'Escape' ④

Uraraka Shige as a bystander and quickly arrived near the entrance passage. She was then driven away by the guards stationed at the passage, just like they would with other detainees.

Some of the other detainees simply obeyed the guards' orders and slowly moved away into the distance.

Some of the students being disciplined looked quite indignant, shouting things like, "We're just here to watch the fun! Why are you kicking us out!" But despite saying that, they still obediently moved slowly away from the passageway.

"That won't do..."

The Uraraka Shige gently squinted, and she closed her eyelids.

He planned to escape and return home, at least to see that his family in this life was indeed living well, and also to send his regards to Gu Yu's family.

If he were to be driven aside by these guards right here, he would undoubtedly lose such a golden opportunity!

This also means that Gu Yu's sacrifices will be in vain, and may even become the prelude to a rift between Gu Yu and him, ultimately leading to Gu Yu leaving his 'group' or even turning them into enemies.

Such a "trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead" outcome is undoubtedly unacceptable to Uraraka Shige.

"If that's the case... then we might as well be more decisive!"

Uraraka Shige made a decision: he planned to take this opportunity to incite a riot, inducing the group of expelled prisoners to attack the guards, so that he could take advantage of the chaos.

But if this happens...

"The plan needs to be changed slightly... but I can't think of a better way for now, so let's just do it this way!"

Unlike some melodramatic plots where Uraraka Shige did not do that.

After all, Uraraka Shige rarely interacts with others. Although she can communicate normally without any problems, she is not good at speaking.

Although the inmates in this Discipline Prison are all minors, none of them are fools. So, if they were to be instigated with words, their malicious intentions would be discovered, and naturally, no one would fall for it.

In doing so, not only would Uraraka Shige's true purpose not be achieved, but he would also be exposed, and might even face severe punishment for instigating a riot.

This is not what he wanted.

Therefore, at this point, Uraraka Shige simply adopted another extreme approach.

He suddenly lunged at one of the students being disciplined, using his unexpected advantage to instantly grab him tightly. Thanks to his physical abilities, which far surpassed those of most of his peers, the student was unable to break free for a moment.

While setting an example by taking the lead, he also shouted and yelled.

"These guys are all drawn to what's happening over there, this is a perfect opportunity! Quickly take control of them while they're short-handed! Then we can slip out!"

It must be said that Uraraka Shige's words at this moment, spoken without careful consideration, were completely unconvincing. Only the word "get out" at the end of his words made some of the disciplined people restless, but in reality, it did not mobilize many people.

It could even be said that none of the people being disciplined stood up; they all hid at a distance, watching Uraraka Shige's foolish behavior with a spectator's attitude.

Uraraka Shige only managed to grab one of the guards, but the other guards quickly reacted and swiftly knocked Uraraka Shige to the ground.

At this point, it's clear that Uraraka Shige's escape plan is doomed to fail.

However, it can be said that there is always a way out. Among this group of people being disciplined, there happened to be a guy who was relatively familiar with Uraraka Shige. He was a clever guy who had developed some interest in Uraraka Shige because of Gu Yu.

For reasons unknown, this clever fellow, upon seeing Uraraka Shige's current predicament, suddenly winked at one of the students being disciplined beside him, and then spoke up for Uraraka Shige.

"I think he has a point... Now is indeed the best time to escape, isn't it?"

However, there was a hint of doubt in his tone.

The student who had been given a meaningful look seemed to obey immediately, understanding his meaning instantly. The moment he finished speaking, he rushed towards the guards, shouting loudly as he did so.

"Don't try to stop me! I want to go home!"

There's a saying...

Sometimes people don't need precise analysis; they just need a leader.

Or, as the saying goes, "When things reach a stalemate, often all it takes is for someone to step forward and take the lead, and the stalemate will be broken instantly."

In short, that's roughly the idea...

Simple, straightforward words, a slightly fanatical tone, and then, without hesitation, as the person being disciplined roared and charged forward, despite his words being as unconvincing as Uraraka Shige's, and despite his tone lacking any Incite power...

However, those being disciplined who were standing at a distance that was neither too close nor too far reacted instantly, as if a flood had been released, with their bodies reacting almost without any thought.

As the guards at the passageway paled in shock, a tidal wave, barely worthy of being called a small wave in the ocean, surged toward them, slamming them onto the sand and trapping them there. They were entangled and unable to break free, until one after another, the detainees trampled over them.

Although there were fewer than twenty people, their swarming attack temporarily deprived the guards of their ability to stop and warn the inmates, allowing them to successfully reach the isolation door of the connecting passage.

Meanwhile, the clever fellow calmly approached Uraraka Shige, who had been knocked to the ground by the guards, and helped him up.

"I don't know why you had this idea (to escape), but I think it wasn't an impulsive act. You must have had a way to break through the isolation gate and the barbed wire fence that forms the entrance."

He looked at Uraraka Shige, and seemingly out of kindness, patted the dust off her Uraraka Shige before continuing:

"But whether that's true or not, I don't care about your specific methods or your motives. I only have one request for you this time."

He stared intently into Uraraka Shige's eyes, his gaze so intense that it suddenly made Uraraka Shige feel... inexplicably guilty?

"After I leave, I'll go to Tottori Prefecture to find my sister and see how she's doing, so I know if she's still living safely according to my plan."
