My Refrigerator Turned Into A Dungeon

Chapter 237:

Dungeon Stampede 2.0 Merits And Demerits

Left alone in the hallway of the separate building, I'm a lonely heart.

At times like this, I crave to hear Ruu's sweet voice.

But there's no point in thinking about that, so I start walking towards the janitor's room, where the heavy machinery fighters are likely hanging out.

As I walk, a strange old man talks to me.

"Hey, you there, are you affiliated with this school?"

He looks in his mid-60s, wearing a high-quality summer sweater, giving off a wealthy vibe.

"No. But I heard that the separate building ahead is off-limits to non-affiliates?"

Dangerous chemicals are stored in the science room, and expensive instruments are in the music room, so it's only natural.

Besides, I've heard that several classrooms on the second floor have been opened to the public, so the students should be living in the separate building.

"That's not what I'm asking! I'm a ward councilor!"

"A nail? Oh, do you need a hammer or tools?"

Hmm, did the girls' high school have a workshop? But if it's the janitor's room…

"You…! I said I'm a ward councilor, you fool! Bring someone who can understand me!"

"Oh, I see. Not a nail, but a councilor. And what about it?

Just because you're a councilor, that doesn't give you the right to be rude to a stranger…"

His cocky attitude, with his chin thrust out as if looking down on others, is really irritating.

"W-What did you say!? Do you know who I am!? Let me know your name! You won't get away with this!!"

"Ah, I've seen the true colors of a corrupt politician. You're just a loud, worthless swindler! Take this!!"

Even in this critical time, where even high school girls are fighting hard, this useless councilor dares to spout such nonsense.

I got so angry that I grabbed his chin, forced his mouth open, and made him drink a super sour acidic liquid until his eyes almost popped out.

"Guhh!? G-guhhh…!!!"

"Come on, drink it up! I'll clean out that filthy black heart of yours! This should wake you up!!"

"G-guhhh…!?"

"Hmm? Did he pass out…?"

But even though he drank less than half of what I intended, he passed out so quickly. What a pathetic guy.

Not only is he corrupt, but he's also a coward…

Having no choice, I dragged him under the blazing sun, wrote "Trash" on his forehead with mud, and left him there.

By the time half a day passes, the mark should be permanent.

…..

Finally, I headed towards the janitor's room, but it was mysteriously empty inside.

"Huh? Where did they go? Oh, wait a minute…"

I asked a passing female student where the heavy machinery guys were, and she said they were on the north side of the main building.

Hmm, what are they doing there…?

But when I went to the north side of the main building, I saw the guys weeding with female students and evacuees.

"Oh, it's the golden bug guy! How've you been!"

"Hey, Heavy Machinery Leader, nothing much has changed here. How about you?"

"Yeah, we're still kicking! Plus, hehe… even if we get injured, we've got this!"

"Wait, isn't that… dokudami…?"

What they were gathering on the north side of the main building was dokudami.

"That's right, it's dokudami tincture! After all, when fighting monsters, even the nurse's office has run out of ointments, right?

In that case, we have no choice but to make our own medicine. Haha!"

The Heavy Machinery Leader opened his toothless mouth and laughed heartily.

I see, with so many people gathered, disinfectant must have run out in no time.

So they decided to rely on dokudami tincture, a traditional remedy.

"Oh, that's impressive. So how effective is it?"

"Well, for ordinary people, it's just a placebo.

But for those who dive into dungeons and have stats, it's incredibly effective!

We almost rely on it every day."

"Oh… it's highly effective for dungeon-capable people. That's amazing…!"

"You should take some too. We're processing it in the science room. If you ask, they'll give you some right away."

"But doesn’t tincture require alcohol?

The school doesn’t have that in stock, does it?"

"Hehe, that’s where the liquor store girl comes in… She’s been helping us out. She even sneaks us some booze… but that's all I can say!"

The Heavy Machinery Leader glanced meaningfully at a petite girl with twin braids who was picking dokudami nearby.

Noticing our gaze, she came over and greeted us with a polite bow.

"My family runs a liquor store. I’m Sakai. Nice to meet you!"

She’s small but sharp and unafraid. She seems to get along well with the guys, playfully nudging them with her elbow.

Hmm, Sakai from the liquor store. Easy to remember and I like it.

Having someone like her, who can smoothly grease the wheels of human relationships, is really helpful.

Indeed, lubrication is essential. The idiot councilor from earlier could use a dose of Sakai's wisdom.

Such people should be given a platform to shine.

Well, I’m not sure how I feel about smuggling alcohol, but if you weigh the pros and cons, the dokudami tincture far outweighs the negatives.

Those useless politicians should at least deliver some real results, instead of just protecting themselves and making money.
