Chapter 1096 The Beginning of Freedom

For the next period of time, Han Li returned to his original life of going to the cafeteria, dormitory, classroom, and library.

However, Han Li's pace and mentality slowed down at this moment, and he no longer had the sense of urgency he had when he first entered school.

When someone asked, Han Li smiled and mentioned the fact that there were too many people competing for his business recently, and at the same time implicitly expressed that he planned to go to other places after finishing this paper and defense.

Han Li not only said this, but also did it, and he also stuck to the time and got all the papers and defenses for this month and next month with Professor Rand Swanson.

This was also approved by Professor Rand Swanson after he got the (practice assessment form) submitted by Han Li and learned that he wanted to practice in the folk.

After all, for people like them who study [humanities and social sciences], simply collecting information from books, materials, and newspapers to write papers is rigid and soulless.

Really good papers are all practical, so it is inevitable to practice, explore, and investigate in society, and experience, explore, and discuss among the people.

Moreover, Han Li is a student of Professor De Swanson. Whatever progress and news the student has made in practice will benefit the tutor.

Because of these materials, the tutor can legitimately use them as the content of his own articles published in core journals.

(Generally, the tutor will nominate students who have made contributions in the preface, and will give students a signature if they have made greater contributions. As for the ranking, it depends on the mood; in general..)

Even if the students compile their own manuscripts and submit them to those authoritative and professional core journals, they still need the tutor's approval during this period, and use their own connections to greet some professionals.

Anyone who is not a fool will give the tutor a title of editor-in-chief or deputy editor-in-chief, otherwise the value of the paper will be greatly reduced, and if they meet a petty person, the article may not even pass the review.

(Don't believe that some foreign publications and institutions are fair. If they are really fair, why can only some articles and movies full of smears and denigrations in some big countries pass the review and win awards?)

It is precisely because of this situation that both sides benefit from cooperation that Professor Rand Swanson not only agreed to Han Li's doing so, but also gave him a green light for future practice.

It means that if Han Li cannot return to school on time during the critical period of practice and inspection, he can make a phone call and he will help Han Li postpone the paper and defense every month.

This kind of postponement does not deduct credits. If the content and level of the paper submitted by Han Li after returning are very high and pass the review, he can also get a large amount of credits.

After obtaining the approval of Professor Rand Swanson, Han Li returned to the dormitory to pack up his pitiful luggage, said hello to his roommates, and temporarily left Niujing University with his guitar, easel, and drawing folder on his back.

From this time on, Han Li entered a time when the sea was wide for fish to leap and the sky was high for birds to fly in England.

As for the thesis, Han Li really didn't take it so seriously, because he had seen it clearly during this period of time.

In England, the locals seemed very polite and courteous, and they looked like gentlemen in movies and TV dramas.

But the coldness, alienation, and rejection in their eyes when they looked at outsiders, except for some people with deep thoughts, many people couldn't hide it at all.

Therefore, if Han Li wanted to successfully obtain the relevant graduation certificate, he needed to write more descriptions of flowers, prosperity, and prosperity in his thesis.

Against his will? It doesn't exist. Sometimes flattery and praise are also a strategy.

These are the papers submitted to the school. Han Li will write an extra copy of the real situation and hand it in after returning home, otherwise he will not be able to make up for the big words he said in front of the elders.

Han Li took his luggage and got on the bus, heading southeast to London.

At this time, Han Li was also in the mood to observe the surrounding situation seriously. How to say it? At least the situation from Niujing County to Renton was not very good.

After leaving Niujing County, there were factories and residential areas on both sides of the road, and many people with empty, numb and confused expressions gathered.

The reason for this situation is that England's domestic economy continues to be sluggish, factories have moved out of the city, and the unemployment rate has skyrocketed.

According to the relevant statistics that Han Li saw in the newspaper when he was in Niujing University, the population of England this year is about 56 million, but the number of unemployed people is almost 4 million.

Han Li came to Renton by watching the local customs and customs along the way. After getting off the car, he looked at the time. At this time, his family should have gotten up, so he ran directly to the big red telephone booth on the side of the road to call his family.

Some time ago, Han Li not only had poor food and accommodation at school, but also had to strictly control the time to call his family because international long-distance calls were too expensive.

(The big red telephone booth, like the big red double-decker bus, is a symbol of England in this era.)

Han Li felt much better after making the phone call this time. Not only did he reply to his parents, wife, and He Mi, he also heard the crying of the two little guys, Da and Xiao Ming.

In addition, Han Li learned from his mother that the superiors had ordered a crackdown on spontaneous dances in public places in June.

