Chen Mo is like this, very competitive. When Zhu Yuanxiang and Xiao Yuxian heard this, they both laughed. The three of them became even closer after this incident, chatting happily and completely forgetting what had just happened.

After a few minutes, the door to the temporary detention room was pushed open, and a middle-aged man in his forties walked in. He glanced at the three of them expressionlessly and then said in a deep voice, "You three, come with me."

The three of them got up and followed the man to the police station's meeting room, where three young men with bandaged heads and an old man were sitting.

The three young men with bandaged heads were likely the three college students whose heads had been broken. When they saw Chen Mo and the others enter, the three college students glared at them angrily.

The middle-aged man led the three of them to sit down and then said to the old man with gray hair sitting at the back, "Director Wu, can we start now?"

Director Wu nodded expressionlessly and said, "Yes, let's start."

The middle-aged man turned to the six people involved in the incident and said, "Now you can defend your actions. Both sides can debate freely. The side that can make the other side speechless will be exempt from punishment."

When Chen Mo heard this, he gave Zhu Yuanxiang and Xiao Yuxian a meaningful look. Then he stood up and bowed to the three college students, saying, "I'm really sorry, gentlemen. We were wrong to throw stones at you. Please accept our sincere apologies. I'm sorry."

As the saying goes, one doesn't hit a smiling face. The three of them were originally full of anger, but seeing Chen Mo's sincere apology, their expressions softened. One of them said, "It's good that you know you were wrong. But you were really too harsh, didn't you think about the possibility of causing a fatality?!"

Chen Mo smiled humbly and asked, "You're right, we shouldn't have been so harsh. Do you know why?"

The college student was taken aback by this and then answered, "Do I need to ask? You were drunk, and you still have the smell of alcohol on you!"

Chen Mo had been waiting for this response. He immediately said, "We were indeed drunk. The smell of alcohol could be detected from a distance. Anyone could tell that we had lost our normal mental capacity. So why did you still engage in conflict with us?"

The college student immediately replied, "Because you were insulting us. We couldn't stand it and got into an argument, which eventually led to the fight."

Chen Mo nodded and said, "That's true, but you also know that drunk people are irrational and often speak nonsense, right? You can't just hit someone because they insult you when they're drunk. Gentlemen, you are college students; you should understand this, right?"

The three college students were speechless. Chen Mo's argument was very reasonable. Everyone knew that drunk people couldn't be treated like normal people. Knowing that someone was drunk and speaking nonsense, you still argued and fought with them—wasn't that just looking for trouble?

The three college students finally understood Chen Mo's intention. Although he had initially been very humble and apologized sincerely, he had then set a trap for them. Now they were in it, and it wasn't easy to get out. After all, his arguments were reasonable, and the two witnesses sitting beside them weren't fools. After Chen Mo's analysis, they would know who was right and who was wrong.

Even so, the three college students didn't want to sit idly by. One of them immediately said, "I heard you are all students in the天才少年班 (Genius Youth Class). How can you drink alcohol at such a young age? That's your fault, right?"

Chen Mo nodded sincerely again and said, "You're right, we are young and shouldn't drink. But you knew we were drunk and still treated us like normal people. Wasn't that even more wrong?"

The three college students were completely speechless. Chen Mo bowed again and said, "The gentleman just said we can debate freely, and the winning side can be exempt from punishment. I think both sides were at fault. There's no logic in saying that the side that wins the debate doesn't have to be punished. We are all young, and it's normal to be impulsive. Let's treat this as a profound lesson. We will all take it as a warning and ensure it doesn't happen again. What do you think, gentlemen?"

The three college students had originally thought they would definitely be reprimanded by the school's Director Wu. Hearing Chen Mo's defense, they immediately nodded in agreement. One of them said, "Yes, we will take it as a warning. After all, this wasn't our intention!"

Chen Mo was guiding the situation based on his assumption that the school would prefer to "make big things small and small things nothing." He was clearly right. The middle-aged man and Director Wu saw that both sides had reached an understanding and recognized their mistakes, and both of them couldn't help but smile.

The middle-aged man spoke first, "Director Wu, since they have already recognized their mistakes, I think we should let this go. What do you think?"

Director Wu nodded with a smile and said, "I agree. They are all young and prone to making mistakes. Since they have deeply realized their errors, we should give them a chance to correct themselves."

A major incident thus dissipated without a trace. The six parties involved shook hands in friendship, exchanged some encouraging words, and then left.

Chen Mo and the other two followed the middle-aged man out of the police station. Not far from the police station, the middle-aged man suddenly turned and asked, "You are Chen Mo, right?"

Chen Mo immediately replied, "Yes, sir, I am Chen Mo."

The middle-aged man nodded with a smile and said, "I've heard a lot about you from Professor Hu. I didn't expect our first meeting to be at the police station. I must say, your performance just now was impressive."

Chen Mo smiled humbly and said, "Sir, you're joking. We made a mistake, and we hope you can forgive us this time. We promise it won't happen again."

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Who hasn't been young and reckless? I was even more mischievous than you when I was young. But it's best to avoid such incidents in the future. If someone really gets hurt, it won't be as easy to resolve as it was today."

Chen Mo and the other two nodded in agreement, showing that they had learned their lesson. The middle-aged man nodded slightly and then asked, "I heard that after drinking, you insulted other students in the Genius Youth Class. Is that true?"
