บท 47: The Start of the Concert

Saturday, April 26, 2014

At 7:30 PM, the two-kilometer radius surrounding West Four Loops Stadium was closely packed with people and cars.

The traffic police had put up barricades in an attempt to direct the traffic to another route, with every policeman and security officer trying their best to maintain order. Thousands, tens of thousands of young men and women were swinging their light sticks, waiting to enter the concert venue. The noise was so deafening that it shook the leaves of the trees along the streets.

There were still many people desperately squeezing their way through. At a glance, only the people's heads could be seen. The pungent smell of sweat lingered in the air.
