In a large room packed with media personnel, bright lights and camera lenses trained directly on the stage, reporters fired questions rapidly following the brief statements delivered by representatives of Van Empire and Archon Group.
As the press conference went on, journalists continued searching for ways to stir up scandal out of thin air. However, the woman seated on the stage was truly in no mood for their antics today.
Curiously, a series of bizarre occurrences began happening throughout the room whenever a reporter pressed forward with a particularly ridiculous question.
The mishaps were becoming frequent enough to feel downright spooky. Coffee cups mysteriously tipped over and soaked reporters' notes. A heavy camera tripod nearly collapsed onto a particularly pushy journalist. One reporter suddenly shivered and rubbed his arms, complaining about an inexplicable chill despite the room being perfectly warm.
The entire situation was becoming utterly absurd.
