The climax of the whole movie should start when Ni Yongxiao was arrested for dealing with foreigners, so the cleaning mode began. And if we push it further, we can find that the clue to the arrest actually comes down to the small yellow note at the birthday party. As to whether Ni Yongxiao deliberately threw it into the trash can for Chen Yongren to pick it up, we cannot just read it on purpose. Chen Yongren glanced at Chen Yongren and called Chen Yongren to take a photo at the end. It was speculated that it was a test, because seeing Chen Yongren may be unintentional or intentional, but in the end, just after picking up the note and calling to take a photo, I think it is a coincidence, because it really happened. Just missing him. .
We must jump out. From the perspective of the general environment, Ni Yongxiao's last box contains the video footage of the night, and this is what he wants to show to Achang and Ahuang, so it can be inferred that Ni Yongxiao was deliberately arrested. That is to say, the note was indeed released on purpose, but it is uncertain whether it was to test Chen Yongren, because we still missed one person, Luo Ji, who had been undercover for seven years. When he was picking up the note by Chen Yongren, the director specially gave him He caught a shot that he was looking at, and when he went on a mission, when Chen Yongren was using Morse code, he was looking at Chen Yongren deliberately, so even if Chen Yongren didn't pick it up, he would pick it up and the news was revealed.
In the end, I still have to say that Ni Yongxiao grabbed Chen Yongren's clothes when he fell before his death, and found a bug in the clothes. I think Ni Yongxiao wanted to know whether Chen Yongren's younger brother was undercover before he died, and wanted to know the answer, because When a normal person fell down and grabbed the clothes, they should have been put them in, but Ni Yongxiao meant to pull the clothes out. After seeing the answer, he finally chose to protect his younger brother and cover it. Before he died, the tears in the corners of his eyes and The beating of the corner of his left eye also showed that he was not at peace at this time. Maybe there was disappointment after knowing the answer in his heart. Maybe the deeper level was his disgust for the police and his anger at being unable to get rid of the underworld all his life.
In general, it is true that Ni Yongxiao's performance adds some family warmth to the group in the struggle. It may be said at the beginning of the third part that things can change people, but people can't change things.
