The 'line' technique was used to free myself from this 'special single room'.

As for how to escape, it was simply a matter of using a 'line' to cut a large hole in a transparent wall so that he could get out.

While evading the guards' control, he continued to manipulate the 'lines', Rikizo 'exits' from the walls of the 'cells' of Gu Yu, Li Zang, and others whom he considered decent based on observations over the past few months.

Obviously, when these disciplined individuals were awakened by Uraraka Shige's sudden loud cry of "I need your help" and became somewhat irritable, they suddenly discovered that there was a very strange sensation coming from the person who woke them up, which would inevitably make them even more agitated.

But just as they were about to explode with frustration, they discovered that this unusual feeling wasn't limited to the person who woke them up; it was also present near a certain wall in their 'single' room.

At this point, they will calm down under the influence of this sense of crisis and begin to observe their surroundings.

"This is?"

Next, it was discovered that the hole in the wall of the 'single room' had been deliberately cut out with 'line' by Uraraka Shige, which was only natural.

Except for that strange fellow who gave Uraraka Shige time to think, but is now pretending to be asleep...

Of course, many of those being disciplined will inevitably discover that Uraraka Shige has escaped from his 'single room' and thus understand Uraraka Shige intentions.

"I see..."

However, some of them will leave the 'single room' as Uraraka Shige wished, while others will continue to stay in the 'single room'... such as the guy who always tries to stir up trouble to get himself back into the 'single room' after leaving...

For them, the 'special single room' has almost become their 'home'.

Regardless of the circumstances, Uraraka Shige's actions did indeed successfully release some of those under his supervision.

Although those who left their 'single rooms' were probably 'newbies' who hadn't spent much time in the 'special single rooms', they still had a heart that yearned for 'freedom'.

However, in any case, judging from the fact that the guards in the dispersed 'single cell area' have paid attention to this point, Uraraka Shige has successfully gained some 'helpers'... probably less than ten people.

"Hey! Whatever we're going to do, I think we need to release more people!"

After crawling out of a hole in the wall of the 'single' cell, a man who seemed rather clumsy and disheveled as he was being captured by four guards turned his attention to Uraraka Shige, who had woken them up.

What he said was exactly Uraraka Shige planned to do next.

Uraraka Shige glanced uneasily at the strange man. To be honest, he originally thought that after he made the move to escape, the strange man would immediately take action, and might even attack him.

Based on the circumstances surrounding that guy's appearance, it's clear that he possesses some kind of 'Quirk' related to 'spirit', 'consciousness', or 'soul'.

It can simultaneously and coarsely control or influence a large number of targets, as well as focus on meticulously manipulating a single target...

This is similar to the Puppet Technique in Naruto...

Whether it's 'spirit,' 'consciousness,' or 'flexibility,' Uraraka Shige doesn't believe that the small, transparent wall of a 'single room' can block it... just as that wall can't block sound...

But he clearly overlooked something... because the transparent wall wasn't soundproof, so it was impossible that the weird guy hadn't heard Uraraka Shige's earlier words, 'I need help.'

In this situation, the strange fellow made no move even after Uraraka Shige began to plan his escape and had even started to take action, which means that there must be something that Uraraka Shige was unaware of.

... Uraraka Shige didn't know, or rather, couldn't be sure, that the strange fellow was pretending to be asleep...

Even so, with a little analysis, some basic information can be gleaned, leading to some basic conjectures...

For example, did that guy need to expend a lot of energy to control that body, so he simply didn't have the energy to continue doing anything at night?

For example, was that guy so confident of victory that he treated Uraraka Shige's 'struggles' as nothing more than a joke, and therefore too lazy to waste time now, planning to wait until the last moment to make Uraraka Shige experience the extreme highs and lows of despair and hope?

For example, that guy might actually have ulterior motives, and Uraraka Shige's actions at this moment just happen to align with those other objectives. Therefore, that guy simply lets Uraraka Shige run wild for now, waiting for Uraraka Shige to achieve his goals before...

Besides these, there are many other possibilities, which Uraraka Shige's mind simply cannot comprehend. Therefore, after thinking for a while, Uraraka Shige realized that it was actually unnecessary for him to think about this matter.

After all, he had already decided to escape from this Discipline Prison again, and the escape operation had already begun. So no matter why this strange guy didn't stop him, it wouldn't change the fact that Uraraka Shige wanted to continue with this 'plan'.

Without this guy's interference, the only things Uraraka Shige needs to be careful about for now are things like the guards, who were originally obstacles to his escape.

Therefore, in order to minimize these obstacles, Uraraka Shige once again used the 'line' to release some of the disciplined individuals from the 'single rooms'.

Fortunately, because Uraraka Shige used the technique of 'thread' to help those in 'single rooms' escape from 'single rooms', she did not need to personally touch the walls of those 'single rooms'.

Therefore, in the eyes of the guards, Uraraka Shige was using a 'Quirk' that would make others feel a strong sense of crisis to release the people in the 'single cells'. So rather than trying to regain control of the source of chaos in the 'single cell area'— Uraraka Shige —they preferred to be more cautious in protecting the 'safety' of the 'single cells' they were stationed in.

This means that the difficulties Uraraka Shige faces in escaping this 'special single-room area' are much less than what was expected.

However, this does not mean that the escape operation was truly smooth sailing...

"Ha... since that's the case, why not make things lively and go all out!"

The change began the moment one of the detainees crawled out through a hole in the wall of his solitary confinement cell...
