Such a trivial matter, and it actually alarmed the police.

However, the arrival of the police was a good thing, as they could better handle the fight between two adult men.

"Officer Liu."

Ding Yue saw that the officer getting out of the police car was somewhat familiar.

He was an officer from the University Town police station, quite handsome, and had some connections with Mist City Arts and Science University.

"Principal Ding, what’s the situation here? We received a report that someone was fighting in the hotel on campus."

Officer Liu greeted Ding Yue upon seeing him and then inquired about the situation.

"I’ve just received the news myself and have come over. Let’s go together and take a look."

As Ding Yue spoke, he and Officer Liu walked into the lobby of the campus hotel together.

Seeing Principal Ding and the officer arrive, the hotel staff hurriedly approached and said, "Principal Ding, you’re finally here."

"What’s going on here?"

Ding Yue took a look and could easily identify the two who were fighting.

Both middle-aged men were visibly injured.

One with a swollen nose and bruised face.

The other seemed to have a bit of blood on the left side of his forehead, though it was unclear if he’d bumped it or been struck with a blunt object.

For the time being, the two middle-aged men were restrained by the security guards.

"Principal Ding, these two gentlemen quarreled over the only room in our hotel that became available, starting from verbal disputes, they ended up fighting," the hotel manager immediately reported the situation to Principal Ding.

"Is there surveillance footage?"

Officer Liu asked the lobby manager.

"Yes, there is."

The lobby manager nodded.

Then Officer Liu looked towards Principal Ding and said, "Principal Ding, regarding this matter, let’s see if the two men can be reconciled. Otherwise, we will have to take them back to the station."

"Alright."

Ding Yue, hearing this, agreed with Officer Liu’s method.

First, to see if the two middle-aged men who fought could be reconciled, after all, this matter, big as it may not be,

was not exactly small either.

Since they’d come to blows causing visible injuries and had the police called, if the police were to get involved, they’d have to take the men back to the station.

Since it happened within the school, it was also considered a disruption of public order.

"Xiao Zhang, go check the surveillance footage and gather some evidence," Officer Liu said to a young officer by his side.

"Okay."

Monitoring and gathering evidence were mainly about identifying how the dispute started and who threw the first punch.

Through surveillance and questioning the hotel staff, it should be possible to determine who was at fault.

Of course,

all this would only be relevant if reconciliation failed.

If the two men made up, Officer Liu and his colleagues wouldn’t take anyone back, and the incident could be resolved.

"Gentlemen, first of all, we are very pleased that you brought your children to study at Mist City Arts and Science University. However, this is a place for teaching and nurturing young minds, and your fighting in the campus hotel is not creating the best influence," Ding Yue stepped forward and said to the two middle-aged men.

"I regret it, I really regret it now..."

One of the middle-aged men seemed to realize his mistake and started shaking his head and sighing as he spoke.

"Ah, that’s more like it. Those who can recognize their own errors are generally quite admirable," Ding Yue said with a smile upon hearing this.

"I really regret it, regret not coming earlier, regret not hitting harder when I had the chance!"

However, the man expressing regret glared at the other middle-aged man across from him, angrily saying.

Ding Yue: ...

What a piece of work!

I actually thought this guy really regretted starting a fight, but it turns out you’re upset that you didn’t hit hard enough?

"Bring it on. Scared of you? Not at all!"

The other middle-aged man also seemed to be just as angry, immediately getting irritated by the regretful man’s words.

This...

The air was absolutely thick with tension!

Ding Yue shook his head helplessly and tried one last time to persuade them, saying, "Gentlemen, calm down, it’s not worth it all for a hotel room. You came here happily to register your children, right?"

Ding Yue’s words seemed to have no effect on the two middle-aged men.

If this were a student at Mist City Arts and Science University, such words from Ding Yue would certainly be educational.

However, unfortunately,

these two middle-aged men were not students but parents of students here.

Even if Ding Yue had a Prop Card, it wouldn’t have any effect on the two men.

"Come on then, I won’t be satisfied until you admit defeat today!"

The regretful man was also hot-tempered and immediately prepared to go up and punch the other middle-aged man again.

"What’s all this what’s all this!"

Officer Liu immediately stepped forward with a commanding presence, warning them, "If you keep this up, does that mean you can’t resolve the issue peacefully?"

Seeing the police step in, the two middle-aged men finally stopped their anger from escalating further.

Even if their anger continued to rise, it didn’t matter.

The security was still holding on to the two men.

The officers had spoken, and if they couldn’t resolve the issue peacefully, chances were that both could be directly taken to the station by the officer.

"Do you two want to stay in the hotel tonight, or would you prefer the station?" Principal Ding said calmly to the two middle-aged men.

It seemed that reasoning with them wouldn’t work, so let them make their own choice.
