The classic old drama "Before Dawn" from 10 years ago is worth revisiting again and again. Not to mention the battle of wits between the protagonists, even the inconspicuous supporting roles are very brilliant, and although some people do not appear much, their plot is also very deep, and their situation is thought-provoking.
For example, Zhou Hanting, a member of the Sailors Organization, although his plot is very scattered, this character runs through the entire plot, and he is also an important part of the final exposure of the Sailors Organization.
One of the most important reasons is that Zhou Hanting took in a patriotic young woman He Xiuning, and since then he has become the bag of Lao Tan, but unfortunately he did not realize it at all, and finally died in the peace dock in order to cover Zhuang Yunqing's departure, he sacrificed for his faith, worthy of admiration!
However, because of his negligence, the Sailors Organization was put into a dangerous situation, although excusable, but also regrettable and lamentable, although because the enemy was too cunning, he also had an unshirkable responsibility.
How could a veteran agent be so negligent and fall into the trap of non-staff personnel step by step, probably not only because of the beauty plan, the reasons behind it are worth pondering.
01, He Xiuning, once a patriotic youth, went astray and was used
He Xiuning, also known as Lin Yan, was a female college student and a hot-blooded young man who had joined a radical group in the name of the Communist Party and was arrested and imprisoned by the government at the time.
Tan Zhongshu wanted to dig out the Mariner Organization, but the undercover agents of the Eighth Innings had not yet been found, so he had to find an outsider.
By chance, Tan Zhongshu found and selected He Xiuning from many people, threatened her mother and brother's lives, asked her to complete a task for herself, and promised to give her freedom and the life she wanted after the matter was completed.
What Tan Zhongshu asked He Xiuning to do was to go undercover agents, and He Xiuning had only engaged in some rallies and parades and the like, and had never engaged in the training of agents or engaged in related activities.
And the reason why Lao Tan chose her is nothing more than three reasons.
- First, He Xiuning's past experience, she is just a patriotic youth, has not participated in the secret service organization, the foundation is relatively clean.
- Second, this person looks good, after all, a beautiful girl is easy to arouse a man's desire to protect, especially when this beautiful girl encounters a threat to her life, men, especially men with a little hot blood, will not stay out of the matter.
- Third, because you have not been trained as a secret agent, you may inadvertently show some panic and uneasiness, and you will not be able to do it like a veteran agent, but because it is real, it is easier to get the trust of an old agent.
At the same time, Li Bohan, with the help of Ding San, found Zhou Hanting in thousands of photos.
After listening to Li Bohan's report, Tan Zhongshu put forward a request, that is, after Zhou Hanting was completely exposed, Li would give up the investigation of the case, in fact, Old Tan took the opportunity to install He Xiuning next to Zhou Hanting.
Because Tan Zhongshu understood that due to the particularity of the sailor organization, even if Zhou Hanting was arrested, the members of the sailor organization would immediately be silent, then all the clues would be interrupted, so it was better to keep Zhou Hanting and put a long line to catch big fish.
I have to say that Lao Tan's practice has indeed caused the Sailor Organization to be destroyed and destroyed as never before.
And Tan Zhongshu's most important step in this move is He Xiuning's chess piece, if He Xiuning is exposed, then not only will the sailor organization be safe and sound, but even Zhou Hanting will escape.
And it turns out that Lao Tan chose a non-staff member without any experience as a secret agent, and the result was very successful, which shows that he really understands human nature.
02, Zhou Hanting, a well-trained veteran agent
Zhou Hanting is an experienced agent who has shown superb professional qualities.
Due to the rebellion of Qin Youtian in the sailor organization, which led to the arrest of Zheng Tong'en and Yu Fengju one after another, the military master Bian Rinan arranged for Zhou Hanting to replace the two of them, first to the Sihe Bank to withdraw the activity funds placed by Yu Fengju, and then to take out the blank false identity certificate in the toilet of the Food De Pavilion.
Unexpectedly, these activity areas of his are just within the scope of Li Bohan's monitoring, originally these two places are not far apart, and when he works in two different scenes, the attire and dress on his body are completely two different types, which is not in line with people's common sense.
Constantly changing outfits in order not to attract attention, and this is precisely one of the important symbols of a secret agent, so it attracted the attention of Li Bohan,
It can be seen that Zhou Hanting's first exposure and He Xiuning's undercover success both illustrate a truth: undisguised disguise is the best disguise.
However, Zhou Hanting was not an idle person, and even if Li Bohan followed and listened to him, he did not find further evidence and clues.
Later, according to the intelligence transmitted by Liu Xinjie, Zhou Hanting knew that he had been monitored, in fact, this was also the bait thrown by Tan Zhongshu, and Lao Tan took the opportunity to find out the internal traitors in the eight innings.