It is clearly stipulated that this kind of behavior and dance is regarded as an entertainment item with "vulgar and vulgar dance postures and immoral". The people reacted strongly and resolutely demanded that it be banned.

The organizers of the dance party will be given public security penalties in accordance with the "Public Security Management Punishment Regulations", and in serious cases, they will be held criminally responsible for the crime of "impeding social order."

The sub-district office has recently joined forces with other units to clean up and arrest people in parks, squares, restaurants, and streets. Now it has changed to cleaning up in nooks and crannies and remote areas.

Of course, He Mi's recent pregnancy is also the focus of Han Li's understanding. She has not had any obvious pregnancy symptoms so far, and her figure is not obvious. She still goes to school every week.

However, Han Ma and Qi Zhaodi are changing their ways to give He Mi extra food, and now her figure is much plumper.

After Han Li called his family, he thought for a while and dialed the number at his home in Repulse Bay, Xiangjiang.

Guan Zhilin was still asleep when he answered the phone, and his tone of voice was hazy and lazy.

But when she heard Han Li's voice, she first let out a cheer of surprise, and then she started to talk about her thoughts, academic problems, and recent events.

After Han Li hung up the call on Guan Zhilin, he immediately called Lawyer Jin again.

After a brief chat, when Han Li walked out of the big red phone booth again, he only had the drawing board as a disguise, but he also had an extra briefcase, which contained Han Li's remaining items in Xiangjiang. More than two million Hong Kong dollars.

Next, Han Li found a bank and exchanged all the more than two million Hong Kong dollars in the decomposition space into British currency.

Han Li twitched his mouth twice when he came out of the bank. He did not expect that the disparity between Hong Kong dollars and British dollars would reach such a disparity of 1:10.8. Even so, the bank looked very reluctant.

But this is also normal. If Yingjili is not ruthless, how can it harvest Xiangjiang's assets?

Han Li next went to a department store, where he bought himself two sets of clothes, a Leica M5 camera and numerous films, developers and other items.

This really started his trip to Renton, but Han Li discovered it after walking around.

The quality of the citizens of Renton is really not that good. Many people just find a corner to relieve themselves when they need to urinate.

Especially on the subway, at one corner someone was unbuttoning his pants and leaking water, and at another corner a young man and woman were hugging each other and kissing passionately.

You can smoke freely on the subway, and men and women huddle together without caring about others, telling adult jokes unscrupulously.

If what Han Li saw near Oxford University were all traditional English clothes, then the young people in Renton were dressed in very different ways.

But if Han Li was asked to say what was different about them, he couldn't tell. It doesn't mean that they are gender-neutral. Many of them have tattoos. It doesn't mean that they dye their hair bright red and colorful, which means they are different.

Their actions were nothing to Han Li, who had lived in two lifetimes. He had seen even more outrageous things in his previous life, but the situation before him made him feel an indescribable and strange feeling in his heart.

Han Li took the subway, bus, and taxi to wander around the area and found out.

There are many police cars, cleaning trucks, and related personnel in wealthy areas, and the various facilities there are in pretty good condition.

However, the public security and sanitation situation in ordinary areas is not very good. Except for the sanitation of the roads, which seems to be cleaned, other places can be described as sweeping the snow in front of the door.

However, when Han Li came to areas such as Newcastle, graffiti was painted on the walls and a lot of rubbish was piled on the ground. Both adults and children looked at other people with wariness, and even the air was full of vigilance. There is a depressing atmosphere flowing.

These conditions were the product of the Great Depression and severe high unemployment, and they were also one of the best materials that Han Li handed over after returning to China.

Han Li wanted to find someone here to understand, and at the same time carefully observed the surrounding situation and the lives of these people, only to realize that it was already getting late.

In this case, no one knew what would happen at night in such an area. Han Li didn't care about fists, kicks, and swords, but what about gunshots in the night?

A gentleman cannot stand a dangerous wall, so Han Li could only pick up distinctive people and objects with his camera, take two quick photos, and then leave. He would come back another day to find out.

Next, Han Li went to a good hotel to check in, but by the time Han Li came out of the hotel and planned to find a good restaurant to improve his life, the sky had already turned completely dark.

Han Li was walking on the street and found that there were many men, women, and young people in strange and awkward costumes who were walking in groups towards various bars and nightclubs in the streets that were originally empty during the day.

This situation quickly aroused Han Li's interest, but it was impossible not to eat. After eating five steaks, a plate of fried bacon, two bowls of macaroni and a large glass of Coke at a nearby restaurant, he headed towards Walk to a nearby bar.

This trip really opened Han Li's eyes.
