By the time the interview ended, it was already ten in the morning.
At the main entrance of the Blue Palace, the president's Cadillac No. 1 was parked there quietly.
Former President Lucian was deleting the iris, fingerprint, voice, and other information he had entered in the Cadillac No. 1 control bag.
The transfer of power of the president began from this moment.
After Lu Xi'an deleted his relevant information, Andy began to enter his relevant information into the control package.
The control package in the Cadillac One was a voice and data transmission device that could connect the presidential vehicle directly to the Blue Palace communication station, even in the desert where there was no signal, or even on the moon.
With this control package, Andy could directly give orders to the Blue Palace and exercise his presidential command and control even if he was in the car.
"Scanning iris, please wait…"
The mechanical intelligence's voice rang out, and a ray of light swept across Andy's eyes.
"Iris registration successful…"
Digital passwords were an unsafe encryption method that had long been eliminated.
In order to use the presidential control package, one had to meet the three requirements of voice, fingerprint, and iris.
It could be said that the level of confidentiality had reached the top level on Earth. Compared to the nuclear weapon code, it only lacked a genetic encryption technology.
After Andy finished recording his information, he completely mastered the usage of the control package under the explanation of the Blue Palace staff.
At the same time, it also meant that this Cadillac No. 1 presidential car had officially changed owners.
After the Blue Palace, Lucian once again lost the right to use the president's car.
If he wanted to sit in the Cadillac No. 1 again, he would have to wait for Andy's invitation.
……
The American flag and the presidential flag, which symbolized President Andy's identity, were inserted in the front of the car. The Cadillac No. 1 presidential car slowly drove out of the Blue Palace and headed for the Pentagram building.
There was a very simple way to determine whether the president was sitting in Cadillac No. 1.
That was to look at the flag.
If there was only the American flag on the front of the car, it meant that the president was not sitting in the car.
If the front of the car had both the American flag and the president's flag, it meant that the president was traveling.
When the president went out, the police stations in all the states had to send police officers to maintain local order and ensure the president's safety.
On the way to the Pentagram building, Lucian was depressed.
His four years as president were the most glorious days of his life.
But now, he was going to hand over the power he once held to Andy.
This feeling was too heartbreaking and uncomfortable.
He finally understood his bad mood four years ago.
Looking at Andy, who was sitting in the seat that had always belonged to him, Lucian sighed heavily.
The world was like this. It was cruel to replace the old with the new.
……
The president's trip was very grand.
On one hand, it was to protect the president's safety, and on the other hand, it was to highlight the president's identity.
When the Cadillac 1 arrived at the Pentagram building, a group of US government officials were already waiting there.
Like the Blue Palace, the pentagram symbolized the US government.
The Blue Palace was more of the president's private office and resting place, while the Pentagram building was the headquarters of the US's highest military authority, the US Department of Defense.
Therefore, the term pentagram building not only represented the building itself, but it was also often used as a synonym for the US Department of Defense and even the US military authorities.
Of course, in addition to the headquarters of the Ministry of National Defense, the United States Joint Chiefs of Staff and the headquarters of the three armed forces were also located here.
The Five-pointed Star Building was huge. It was the largest single administrative building in the world.
The building covered an area of 2,359,000 square meters, with a total of five floors and a height of 22 meters. Of course, there was also the underground level that no one knew about!
The car door opened, and Andy walked out of the Cadillac 1 under Scarlet's protection.
The Ministry of Defense officials who had been waiting at the door for a long time immediately saluted Andy. Minister of Defense Anthony, Deputy Minister Jimira, and the marshals of the three armed forces walked forward and introduced themselves to Andy.
"Mr. President, welcome to the Pentagram Building. I am Anthony, the Minister of Defense."
"Nice to meet you, Mr. President. I'm the Deputy Minister of Defense, Jimira.”
" Mr. President, I'm the Field Marshal…"
" Good morning, Mr. President. I'm the Admiral…"
" Air Force Marshal…"
After the six of them shook hands and exchanged a few pleasantries, they walked into the building.
There were banks, bookstores, post offices, medical centers, telegram offices, and various shops on the first floor of the pentagon. It was not the main office space.
After a short tour, the Minister of Defense led Andy to the second floor.
The layout of the second floor was completely different from the first floor. It was covered with golden carpets, giving off a noble and imposing feeling.
The Joint Chiefs of Staff Council, which was supported by the soul of the Ministry of Defense, was on the second floor. People habitually called the second floor of the Pentagram building the Golden Hall.
The third floor was the office of the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of the Army. There was also a Hall of Heroes at the corner of the corridor.
The Hall of Heroes was set up to commemorate the highest medal of honor winner since the War of independence. There were more than 3000 bronze medals hanging here, engraved with their names, hometown, and resumes.
Above the third floor were the US Navy Headquarters and Air Force Headquarters.
The headquarters of the Ministry of National Defense and the three armed forces operated at high speed in this building. All military orders were issued from here.
Accompanied by the Minister of Defense and the Marshal of the Navy, Air Force, and Ground Forces, Andy finished touring the Pentagram building.
Next was the focus of today's schedule-the presidential power transfer!
……
In the conference room on the fifth floor of the Pentagram building.
The Minister of Defense, the Deputy Minister of Defense, the Navy Marshal, the Air Force Marshal, and the Field Marshal were all gathered together.
They handed over one document after another to Andy and Lucian.
Lu Xi'an signed first, Andy signed later.
Every stroke of the pen meant that a presidential power was transferred from Lucian to Andy.
When all the documents were signed, more than half an hour had passed.
Finally, the Minister of Defense said," Mr. President and Mr. Lucian, please follow me to the basement."”
The basement of the Pentagram building, the legendary location of absolute secrecy.
The Secretary of Defense invited Andy and Lucian to the basement for the last part of the presidential power transfer-the nuclear code!
