82: Call the police guard?

Upon hearing this, the surrounding crowd immediately erupted, discussing among themselves.

“What is this? It’s actually a fake?”

“It seems that no matter where you go, there are always such cunning merchants!”

Everyone started to condemn the Vendor, but the Vendor remained indifferent, thinking to himself that since he didn't rely on repeat business, if they were cheated, it was only because they were foolish, and he couldn't be blamed.

Especially the four-armed alien, who had been holding in a lot of emotion. Now, learning that the so-called ancient artifact he had been frantically bidding on was actually a fake, his expression became even uglier.

Even though he hadn't bought it, he still felt like he had been played for a fool.

“Whether it’s real or fake, you and your items need to come back to the department with me first. Oh, and you few, you were the most aggressive in your bidding just now; I heard you from a long distance away. You also need to come back to the department with me for processing.”

Liu Zhi pointed at the several alien visitors who had been bidding most aggressively, including the four-armed alien.

Seeing this, the four-armed alien’s temper completely exploded. Being tricked was one thing, but now he had to go to the department with them? It was truly infuriating.

“It’s clearly his problem, why are you arresting us?”

The four-armed alien roared, enraged.

This sudden roar was like a clap of thunder, startling everyone present, and they all turned their gaze towards him.

“Why are you roaring? We’re not arresting you to convict you; we’re asking for your cooperation to take a statement. After all, you are also considered relevant parties in this incident.”

Liu Zhi showed no fear of the four-armed alien, who was a head taller than him, and stared back.

The other individuals who had been pointed at had no objections. After all, it was just to take a statement, merely a waste of a little time.

But the four-armed alien didn't think that way; he stubbornly believed he was being humiliated by the Blue Star people.

“Bastard, I’m not going! If you want to go, go yourselves!”

With that, he angrily waved his large hand, forcefully pushing Liu Zhi to the ground.

“This is absolutely lawless! Someone, forcibly arrest him! How dare he openly assault an Imperial Official!”

Liu Zhi, who had fallen to the ground, was not one to shy away from trouble. He quickly got up and swiftly called to the law enforcement officers around him, preparing to take down the four-armed alien together.

Just like that, the two sides immediately began to pull and grapple with each other. Although the Blue Star Management Department had more people, they were, after all, just humans, and in terms of strength and physical fitness, they couldn't contend with the tall, four-armed alien.

As time passed minute by minute, the emotions of both sides became increasingly uncontrollable, eventually escalating directly into a mutual brawl. The two sides thus fought openly and without reservation in broad daylight.

The two sides exchanged punches. Although the saying goes, “two fists are no match for four hands,” the alien, unfortunately, didn’t have two fists but four hands, making the fight a tough and evenly matched struggle, with neither side willing to back down.

It was uncommon to see an Imperial Official and an Imperial Citizen fighting in the street.

Everyone gathered around, and some even started betting on which side would win. However, after only a few minutes of fighting, Blue Star law enforcement officers quickly arrived at the scene and took Liu Zhi and the four-armed alien away.

Of course, the Vendor, the culprit of the incident, was also taken away. If it weren't for him, such a big incident wouldn't have occurred.

However, the alien visitors previously pointed out by Liu Zhi were overlooked in the chaos.

Inside the Blue Star Management Department, Xia Quan was furious, his finger almost poking Liu Zhi’s forehead as he shouted loudly.

“Tell me, you, as a dignified Imperial Official, actually brawled with an Imperial Citizen in broad daylight! What kind of decorum is that?!”

“He started it…”

Liu Zhi defended himself in a low voice.

“It doesn’t matter who started it, you can’t act so impulsively outside! Don’t you know to try and calm the other party first and bring them back to the department to handle it? In the department, you could fight him for a day and a night, and it wouldn’t be a problem, because no one would see, understand?”

Xia Quan felt an immense headache. If such an incident on Blue Star wasn’t handled well, it could lead to a loss of visitors, and those were all precious star coins.

This Liu Zhi truly had a pig’s brain; couldn’t he have just handled it back at the department? Fighting in the department and fighting outside were two completely different matters.

“Reporting, 部長! It’s not good! That alien visitor said he has already reported it to the Guard Division, and he has also submitted a lawsuit against comrade Liu Zhi to the Solar System Imperial Court.”

A Blue Star Management Department official rushed into Xia Quan’s office, looking flustered and anxious.

“What?! Look at the mess you’ve made! Go explain it to Captain Li Yang yourself!”

Upon hearing this, Xia Quan couldn’t say much more. After all, the other party had already bypassed the Blue Star Management Department and reported directly to the Imperial Guard Division, and even a court lawsuit had arrived. What else could he do?

He could only consult Captain Li Yang. After all, they could handle internal Blue Star matters themselves, but issues involving external parties had to be personally handled by Li Yang… On the star destroyer, Li Yang had initially received a message from Xia Quan, saying that personnel from the Blue Star Management Department and an Imperial Citizen had a conflict and fought on the street.

Regarding this, Li Yang naturally sided with his own people, telling Xia Quan to handle it according to the Blue Star Management Department's regulations. For the Blue Star Management Department personnel, a verbal reprimand and education would suffice, and as for the alien visitor who initiated the fight, he should be treated as having assaulted an Imperial Official.

However, in less than a moment, the smart-brain sent another message.

“Beep… The Solar System 駐守 Guard Division is requesting a call with you…”
