Chapter 292 Keep it secret
At this point in time, at this location on the edge of Weiyang Pavilion.
This sudden explosion caused many people to have some bad associations.
Five minutes after the explosion, the three chosen ones from the Institute of Science and Technology had arrived at the scene, leading their subordinate third-level researchers to surround the ruins after the explosion!
At this time, the Royal History Exhibition Hall had completely disappeared from the central city, leaving only broken walls and debris on the ground!
Because An Hong was going to give a live speech to the entire city, the exhibition hall was also opened on a large scale today, and a large number of people were organized to watch the live broadcast here.
But the explosion happened so suddenly, there was no warning at all, and no one was prepared in advance. With such a huge power, no one had a chance of survival!
Just take the power that shook the entire center, collapsed the entire exhibition hall, and affected a large area on the east side of Weiyang Pavilion. Even a third-level warrior at the center of the explosion might not be able to withstand such damage, let alone these ordinary people!
However, when faced with the heavy casualties, the people who arrived here first did not show too much concern.
They are just some people in the central city. Although their status is higher than that of the untouchables, they have never been considered important people.
Their focus is on who caused the explosion and what its purpose was.
Soon, An Hong's live broadcast originally scheduled for 10 . was suspended. The Criminal Investigation Department and the Rehabilitation Center conducted a comprehensive search of the scene, and in just two hours, they had found the culprit of the bombing.
Western District Education Foundation.
This group of people with Western faces did not conceal their whereabouts and intentions at all. Because it was adjacent to Weiyang Pavilion, and there was An Hong's speech today, the defense forces were basically concentrated in the area where the group of reporters were, and there were not many guards here in the Royal History Exhibition Hall.
And a tunnel had been dug under the exhibition hall at some unknown time.
The people of the Education Foundation had planned for this building long ago. In the early hours of the morning, when it was still dawn, seven of the chemical patented 709 modified weapons that Levi had used to self-detonate in the academy and had killed a third-level person were transported from the underground!
These 7 explosives exploded from under the exhibition hall, causing huge casualties!
After the explosion, all central stations were blocked, all scheduled trains were suspended, and people were only allowed to enter the city but not leave!
Led by Tianxuan from the Rehabilitation Institute, the four brigades of the Criminal Department surrounded the office building where the foundation was located, but they came up empty-handed as everyone inside had already evacuated.
They left openly, and in the Shadow Prime Minister's data records, one can still find images of these people when they boarded the train to the Western Region early this morning!
Soon, through investigating the various things the foundation had done in the central government, the various people it had trained, and some of the things it left behind after its withdrawal, the people from the Criminal Department were able to quickly uncover the true background behind this private foundation that had been deeply rooted in the central government for nearly a hundred years.
In name, it was an educational foundation jointly invested by several large financial groups in the Western District. In fact, the organization that truly controlled this foundation was a prominent family that fled from the central government to the Western District in the early 21st century!
This family with an exceptionally long history once made an extremely outstanding contribution to the survival of mankind underground, but later made a big mistake and was expelled and fled.
But it is obvious that these people are still unwilling to give up their evil intentions. They have always sent people to lurk in the central government, plotting and trying to overthrow the royal family!
However, after finding out the family behind the foundation, the entire central leadership was very secretive. No one had any doubts about why they specifically wanted to blow up the Royal History Exhibition Hall, and no one wanted to mention this past event, nor would they let the people below reveal the name of the family. The explanation given to the public was to put the blame directly on Green Day for the disaster.
Anyway, for those ignorant people, as long as the crime was committed by someone from the Western District, it can be said to be Green Day.
Before the matter was investigated thoroughly, An Hong, who had been protected in the underground safe room of Weiyang Pavilion, was originally furious about the explosion which was a complete provocation. However, after learning about the family behind this incident, he fell completely silent.
It was as if his anger had nowhere to vent at this moment. He could only keep a cold face and wait for all the information to be summarized. After confirming that there was no danger outside, he was protected and returned to his bedroom on the ground.
Afterwards, Hu Cheng brought the cabinet ministers to have a video call with An Hong and expressed concern for his safety, but no one mentioned the mastermind behind the scenes. They just confirmed with An Hong that it would be better not to cancel today's speech.
Because the explosion occurred next to Weiyang Pavilion, people believed that the explosion was an assassination attempt on An Hong. Now, in order to stabilize the emotions of these people, it would be best for An Hong to appear in front of the whole city and prove his safety.
In response, An Hong did not refuse. He just looked absent-minded and was obviously still thinking about the explosion.
At the same time, not far from Weiyang Pavilion, on the top floor of Tianen Building.
Lin Xianjue was also participating in a video conference. Looking at the virtual screen, the Republican leaders asked him whether the explosion was the opportunity he mentioned. Lin Xianjue just shook his head and smiled.
"Don't worry, everyone. I believe you have already received the news and know who is behind the explosion this morning. I will not cooperate with them. Our goal is to completely remove the monarchy from history, not to replace it with another royal family."
After hearing this answer, the others were silent for a moment, and no one commented on what he said, but someone continued to ask.
"So where is the opportunity you mentioned? Now the cabinet has moved up the original plan to quell the rebellion. If no action is taken, the central government's main focus will be on the rebellion in the East Region. By that time, all our people will be sent out. No matter what happens, we will not be able to make better arrangements!"
Lin Xianjue leaned back in a relaxed manner on the leather seat. He turned his head to look outside the glass curtain wall at the tall and majestic Weiyang Pavilion, crossed his fingers in front of him, and spoke softly.
"Don't worry, I have a different intuition. This morning's explosion is just the beginning. The real drama is still to come."
