Ukiyo-e in Bacheng—Jimmy McNulty

Nothing can be more accurate than the assessment of his immediate leader Jay, as quoted here: He is a black sheep, an eternal exile. He does not beg for mercy from his bosses, and he has never been pityed, but he hasn't changed. He is a stubborn Irishman, wandering outside the northeastern suburbs of Ba City, just to obtain a police badge. He despises authority, he does whatever he wants and speaks freely, but in the end, he can give you the truth.

He is a born policeman.

He has worked with us for thirteen years, not enough to get a pension, but enough to let us know that even though he has insignificant Irish ancestry, there are many defects in his personality, and his sobriety and cleanliness from time to time, he He is a real policeman.

For Jimmy, maybe no matter how careless he is, he has no sense of responsibility to the family, he drinks heavily, and hurts those who have helped him before, I can hardly lose my good feelings for him. This is a true prodigal, a brave man who is fearless and indomitable. We all know such people, they will more or less have some irreparable defects in their personality, but in any case, we understand in our hearts that they are always the most admirable group of people, and they are paranoia worthy of true respect in this world. And lunatics.

The world is always changed because of them.
