and said, "Okay, I'll give it to you, let me make a call, and I can give it to you right now."

"No, you lied to me, I'm not a three-year-old kid."

The young man said calmly, "Now the police must be monitoring my phone, and you don't have a mobile phone... So, tell me the number, and I'll call from a public phone booth, so the police won't be able to find out."

Liao Yuan wanted to laugh, but couldn't.

[-] is really not worth mentioning to me, but the other party obviously regards [-] as extremely important.

But silly boy, what time is it now, even if you use a public phone, you will immediately reveal clues...

He sighed, reported a number, and finally confessed: "You'd better ask for more."

"What more do you want?"

The young man asked while remembering the number.

"money."

"why?"

The young man was puzzled, then he shook his head, and said righteously: "My purpose is not for money, I just want a fairness."

Silly boy, this world has never been fair...

Liao Yuan hesitated to speak, and then replied: "If you only want [-], I guess they will think you are playing tricks on them. You'd better add a few zeros after the money."

The young man left, and looked very excited.

Liao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and closed his eyes again.

He wondered why his previous self didn't agree to the other party's request, it was only [-] yuan.

Could it be that time has passed, and I have experienced myself in another life, and my mood has changed?
He actively recalls, but it seems that he only remembers a few words, as if he used Guang Weizheng's power to try to influence and educate the other party?
Liao Yuan was speechless.

But these are not important anymore, because he knows that he will be saved in a short time.

Thinking of this, Liao Yuan felt a sigh of relief, and then his whole body went limp, his head tilted, and he fell into a coma again.

When he opened his eyes again and woke up, he found that he was in the ward.

The air smelled of disinfectant.

However, this ward is very strange.

"Which world is this in?"

"Weiyin? Xiaoci? Brother Yuetao? Is anyone there?"

Liao Yuan shouted loudly, and immediately felt a slight pain in the corner of his mouth, obviously pulling the wound.

A wound at the corner of the mouth?
Liao Yuan was taken aback.

The next moment, he lowered his head, and saw that his arms and chest were all bandaged, and even his left foot was fixed, hanging in mid-air.

He realized something, and the corner of his mouth was a little bitter.

A few seconds later, there were dense footsteps outside the door, and soon, a large group of medical staff poured into the ward.
