python返回函数

That seems pretty self-explanatory but as far as I can see return is inside a function.

这是我的代码:

def getLinks(self, url, fandom, soup):
    links = []

    searchElementDict = {
    'aff':'select', 'fcwd':'select', 'ffn':'select', 'tthm':'select', 'lua':'select', 'ffa':'select', 
    'hpfd':'select', 'phns':'select', 'mbba':'div', 'avgf':'div', 'mugn':'select', 'hpffa':'select',
    'hpff':'select',
    }
    if fandom in searchElementDict:
        searchElement = searchElementDict[fandom]

    searchElementForDict = {
    'aff':'name', 'fcwd':'name', 'ffn':'title', 'tthm':'name', 'lua':'class', 'ffa':'class',
    'hpfd':'name', 'phns':'name', 'mbba':'id', 'avgf':'id', 'mugn':'name', 'hpffa':'name',
    'hppf':'name',
    }
    if fandom in searchElementForDict:
        searchElementFor = searchElementForDict[fandom]

    withValueDict = {
    'aff':'chapnav', 'fcwd':'goto', 'ffn':'Chapter Navigation', 'tthm':'chapnav', 'lua':'textbox',
    'ffa':'locationSelect', 'hpfd':'sid', 'phns':'chao', 'mbba':'mibba-layout-parts', 'avgf':'chapters',
    'mugn':'chapter', 'hpffa':'chapter', 'hpff':'chapterid',
    }
    if fandom in withValueDict:
        withValue = withValueDict[fandom]   
    try:    
        if fandom == 'mbba' or fandom == 'avgf':
            chapterGroup = soup.find(searchElement, attrs={searchElementFor : withValue})
            individualChapters = chapterGroup.findAll('a')
            for each in individualChapters:         
                chapterLink = each['href']
                links.append(chapterLink)       
        else:   
            chapterGroup = soup.find(searchElement, attrs={searchElementFor : withValue})
            individualChapters = chapterGroup.findAll('option', attrs={'value=':''})
            for each in individualChapters:         
                chapterLink = each.get('value')
                links.append(chapterLink)
            if fandom == 'fcwd':
                del links[0]
            elif fandom == 'hpfd' or fandom == 'hpff':
                del links[0]
                del links[0]
    except:
        links.append(1) 


    return links

我显然错过了一些东西，我只是想不通什么.
