ac The CS is fragmented into a number of magnetic islands. A relatively large magnetic island is interacting with the flare loop-top and several islands in the main CS are moving downwards. The gray curves mark the magnetic field lines. d The spatial scale of the flare loops becomes comparable with observations at later time.
