Chapter 129: Leave a Suicide Note in the Declaration of Independence Day!
The next day.
Another test was scheduled for two days later.
Because this test was different from the previous ones, this time it was a manned test.
There was a lot of preparation work in the early stages. In order to ensure the safety of the followers to a great extent, all aspects had to be carried out very strict tests and preparations.
Also, the mindset adjustment of Raymond and the other followers was also extremely important.
They also had to carry out a lot of preparatory work.
Psychological construction, psychological recovery, withstanding pressure, and so on.
Because, who was the first time that the Q-01 nuclear submarine carried people, a lot of equipment, and operating methods were unfamiliar to them.
There was also the cooperation between the personnel. These were to be simply trained in advance.
These were all part of the preparations.
Moreover, the higher-ups paid special attention to this test, which carried the hope of the United States.
The safety of the people who followed them was even more important.
Raymond, the Secretary of Defense, the military officers, and some scientists.
These personnel configurations could be said to be the backbone of the United States. If anything happened to them, it would be a great blow to the entire United States.
Of course, the upper echelons of the United States took this matter very seriously.
The President spoke directly.
If anything happened to the people who went into the water with the nuclear submarine, all their families would receive the highest standard of treatment and receive the best care.
At this time, they deserved what the United States should do for them!
Therefore, this was the reason why the test was delayed by two days.
Of course, there was another important reason.
Two days later, it was the 4th of July, Independence Day!
…
“Professor Raymond!”
At this time, a rough voice sounded behind Raymond.
“Captain Shroff.”
Raymond turned around and saw Shroff. He smiled and greeted him.
Shroff was the new commander this time. In other words, after all the tests were over, he would be the captain of the Q-01 nuclear submarine.
He was also one of the people who stood out during this manned dive.
“You’re here to…”
Shroff looked at the note in Raymond’s hands and stopped talking.
Raymond nodded. “Do you know how to do it, Captain Shroff?”
The air around them was filled with a sad atmosphere. Both of them were silent. There was nothing left to say to each other.
This matter was very heavy. Now that they were chatting, both of them felt their hearts become particularly heavy.
Raymond walked in front and said, “Let’s go, Captain Shroff. Don’t let them wait too long.”
Shroff looked up with a forced smile on his face. “Okay, let’s go!”
As the two of them spoke, they walked in front of the relevant personnel and placed their respective notes in front of the relevant personnel.
These suicide notes were sealed by the relevant personnel. If there were any problems in testing the waters, the relevant personnel would personally deliver these suicide notes to the family members.
“Thank you for your selfless dedication.”
A woman from the American Research Laboratory walked up to the two of them and bowed deeply.
The two men behind her followed the woman to work and bowed to the two of them.
This morning, they had repeated this action more than a dozen times.
However, the three of them did not complain at all. Instead, they felt grateful every time.
It was precisely because of people like Raymond and Shroff that the United States had the strong peace and freedom it had today. It was also because of people like them that the United States had today!
Such people were worth it!
Raymond and Shroff smiled and turned to leave.
“Professor Raymond, please wait a moment.”
At this moment, the woman suddenly shouted.
“What’s the matter?” Raymond turned his head and asked in puzzlement.
The woman took a few steps forward and came a meter away from Raymond. She said with difficulty, “Professor Raymond, can you put your suicide note in the Independence Day Program as a public speech?”
This request was requested by her superior. It was not for the program’s effect, but to use Raymond’s suicide note to show the public the dangerous situation faced by the scientists who were fighting on the front lines.
To let everyone in the United States know that under the current appearance of peace, there was still a group of people who had silently sacrificed themselves for the United States. Even if they had to sacrifice their lives, they had to shoulder the heavy responsibility for the public and continue to move forward!
Moreover, her superior had repeatedly warned her that she had to obtain Raymond’s consent before she could use it on the show.
All of this depended on Raymond’s personal wishes.
If Raymond really did not want to make it public, she naturally would not force it.
The woman bit her lips, her expression a little unnatural.
“Sure, no problem.”
Raymond smiled.
Then, he turned around with Captain Shroff and walked towards the interior of the research institute.
The woman was stunned, and tears filled her eyes. “Thank you, Professor Raymond, for your contribution to the United States!”
The woman bowed deeply again in Raymond’s direction.
…
Two days later.
July 4th.
On this day, the research personnel for the Q-01 nuclear submarine was a very important day for the upper echelons of the United States.
Today, the Q-01 nuclear submarine would carry out a manned water test.
The President, the Secretary of State, and the military officers paid special attention to this water test.
Everyone was very nervous and excited!
The entire research institute was bustling with activity, and the atmosphere was tense and serious.
No one in the entire research institute was idle. They were all preparing to test the water.
America’s major television stations were also filled with a tense atmosphere. These places were just like the research institute.
Everyone in the entire television station was busy.
Today, regardless of whether it was the Q-01 nuclear submarine testing the waters, a special program on Independence Day would be broadcast from here shortly.
At this moment, in the news studio.
A staff member came to the producer’s side. “Producer Hawkins, everything is ready. You can broadcast the special program at any time.”
With that, Producer Hawkins looked at his watch and confirmed the time. “It’s time. Let’s start broadcasting.”
As soon as he said that, the entire live broadcast room immediately became busy.
A male and a female host started broadcasting.
“Hello, everyone. Welcome to today’s Independence Day farewell program.”
“Today’s special program will talk about those people behind the scenes who have silently contributed to the United States.”
