Chapter 1936 Easing the Situation

Following the police's emergency announcement, confirming that the violent explosion on Fleet Street was not a terrorist attack, the chaotic situation around the Temple Church finally changed and gradually calmed down.

Those people who were terrified and fled in all directions stopped, turned their heads and looked around, and began to observe the surrounding situation, somewhat regaining their rationality.

People who had just rushed into several nearby buildings, rushed into bars and restaurants on the street, hid under flower beds, and even hid behind roadside garbage bins also came out of hiding.

The many London policemen and British soldiers who were still around the Temple Church calmed down after receiving the order and began to rebuild the order here.

The arrival of the convoy of Prince Charles and Prince William was like a reassurance, making everyone instantly understand that the deafening and violent explosion just now was indeed not a terrorist attack.

If not, the first and second heirs to the throne of the British King would never have rushed to the Temple Church at this time, unless they were crazy.

Under the escort and guidance of a large number of heavily armed London policemen and British women, the convoy of Prince Charles and Prince William passed through the chaotic crowd, drove straight to the gate of the Temple Church, and stopped slowly.

Immediately afterwards, Prince Charles and Prince William got out of the car one after another, and under the escort of more than a dozen royal security personnel, they walked towards the entrance of the Temple Church.

In addition to the royal security personnel, around them, there are many heavily armed Scotland Yard special police, holding up several heavy shields, tightly protecting Prince Charles and the others.

While speaking, Prince Charles and the others had climbed the steps of the entrance of the Temple Church, which was only a short distance away from the entrance of the Temple Church.

At this moment, several media reporters who had recovered their senses immediately seized this rare opportunity, stood outside the cordon and began to ask questions loudly.

"Good evening, Your Royal Highness, Your Royal Highness, I am a reporter from The Times. Can you tell me about the violent explosion that happened on Fleet Street just now? How much damage did the explosion cause? Is it a terrorist attack?"

"His Royal Highness, Your Royal Highness, good evening, I am the London correspondent of The Washington Post. A violent explosion just happened on Fleet Street, and you immediately rushed to the Temple Church.

At such a moment, why do you insist on rushing to the Temple Church in spite of the danger? What is the specific reason, can you explain it to everyone? I'm sure everyone is interested"

Hearing the questions from these media reporters, Prince Charles immediately ordered everyone around him to stop in a low voice.

Next, he discussed with Prince William in a low voice, and then Prince William came forward to answer questions from many media reporters.

For them, this is a good opportunity to set the record straight and appease the emotions of the people. By the way, they can also show the gentlemanly demeanor of members of the royal family who are not afraid of danger. Naturally, they cannot be missed.

Under the escort of several royal security personnel and Scotland Yard special police, Prince William came to the steps of the church entrance and looked at the people who were still in shock in the square in front of the church, as well as many media reporters.

He first raised his hands and pressed down gently to signal everyone to be quiet, then he picked up a hand-held loudspeaker handed over by the security guard and said aloud:

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, friends from the media, the police have issued an emergency announcement before, and I would like to reiterate here that the violent explosion on Fleet Street was definitely not a terrorist attack!

You don't need to feel panic and fear, please be sure to cooperate with the work of the London police,

Accept some necessary identification checks, then evacuate in an orderly manner, return to your respective homes, and reunite with your family members.

The explosion on Fleet Street occurred in the UK headquarters building of Goldman Sachs Bank. It is already night and everyone has gone home from get off work. The explosion only caused certain property damage and no casualties.

According to the investigation and speculation of the police, the explosion was probably deliberately made by some people, with the purpose of creating chaos, and then took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the Temple Church and snatch the newly discovered Christian relics.

I would like to remind everyone that you must be careful of the strangers around you, except the police and friends you know, don’t listen to anyone’s bewitching, and at the same time, pay attention to safety, I hope everyone can go home smoothly.”

Hearing this, everyone in the square in front of the Temple Church couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, and somewhat relaxed.

Immediately afterwards, everyone began to look around and examine every stranger they didn't know. It seemed that every stranger had ulterior motives, was a bastard who deliberately created confusion, and just confused himself.

