15. Insatiable greed
In the abandoned warehouse, Zhen Rou, who had been asleep for an unknown amount of time, finally woke up, she didn't open her eyes immediately, but sniffed with her nose first.
Except for the musty smell and the smell of strangers, she slowly raised her eyelids.
There are some cargo boxes stacked in the corner, and even the concrete floor has fallen a layer of dust, presumably this warehouse has long been forgotten.
Zhen Rou stood up tremblingly, her eyes were full of dust, and she really couldn't stand it.
The footsteps of "kicking ......" approached, Zhen Rou cursed in her heart, and gritted her teeth and threw herself into the dust.
The wooden door was pushed open by a "squeak", and then the sound of heavy leather shoes poured into her ears, Zhen Rou was unmoved, closed her eyes and waited for information.
"Hey, it's really strange that these rich people are kidnapping dogs now, and they are not allowed to abuse them." The man's voice was deep and sounded like a middle-aged man.
Then a younger male voice rang out, "You know what, how many dogs are more expensive than people now!" โ
"Also, I see that those rich and noble families who have dogs on the news spend tens of thousands of dollars a month." The middle-aged man paused, and then said, "Quanzi, do you think this dog is also very valuable?" โ
Hearing this, Zhen Rou's heart suddenly hung up, and she was afraid that the bandits would have evil thoughts about kidnapping.
The whole son in the man's mouth snorted lightly, and his words were full of disdain, "This dog is only a few thousand yuan, and it is not worth mentioning compared to the tens of thousands given by the other party, you weigh it." โ
"That's ......" the middle-aged man wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the phone ringing.
The two of them were silent for a few seconds, and it was Jeonko who answered the phone.
"Hey, Brother Xiang, it's done."
"Well, keep it shut up for me, and there won't be any scars when it is handed over tomorrow, understand?" It was also a young male voice on the other end, someone she didn't know.
Quanzi: "Yes, of course we do, we'll take care of it!" โ
The man over there didn't say anything more, and directly closed the line.
"Put the basin here, lock the door, and I'll go out." The whole son explained that the middle-aged man left first.
"Bang dang", "squeak", the sound of collision and friction came and went, and the footsteps gradually weakened, and Zhen Rou stood up again.
There is a small iron basin on the ground, which contains some water, which is slightly turbid, and you can see that it has been added.
Tsk, sure enough, most criminals are actually ignorant and fearless, she complained in her heart. Then I went and picked up the door and locked it.
The windows of the warehouse were open very high, and Zhen Rou couldn't jump on them at all, so she had to recharge her energy and wait for an opportunity to escape.

At that time, the atmosphere of the crew was not so relaxed, it was simply cloudy.
Not to mention that Simi Lu has been in a deep relationship with everyone for two months, and the filming of the movie has reached the final stage, but the special actors are nowhere to be seen, and everyone will collapse.
In particular, this film is about to be submitted for the Berlin Film Festival, and every second counts.
Ruan Chengze was even more on the verge of going violent, almost turning the city over, and still nowhere to be seen.
Liang Kun directly suspended filming and asked everyone in the crew to set off to find Simi Lu.
On the coast, Ruan Chengze looked into the distance with a heavy gaze, and Liang Kun's name was on the caller ID.
"Hey, got news?"
His voice was full of nervousness and anticipation, Liang Kun heard it for the first time, and he still questioned angrily last time.
"No, don't mess around, Simi Lu is so smart, she won't be fine......" When the words came to the back, even Liang Kun himself had no confidence.
Ruan Chengze's eyes darkened slightly, and his voice revealed tiredness, "Liang Kun, what did Simi reveal, I will never forgive you again." โ
After speaking, he didn't wait for a response, and fell straight into the shallow water.
Dozens of seconds later, he was scooped up by a pair of flexible hands.
"You are a big man, what can't you think of, and you need to jump into the sea to solve it?!" It's a woman.
Ruan Chengze opened his eyes, his eyes were clear, and the person who came was the woman who was with Zhen Hua two nights ago. He took a deep breath, "I didn't think about it, I just wanted to make my brain clearer." โ
The woman raised her eyebrows, and there was no embarrassment on her face, "Ruan Chengze, I'm Gao Yawen." โ
He glanced at Gao Yawen lightly, "I'm sorry, I'm really not in the mood to gossip with you now, thank you for your kindness, goodbye." โ
"Flutter," the woman laughed, "you're really like on stage, well, with a unique sense of distance." โ
Ruan Chengze did not respond, and walked to the beach by himself.
"Hey, are you looking for Similu?" Gao Yawen shouted at him.
Ruan Chengze turned his head suddenly, and the woman was a few steps away from him, and the surprise, anger, consternation, and doubt in his eyes were all visible.

