'Snake, Beast, and Ying'

Today is Tuesday.

Lunch consisted of a dry, hard steamed bun left over from breakfast and a bowl of hot green vegetable soup.

The steamed bun was incredibly dry and hard, like chewing on a weathered stone. The vegetable soup, perhaps unsalted, tasted bland and even slightly earthy, making it difficult to swallow.

However, if you tear the steamed bun into pieces and sprinkle it into the soup, allowing the two to blend together into a bowl of thick soup, it can create a wonderful reaction between the two ingredients, resulting in something unexpectedly delicious.

After lunch, with the tableware set out, Uraraka Shige and Gu Yu left the restaurant, followed by a short lunch break.

However, Uraraka Shige and Gu Yu did not go straight back to their respective cells to rest, but lingered for a while at the entrance of the dining hall.

"The 'beast' hasn't been doing too well lately, and he hasn't had much time to target us two nobodys."

Uraraka Shige looked at the hawk, who was still eating slowly in the restaurant but no longer occupying a table all by himself, and seemed somewhat happy.

In his view, the troubles that the 'beast' is currently facing, as well as the many setbacks that the eagle is encountering, can all be attributed to him. He is completely unaware that this is actually just a chain reaction caused by that clever kid using him as a pawn to finish everything off.

Yes, this is just the end.

Perhaps in Uraraka Shige's eyes this was only the beginning, but in reality, for the clever idiot who had planned everything, this was merely the end of his scheme.

It could also be said that the clever fellow had no doubt about the outcome of his plan, believing that once the plan officially began, everything would proceed as he had planned, until the outcome he foresaw was achieved, which shows his confidence.

Now that clever fellow has already begun a new round of planning and scheming to hone his skills and prevent his strategic abilities from weakening or declining.

As for Uraraka Shige, there is still much to be done if he wants to completely eliminate the 'Beast Group' in Area A.

"Boss Ying must be very tired lately... and he must feel extremely humiliated..."

Gu Yu's tone seemed somewhat downcast, prompting Uraraka Shige to turn her head and scrutinize him closely a few times.

"Don't you already know why that guy helped you in the first place? Why are you still so concerned about him?"

Uraraka Shige somewhat puzzled. Gu Yu's appearance clearly showed that he still remembered the so-called 'kindness' that Ying had shown him.

However, Gu Yu's idea seemed quite simple.

"Although you told me that he was just trying to win people over in this way, and that the trouble I encountered back then was inseparable from his influence... but... it's one thing for him to harm me, and it's another thing for him to help me afterwards."

Gu Yu paused, seemingly worried that Uraraka Shige might not understand.

"He schemed against me and framed me; I'll get my revenge sooner or later. But he helped me and guided me, and I must find a way to repay him."

"But he framed you before he stood up for you! If he hadn't framed you, you wouldn't have needed his help, right? If you insist on arguing, then his help already canceled out his framing back then!"

Uraraka Shige tried to persuade Gu Yu to change this idea and way of thinking.

"That's different."

Gu Yu, however, persisted in his own way of thinking. No matter how Uraraka Shige to persuade him, Gu Yu that things were different, but when asked to pinpoint exactly what was different, he couldn't give a clear answer.

So in the end, even after being driven back to their cells by the guards, Uraraka Shige was unable to persuade Gu Yu to change his mind.

The afternoon passed quickly, and before we knew it, it was the next day.

During the short break after the 'morning study', after Uraraka Shige and Gu Yu dealt with a group of guys from the 'Snake Group' who were trying to cause them trouble, they suddenly overheard some news about the current situation of the 'Beasts' from a conversation among several members of the 'Beast Group'.

"What? You also want to break free from the 'beast'?"

That was when one of the 'Beast' members asked another member a question.

The member he then questioned offered a rebuttal.

"This 'group' is beyond saving. It's said that not only in this area, but even the 'beasts' in other areas seem to be targeted by other 'groups.' You should leave as soon as possible. It doesn't matter which group you join afterward... You don't want to stay in the 'beasts' forever, until the 'beasts' completely dissipate and collapse, do you?"

The other member standing next to them also feigned extreme surprise upon hearing this, questioning the member who had raised the issue... or perhaps just joking?

"Hey! You don't really want to be the last person to leave the 'Beast Group,' do you?! Then no 'gang' will accept you!"

Clearly, this third member did not consider the possibility that the last person to witness the 'Beast Group's' disappearance in this Discipline Prison might be appreciated by the 'higher-ups' of other 'groups' for their 'loyalty'.

Uraraka Shige had no idea what they discussed next, because he didn't listen further. Instead, he focused on the information revealed in those few sentences and began to make connections and think about it.

He then had another conversation with Gu Yu.

The specific details of the associations and reflections will not be discussed for the time being, but only information about the 'beasts' in other areas. The details of the conversation also need not be described in detail, but only about the situation of the 'beasts' in Area A.

In short, a few more days passed.

In the past few days, the 'Beast Group' in Area A has gradually fallen apart, with a large number of members leaving the 'group' every day. Moreover, the 'management' members of the 'Beast Group' had already mostly left a few days ago.

In just a few days, the 'Beast Group' in Area A suddenly became an empty shell, with only about twenty members remaining... roughly one-fifth of the original members after their defeat in the 'competition' against the 'Snake'.

Moreover, the situation of the 'beasts' in other areas did not seem to be good either. At least a few days after the number of 'beasts' stabilized at around twenty, the person in charge of the 'Beast Group' in Area A, the guy called Eagle, suddenly announced that the 'Beast Group' in Area A was completely disbanded.

Then, this guy called Eagle turned around and established a new 'small group' on the last remains of the 'Beast Group' in Area A. The group had fifteen members and was named after himself.

Its name is 'Eagle'.
