Chapter 581: [Bonus - ] Performance
"KYAH!!!"
The moment all the lights in the venue went out, a scream from the venue echoed. Everyone stopped from where they were as they felt blind for a few seconds. However, before they could even think about anything else, the screen on the stage turned on.
Everyone slowly set their eyes on the only thing they could see in this darkness. The screen only showed a moving straight horizontal line. Deep lines appeared between their brows, squinting their eyes, curious about what that meant.
Was this part of the ceremony? A performance? Every year, doing performances on the company’s anniversary would always be a part of the ceremony. So, although it was quite abrupt, many in the venue immediately concluded it was a performance. Whoever that woman screamed earlier panicked for nothing.
"Hahaha!"
When the moving straight horizontal line turned zigzag at the sound of the deep laugh, everyone felt a chill down their spine. With bated breath, the audience kept their eyes glued to the screen, hoping this was just a performance.
After all, tonight’s theme was a masquerade. Although many didn’t wear their mask as they simply held them or kept them tucked in their suits, it still had that mysterious vibe. Having a suspense theme as the opening performance still somehow fell in the category.
"Another year of success..." The voice echoing from the microphone was deep as if it had gone through a voice changer to conceal his real voice. "The Lyon Group reaching greater heights..."
The sound of drums thudded, making everyone’s heart feel each beat. As the voice faded a little, people from behind the stage came out. Seeing they were in costumes, walking strangely with their knees bent, paint on their faces, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