In order to protect the sailors and Liu Xinjie, Zhou Hanting lived as usual according to the instructions of the military division, remained silent, and did not do any activities or contact with the organization.
His performance during this time is impeccable, so that Li Bohan can't find a single flaw and clue. Even though He Xiuning inquired many times and probed from the side, he never heard the source of the news.
Because of this, after the Tumen River Hotel in Bian Ri Nan was exposed, the sailors would think of replacing Bian Ri Nan with Zhou Han Ting as a military division, and if there was no He Xiuning's appearance, then things would develop in a good direction.
However, Zhou Hanting had a fluke mentality because of this, perhaps because he had been lurking for a long time and would slowly adapt to that harsh environment, thus producing a paralyzing psychology.
Therefore, after Zhou Hanting escaped from the surveillance and changed his identity, he did not look at himself and the people around him very well, and sometimes the so-called luck may be a crisis and trap, but he did not realize this, thus leading himself and the sailor organization into the abyss.
03, why did the veteran agent Zhou Hanting lose to the non-staff personnel
Although Zhou Hanting had a high degree of vigilance, he was defeated by He Xiuning, a special agent's non-staff member.
- Zhou Hanting's first mistake was to take He Xiuning to his residence.
He Xiuning, a female college student who was demonstrating at the time, was hunted down by the police, and Zhou Hanting happened to be passing by, in fact, as a secret agent, it was best to stay away from this place of right and wrong, but out of justice, he chose to rescue each other, but a fatal mistake he made was to bring He Xiuning back to his residence.
You know, the residence of an agent is not only his personal secret, but also a secret of the organization.
- The second mistake Zhou Hanting made was to let He Xiuning live by his side all the time.
If it was because of unavoidable reasons, because He Xiuning fainted, and Zhou Hanting took her back to the residence, then He has been unwilling to leave, which should arouse Zhou Hanting's vigilance.
Although He Xiuning said that he was homeless for fear of being hunted down, this excuse was a bit too far-fetched.
After all, as a female college student who is not deeply involved in the world, how can she be willing to live in the home of a man she has never known, which is very abnormal in itself, and since she participated in the parade, it means that she has her own organization, but she has not been willing to go back, which is also unreasonable.
However, Zhou Hanting was blinded by her simple appearance and did not investigate deeply.
Later, Bian Rinan told Zhou Hanting that he was being followed, and also told him that He Xiuning had a problem with this person.
Of course, this only means that there is a problem with He Xiuning's identity, she is also known as Lin Yan, she is a member of the Iron Blood Youth League, and she has been expelled from the school.
Originally, Zhou Hanting was an important member of the Sailors Organization, and since He Xiuning was not a simple college student, Zhou Hanting should immediately send her away.
After returning home, he only asked He Xiuning about his identity, in fact, he knew in his heart that the wisest way was to let her leave here.
But perhaps it was the many days of getting along that made him feel compassion, or maybe he had some good feelings for this girl, and finally emotion overcame reason, and he left the time bomb around.
- The third mistake Zhou Hanting made was to take He Xiuning to a new stronghold and take her for his own use without any censorship.
After Zhou Hanting took over the post of military division, he did not do any investigation and examination of He Xiuning, and he was absorbed into his own organization, and the two pretended to be husband and wife, and also held important positions, resulting in the sailor organization and the sailor himself being completely exposed to the eyes of the enemy.
It can be seen that at this time, the relationship between the two has undergone great changes, And Zhou Hanting has completely trusted the people around him, and such negligence has brought ruin not only to him personally, but also to the sailor organization.
The fundamental reason is that Zhou Hanting overestimated his own ability, developed a desire to protect this seemingly poor female college student, was confused by her weak appearance and relaxed his vigilance, forgetting that he was in a dangerous situation, which led to the end of failure.
epilogue:
In the end, Zhou Hanting's contact point was taken by Chipperin, and people around the contact point called Zhou Hanting, who felt that things were not good, so he personally went to the peace pier to meet him, in order to rescue the sailor couple, he killed the agent, and was shot and killed by the agent when he opened the gate.
I don't know, when he is about to die, will he realize the fatal mistake he made, and will he suddenly wake up to the fact that He Xiuning is actually an undercover agent sent by Lao Tan?
Perhaps, everything doesn't matter anymore.
Originally, He Xiuning had already completed the task given by Tan Zhongshu and could retire, but she played a little clever at the last moment, and when she met Tan Zhongshu for the last time, she deliberately delayed the time, hoping to leave completely and not have to return to Zhou Hanting's side, but unfortunately was vetoed by Lao Tan.
When she returned home nervously, she was always worried, and when Chipperin came to kill her with her men, she was afraid and afraid to admit to Chipperin that she was Tan Zhongshu's person, so she was finally killed, and she died as her own.
If Zhou Hanting died of emotion defeating reason, then He Xiuning died because fear defeated reason.
