My Refrigerator Turned Into A Dungeon

Chapter 153.1

On The 3rd Day Of The New year, Kenji Visit

Three days into the new year. On this day, the Japanese government suddenly announced the selection of a new prime minister, stating, [We will form a new cabinet and tackle the national crisis we are currently facing with all our might].

With the new year's arrival, one might have felt a sense of urgency.

However, the newly appointed prime minister was a rather timid-looking little old man. He seemed more like a lifelong section chief at some office rather than a politician in appearance.

So, many citizens watching this probably felt, [Ah… this person must have drawn the joker card in a game of Old Maid]. Well, he doesn't seem likely to engage in fraud, but his appointment did leave the citizens feeling uneasy, wondering, [Is this person really capable?]

As a result, even the television news had quite ambiguous comments, but personally, I felt, [Well, I guess it's better than having someone weird as prime minister].

After all, these are difficult times.

Despite the new year, Japan is in the midst of a mood of restraint due to the Dungeon Stampede and China's aggression. It's definitely not the atmosphere for [wearing formal attire and making the first shrine visit of the year].

However, during the greeting press conference, the new prime minister touched upon the topic of recovery medicine when questioned, stating, [We're considering providing this recovery medicine to friendly nations, including Japan, in the future], which somehow led to a sudden development in the situation.

Shortly after that press conference, the United States began to criticize South Korea by name.

Needless to say, relations between Japan and South Korea are frosty.

South Korea, in tandem with China's aggression, was even planning to launch attacks on Japan. However, the United States is allied with both Japan and South Korea.

So why did the United States suddenly start criticizing South Korea by name? It's because they weighed Japan and South Korea against each other and decided it was time to [pay lip service to Japan].

It was partly a veiled restraint against China and partly because South Korea had major issues.

The reason is that South Korea, a country in alliance with the United States, casually revealed the black boxes of state-of-the-art fighter jets bought from the U.S.

Needless to say, black boxes are circuits filled with confidential information, and it's a promise never to open them without permission. To do so is nothing short of a betrayal of trust.

Furthermore, South Korea shamelessly demanded compensation from the United States, claiming, [It's defective, we demand compensation], without remorse.

South Korea is strongly suspected of analyzing military weapons obtained from the United States and selling that information at a high price to China, which is America's hypothetical enemy.

Well, it's questionable why the United States sold fighter jets to such an untrustworthy country in the first place, but they probably wanted the money. Anyway, with the added incident of attempting to attack Japan, the United States suddenly became furious, saying, [What the hell are you doing!]

However, this allowed the United States to portray itself to Japan as a reliable ally, like D0raemon saying, [N0bita-kun, leave it to me!] with the attitude of a superhero. And they have the intention of cleverly obtaining the recovery medicine, saying, [You can rely on America after all!].

….

Well, leaving aside such social circumstances, a new whirlwind has swept through our house.

It's about crabs. Yes, it's a crab whirlwind.

When it comes to crabs at home, they are considered a luxury food only allowed on the dining tables of affluent families.

It's different from imitation crab sticks that only look similar. But! When such a luxury ingredient like crabs is available for free! Absolutely free and unlimited! If you can eat as much as you want, everyone's excitement naturally goes through the roof.

And why is that possible? Because I had quietly brought back the lid of a poly bucket connected to the spatially connected dungeon. Therefore, from this Crab Dungeon, infinite giant crabs emerge.

But there was a significant discovery besides crabs.

That's concerning spatially connected dungeons, [Dungeon movement is possible].

That's quite a significant discovery. As for our refrigerator dungeon, we used to be very careful when changing its direction in the past. However, with this information, it became much easier for me to move out of the apartment I'm currently living in.

I'm not considering moving right away because it's unclear to what extent I can move and whether there are any restrictions on the movement's distance.

And one more important thing.

It's that [you can bring another spatially connected dungeon into a spatially connected dungeon]. In other words, it's a dungeon within a dungeon.

Since they both exert some influence on space, I was very worried that combining them might cause interference and some adverse effects. However, when I actually put the lid of the poly bucket from the Crab Dungeon into the refrigerator dungeon, it smoothly went in without any issues.

It was anticlimactic, but it's still appreciated.

Normally, items in combat areas inside dungeons decompose over time, but things under the influence of spatially connected dungeons seem to be exceptions. So the lid of the poly bucket placed in the depths of the first basement floor remained intact and was not even glanced at by the slimes.

For now, to obtain many giant crabs, the lid of the poly bucket from the Crab Dungeon is left in the depths of the first basement floor. Even if you try to hunt crabs inside the Crab Dungeon, they disappear into smoke when defeated.

However, once you leave the dungeon, you are no longer subject to those constraints, so if you kill the giant crabs inside the Crab Dungeon, they remain intact without turning into smoke when brought into the refrigerator dungeon. Yes, this is much appreciated.josei

Therefore, it's [Crabs in winter, indulgence abound, shurashushushu♪].
