On his first day at the school last September, Zheng Qing and his buddies got into a fight with Arthur Ness of Alpha College on the pedestrian street in Beta Town.

Then they received a 'red notice' from the school and had to accept a six-month penalty for voluntary labor.

Zheng Qing has caused more than half of the disasters in the past year, and in the final analysis, he is to blame for that punishment. So he's very sensitive to it. To be honest, he felt that his conflict with Arthur Ness had at best blocked a little traffic, and he hadn't even torn a few pieces of clothing, which was really nothing compared to the scenes in Retche or Augustus.

So after hearing Xin Fatzi's analysis, the young public-funded student immediately remembered what happened to him last year, and suddenly felt unfair: "Why should their fights be handled by Beta Town, and our fights will be handled by the school?"

"Because they are the heads of the Blood Friends and the Divine Will," the fat man pouted, his voice as if coming out of his nose, "there is nothing new under the sun." Powerful people always get more preferential treatment than ordinary people...... Maybe that's life. ”

In the last sentence, he said quite embarrassed.

But this does not comfort the wounded hearts of the young government-funded students.

However, Dr. Xiao's analysis from reason and reality is more convincing.

"This kind of thing is inherently ambiguous and left at the discretion of the university. Xiao Xiao put forward his views from a very practical point of view:

"When we were punished last year, we were freshmen, and we had an accident before we even entered the school, and if the school didn't deal with it, it might give other newcomers some kind of wrong hint...... From a management point of view, it is 'no harm' for the school to deal with us strictly and quickly. ”

He bites the last four words very clearly.

"I didn't expect you to have a study in management. Zheng Qing complained about another point in the doctor's words.

Xiao Xiao ignored him and continued: "...... And what ruined half of the street yesterday was nominally two students, but in fact two student organizations, and they were two of the most powerful and influential student organizations at First University - these two student organizations had a large number of high-level wizarding alumni in the wizarding world and a large number of outstanding student members within the school. It is 'not good' for the school to deal with them severely. And the slightest carelessness could provoke even greater chaos. ”

"And right now, there's nothing more important to a school than stability. ”

Zheng Qing has a deep understanding of this.

From the return of silence, to his hearings with Seprano, from the Fish-Man riots to the Centaur protests, and even the school's low-key reaction after last year's winter hunt ended and he blew up the Silent Forest this time, this is all very clear.

Schools are very, very much in need of stability right now.

“...... In my opinion, just because the school has handed over the aftermath to the town of Beta doesn't mean that the school won't do anything about it. This only means that the school will not hold young wizards accountable for felonies such as 'illegal use of spells', 'attempted murder', 'bodily injury', 'fire and damage to other people's property'. ”

Xiao Xiao turned his head, took one last look at the figure that had gradually blurred in the distance, and said softly: "It is not surprising that Lei Zhe, Augustus, and all the wizards who participated in the fight will still receive punishments of varying severity...... From warnings to probation. But no one will be fired or handed over to Danhag for this. ”

"First University has always been very wary of the Wizarding Alliance's influence under the pretext of related events," Xin Fat nodded approvingly, stretched out his finger and poked the sky: "They won't allow Danhag to exert influence on young wizards casually......"

"And Lei Zhe and Augustus, as the general leaders," Xiao Xiao raised his voice slightly, indicating that his analysis was not over: "According to the original plan, this year's Lei Zhe and Augustus will 'retire' this summer, but because of this incident that is happening now, their 'retirement' time may be much earlier......"

The doctor's last speculation was very unexpected, but when I thought about it, I realized that it was very likely.

When Zheng Qingzheng lowered his head and seriously thought about this possibility, a crisp voice suddenly sounded in his ears:

"Yo, you're coming to see Nicholas too?"

The young public-funded student was greatly dissatisfied, raised his head, and happened to see Li Meng running over. Not far behind her was the gate of the school hospital. At the door, there were several staff members in white robes.

"You're a little slow, Downton just left with his little brothers, and a little earlier, you'll still be able to meet the Divine Will condolence group, which is really the largest society in the Nine, they have sent Nicholas a whole set of statues glued out of the teeth of fallen vampires, if you put some magic in it, they will still kneel on the ground and kowtow hard!"

Li Meng's small mouth was like a machine gun, and she kept talking, and the topic changed quickly, one second she was still saying that Downton's casual use of class fees had a bad impact, and the next moment she began to analyze with great interest whether Alpha Academy would also send someone to condolence Nicholas, and her cousin had been with Liu Feifei in the school hospital all morning.

Zheng Qing was dizzy when he heard this.

Immediately afterward, his hand was light, and he looked fixedly, but it was the little witch who took the box in his hand at some point.

"Did you bring a gift for Nicholas, too?

The little witch walked to Nicholas's hospital room with a few boys, and shared with them her experience of giving gifts: "If you want me to say that giving flowers is the most old-fashioned...... They're all boys, can you send something hard, like a stack of explosive charms? I think Nicholas should really want to blow up Fort Alpha right now. ”

Before Zheng Qing could figure out how to answer the little witch's 'enthusiasm' suggestion, Li Meng had already put his eyes into the gap in the gift box and observed the boys' gifts.

Inside the box were snacks that Zheng Qing brought to Nicholas, including a box of dumplings filled with frog meat, and fried frog legs that were charred and crispy. Originally, he wanted to bring an extra bottle of frog juice, but was severely stopped by his two companions.

"It's cold, it's not suitable for sick people. "In terms of eating, Xin Fat Man has always been very reliable. So Zheng Qing followed the advice and gave up the bottle of frog juice.

"Frog dumplings, fried frog legs, and frog dolls with smashing flat faces...... Are you kindergarten kids?"

The little witch observed the gift Zheng Qing was carrying through the gap, and the disgusted expression on her face became heavier and heavier, until finally, she seemed to think of something, and suddenly opened her eyes: "Or, have you discussed it with my cousin?"

"Huh?" Zheng Qing looked inexplicable.

"My cousin's gift to Nicholas is similar to yours. Li Meng's answer made the boy break out in a cold sweat.

And his two companions looked at him with strange eyes, making him stand on pins and needles.