In this gloomy cloud, there is only one exception, Yi Tian.
Although she also ran outside with the crowd, she was obviously more leisurely than anxious, not so much looking for a dog as a walk.
There is no snow in the winter in the south, the outside is wet and cold, and the stars walking outside are tightly wrapped, but they will not be recognized.
Yi Tian walked through the park with few people, and was a little uncomfortable from the cold, so he found a cafรฉ to sit down.
As soon as the warm cappuccino entered, Liang Kun sent a notice.
"Before finding Simi Lu, the crew suspended filming."
Her heart jumped, and she immediately steadied herself, thinking about the reasonableness of this message.
In fact, there is only one last set of character shots left, and the rest are reshoots of Simi Lu. Well, it's reasonable to think about it this way.
The logic is clear, but she always feels that Liang Kun is very tolerant of Ruan Chengze, and even very kind to Simi Lu.
After all, finding a dog is never a 100% goal, but his first instinct is to stop work and search, not to find a replacement while searching.
As far as she knew, Blue was so good.
Yi Tian thought for a moment, as if he had decided something, and got up to leave.
The door frame shook, and the wind chimes on it were brought up, and the coffee shop was cold again. The proprietress held up the phone and slapped Yi Tian outside the glass window. Subsequently, she posted a Weibo asking for identification.
And Yi Tian was talking in a low voice and didn't notice it.
"Hey, you go now, and put it where I said it was, and don't ask why." She hung up after saying this, and then deleted the call log.
After Yi Tian picked up the phone, she seemed to be a little weak or uneasy, and she looked left and right for a while. Sure that no one was following, she put the hat of her black coat over her head and hurriedly flagged down a taxi.

As the minutes passed, Zhen Rou began to feel apprehensive, and her heart panicked. She was locked up here, and although she knew that she didn't have to worry about her life, she always had a feeling of unsteadyness.
I'm afraid of extraneous branches.
There was no clock in the warehouse, and she didn't know exactly how much time had passed, but she could only tell that it was probably evening from the fading light.
Well, the kidnappers should come and add water or food to her.
Zhen Rou thought for a while, lifted the iron basin to the back of the box in the corner, and then overturned it, and the water was all submerged under the wooden box.
Then she resisted her inner resistance, bit the edge of the iron basin, and took it back to its place. No way, you can't pretend to sleep for a day without drinking a sip of water!
She looked around the warehouse again, made sure there wasn't a hole, and fell to the ground. She hadn't eaten all day, and she didn't care if the dust was heavy at this time.
The brain was about to twist into a dead knot, and finally there was the sound of rustling footsteps outside the door, and Zhen Rou hurriedly closed her eyes.
A moment later, she was picked up, Zhen Rou raised her silk eyes slightly, and the ground was indeed moving.
It was as if they were going to move places, and their hearts were speeding up, did their deeds be revealed, or did some other accident happen?
This feeling of being slaughtered by others sucks!
Who did she offend to torture herself like this?
Zhen Rou secretly decided that when she figured it out, she would never spare that person!
After jolting in mid-air for a while, she was finally placed on a floppy cycling seat.
"Hey, old Lei, what about the burlap bag?" Quanzi's voice suddenly sounded, and Zhen Rou was almost frightened.
Lao Lei: "Forget it if you can't find it, anyway, this dog didn't wake up." โ
Quanzi thought about it, and these pet dogs have no combat effectiveness, so they are not afraid when they wake up.
Zhen Rou secretly rejoiced, it didn't seem too bad, if she was really put on a sack, she might not be able to escape if she wanted to.
The windows were too high for her to look out of, and she was thinking about how to determine where to go next, when the two bandits started talking again.
Lao Lei: "Quanzi, why did you say that Brother Xiang suddenly let him bring it over tonight, could it be that this dog is still worth some money?" โ
Quan Zi glanced at Zhen Rou beside him, "There is nothing special about the variety, what do you do with so much, you can get the money later." โ
"That, actually, ......" Lao Lei wanted to say and stopped.
Instead, Quanzi was itching, "If you have anything to say, just say it, don't hang people's appetites." โ
Lao Lei stepped on the brakes violently, "It's better for us to get the money back and then snatch the dog back, and we will share the money from the sale equally." โ
