补充点原著里的小细节

原著里男主认为自己背叛了Sophie，而不仅仅是没保护好她。开始他对她撒谎了说没有把文件泄露给任何人。后来他渐渐体会到了这个女子的为人和内心其实很有大义，所以随着对她的了解增多，他对她的愧疚感也在加深。书中描写的很合理。下面是他的独白。Ilovedyou,thoughtJonathanuselessly.Meetyourpast-tenselover.Ilovedyoubutbetrayedyouinstead,toapompousBritishspyIdidn’tevenlike.BecauseIwasonhislittlelistofpeoplewhowouldalwaysdotheirbitwhenthebuglewent.BecauseIwasOneofUs—UsbeingEnglishmenofself-evidentloyaltyanddiscretion.UsbeingGoodChaps.Ilovedyoubutneverquitegotaroundtosayingsoatthetime.”接下来一段算对Sophie的人物刻画。“ThisiswhereIbroughthim,”shesays.Onesideofhermouthisridiculouslyswollen.Shespeaksthroughaholeintheotherside.“Why?”saysJonathan,meaning:Whyareyounowbringingme?“‘Lookatthesepeople,Freddie,’Itoldhim.‘Eachtimesomeonesellsweaponstoanothertin-potArabtyrant,thesepeoplestarvealittlemore.Doyouknowthereason?Listentome,Freddie.Becauseitis”“morefuntohaveaprettyarmythantofeedthestarving.YouareanArab,Freddie.NevermindthatweEgyptianssaywearenotArabs.WeareArabs.IsitrightthatyourArabbrothersshouldbethefleshtopayforyourdreams?’”“Isee,”saysJonathan,withtheembarrassmentofanEnglishmanwhenfacedwithpoliticalemotion.“‘Wedonotneedleaders,’Isaid.‘ThenextgreatArabwillbeahumblecraftsman.Hewillmakethingsworkandgivethepeopledignityinsteadofwar.Hewillbeanadministrator,notawarrior.Hewillbelikeyou,Freddie,asyoucouldbeifyougrewup.’”“WhatdidFreddiesay?”saysJonathan.Hersmashedfeaturesac”“accusehimeverytimehelooksatthem.Thebruisesroundhereyesareturningtoblueandyellow.“Hetoldmetomindmyownbusiness.”Hecatchesthechokeoffuryinhervoice,andhisheartsinksfurther.“Itoldhimitwasmybusiness!Lifeanddeatharemybusiness!Arabsaremybusiness!Hewasmybusiness!”Andyouwarnedhim,hethinks,sickened.Youlethimknowyouwereaforcetobereckonedwith,notaweakwomantobediscardedathiswhim.Youlethimguessthatyoutoohadyoursecretweapon,andyouthreatenedtodowhatIdid,withoutknowingI’ddoneitalready.还有一段Sophie对Roper的看法：“Roperistheworstmanintheworld,”sheannounces.Jonathan’sexperienceoftheworld’svillainsislimited.Hisinstinctistoblamehimselffirstandothersafterwards.“Iguessanyoneinhisbusinessisprettyfrightful,”hesays.“Hehasnoexcuse,”sheretorts,unappeasedbyhismoderation.“Heishealthy.Heiswhite.Heisrich.Heiswellborn,welleducated.Hehasgrace.”Roper’senormitygrowsasshecontemplateshisvirtues.“Heisateasewiththeworld.Heisamusing.Confident.Yethedestroysit.Whatismissinginhim?”Shewaitsforhimtosaysomething,butinvain.“Howdoeshecometobelikethis?Hewasnotdraggedupinthebackstreets.Heisblessed.Youareaman.Perhapsyouknow.”总之看剧的时候觉得Sophie是自己作死的，看完原著改变了对她的看法，一个风尘女子却这样有自己的原则。男主内心不仅有愧疚感也有羞愧感。因为他匿名举报其实也没有多高尚的动机。习惯使然。很可惜电视剧没拍出来这些细节。最后剧透一下下如果电视剧按原著走的话最后男主和Jed都没死，貌似隐姓埋名一起生活了。
