Under normal circumstances, the Weibo post of this particular police station would not have garnered that much attention. Some people would just like it and post a comment under it praising the kind and brave citizens. But for some reason, this post started trending in the game category of all places. Particularly in the category dedicated to Arcadia.
Yes, Arcadia had its own category, which was only natural considering how popular it was in the country.
Why? Because a gaming account primarily centered around Arcadia, with a substantial following, reposted it with the caption;
[Hey, don\'t you guys think they\'re talking about the two that looked like YUN and Noctis\' avatars?]
After this was posted, a lot of comments appeared below it within minutes.
[LOL how did you arrive at that conclusion just based on this post? They didn\'t put a single picture of these... good samaritans, there wasn\'t even a name mentioned, so how could you be so sure that it was them?]
- [The same way you guys arrive at the conclusion that those two were YUN and Noctis and that they\'re a bunch of troublemakers who deserved to be disqualified from Arcadia cup. ^^]
- [Hahaha upstairs, that\'s an amazing sense of humor!]
- [But it\'s true that connecting the two was a bit of a stretch. I\'m talking about the police post and the post of the original poster btw.]
[This is so out of the blue. (-_-)]
[Are you just riding the trend so you connected these two different situations?]
[Hey, wasn\'t that one photo showing YUN look-alike about to punch someone taken in a hotspot restaurant? According to the post of the police, the trouble happened in a hotspot restaurant as well. Do you really think it\'s just a coincidence?]
- [The original post was deleted now, so all the replies under it had also been deleted. But I also remembered that comment. The one who posted that sneak shot really did say that it was taken in a hotpot restaurant.]
- [So? There\'s so many hotpot restaurants in the country and you all think they\'re talking about the same one?]
- [Why not just ask the one who posted that sneak shot if the hotpot restaurant they went to was in Yangqing District? If it was, then it couldn\'t be just a simple coincident. Don\'t you think?]
[Hello, I\'m the one who posted the picture of YUN (allegedly) about to punch someone. I was tagged by a friend of mine to this thread. I won\'t say anything unnecessary since it might lead again to misunderstandings, just like what happened earlier. I apologize for that, by the way. I didn\'t mean things to escalate to such a point by posting that. It\'s my fault for not thinking deeply and just doing whatever. This will be my last post regarding the matter. So, to those who were asking, yes, the photo was taken in a hotpot restaurant at Yangqing District.]
- [Wait, wait, wait! Doesn\'t this seem like the original poster was actually onto something and they\'re not just trolling us by sharing this police post?]
- [Upstairs, I think so too. I mean, YUN and Noctis look-alikes might really just be good samaritans fighting against gangsters.]
- [If that\'s true, the fact that the police posted about them meant that they must have been really a great help apprehending those gangsters.] n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
- [Which also means they\'re not war freaks who just go around beating people.]
[But why are we even talking about this? It\'s not like it\'s been proven that those two were really YUN and Noctis.]
- [Come on, does looking the same not enough for you?]
- [They don\'t look the same, just similar. How many people out there do you think look similar to each other? Those two might just be innocent bystanders that all of you dragged to the mud.]
Between people believing that the two were indeed YUN and Noctis, and those who thought they looked only similar, to those who were convinced they were innocent and those who still believed they were at fault, a long debate continued.
But that long debate finally, somehow, came to a close with a single reply under the original thread posted by that
[Hello, I\'m a waitress working part-time at Yangqing Broth House. This is the hotpot restaurant where the incident happened. I came across this thread, as well as the earlier one that was already deleted. I\'ve been wanting to make things clear since earlier, but that first thread already got deleted before I could. But with this one, I can finally do that.
[I don\'t know who this YUN or Noctis was. I only know that these two were among the four who saved me from those gangsters. Please don\'t say anything bad about them or assume the worst. They\'re really good people. If you don\'t believe me, I will attach my employee ID here. I hope this would clear things up. Thank you.]

Bai Ze finally let out a sigh of relief after seeing that things had finally calmed down. It\'s the best decision to leave everything in the hands of the PR department of Moonlight Media. Just look at how fast they managed to turn things around.
The part about contacting the police station and asking them to post something was his idea, though. But Moonlight Media\'s PR team did the rest. That last one with the waitress was a nice touch.
Passing this hurdle safely, Bai Ze slumped back in his seat, feeling the strength of his body leaving him.