Through the cameras and video cameras of many media reporters at the scene, as well as the mobile phones of the people at the scene, Prince William's words spread throughout London, the entire UK, and even the world in a blink of an eye.

Just like the people in the square in front of the Temple Church, everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they heard the news, as long as it wasn't a terrorist attack!

Of course, there are also many people who are sighing!

What a great opportunity, it's such a pity that it was cracked like this.

After a short pause, Prince William's voice came out again, reaching everyone's ears.

"Just now a reporter friend asked, the explosion on Fleet Street has just happened and the smoke has not yet cleared. At such a moment, why did we rush to the Temple Church? Is it too risky?

In fact, long before the explosion, we had already left Buckingham Palace and rushed towards the Temple Church. When we were approaching the Temple Church, the explosion just happened, and we were also taken aback.

But the police quickly issued an emergency announcement to confirm that this was not a terrorist attack, so we set off again and rushed to the Temple Church. As for the purpose of our coming here, I can also tell you.

The gold crown of King Edward I previously discovered by the joint exploration team, as well as the crusading knight preparations of King Edward I and the Earl of Lancaster, are of great importance to the British royal family.

The reason why we took the risk to come here is to communicate with Mr. Steven to see if we can reach an agreement to take back those important antique cultural relics through a transaction..."

Obviously, Prince William didn't tell the whole truth, there was nothing but reality.

The golden crown of King Edward I and the priceless Crusader knight equipment were their goals, but the more important goal of their trip was the Stone of Destiny in Ireland.

He said nothing about the Irish Stone of Destiny.

On this occasion, even if he was killed, he would not dare to mention it. As long as he dared to leak the news of the existence of the Stone of Destiny in Ireland, Northern Ireland, and even the whole of Ireland, would be boiled in an instant.

At that time, the British may have no other choice but to send troops to suppress and put out fires everywhere.

While Prince William was answering questions from reporters and appeasing the public, the Temple Church had gradually calmed down, but the atmosphere was extremely tense, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.

The people who had poured into the temple church before like a tide gathered in the open space of the outer hall, crowded and overcrowded.

Surrounding the crowd, there were heavily armed London policemen and British soldiers, all of whom were on high alert.

They have received orders from their superiors to maintain order and ensure the safety of Prince Charles and Prince William to prevent any accidents from happening.

Moreover, the Metropolitan Police Chief who issued the order repeatedly emphasized that the identities of the people at the scene should not be investigated for the time being, as this will only intensify conflicts and even lead to fierce firefights, causing a large number of casualties.

Not only the Metropolitan Police Chief, Ye Tian, ​​also warned all the policemen and soldiers who entered the temple church through a loudspeaker not to check their identities for now, as that would only make the situation unmanageable.

Following the announcement of this order, everyone in the temple church secretly heaved a sigh of relief and somewhat relaxed.

Especially those guys who were hiding in the crowd and came for the treasures of the Knights Templar and the holy relics of Christianity, they finally let go of their grip on the handles of their guns, temporarily dispelling the idea of ​​rioting.

Each of them knew very well that given the current situation, it was impossible to take advantage of the chaos and rush into the inner sanctuary of the Temple Church to snatch the treasures of the Knights Templar and those holy relics of Christianity.

With the level of cruelty of that bastard Steven, even if all the ordinary people who poured into the Temple Church died, he would not remove those obstacles, let alone give up even a single copper coin.

During the speech, Prince William had finished answering the reporter's questions, and his voice also disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, under the protection of a large number of royal security personnel and several heavy police shields, Prince Charles and Prince William, as well as top experts and scholars such as the curator of the British Museum, filed in and entered the Temple Church.

At the same time, the nerves of many London policemen and British soldiers in the outer hall of the Temple Church were also tense to the extreme. Everyone's index finger was next to the trigger, ready to go into battle at any time.

Fortunately, there were no accidents. Amidst the warm applause, Prince Charles and Prince William and their party passed the outer hall smoothly and came to the obstacles in the central temple.
