This question involved the plot of The Silent Truth and the author's intention in writing it. In the original ending of the novel, the main character Fang Yuan had successfully exposed the truth of Zhu Xiao Bei's murder, but Fang Yuan was forced to flee overseas and could not return to China to face Zhu Xiao Bei's pursuit. There were some problems with this ending because the author did not give enough explanation at the end and did not leave enough room for the reader's imagination, causing the reader to be confused and puzzled about the protagonist's escape. Therefore, the author modified the ending of the novel so that the protagonist could finally return to China to uncover the true cause of Zhu Xiaobei's death and pay the price for his previous actions of exposing the case. This revised ending better expressed the author's interpretation of the novel's theme and allowed the readers to better understand the protagonist's behavior and meaning.
