Synopsis

The chapter reveals that the shelter's residents are lethargic due to consuming a dog blood drink that causes hallucinations similar to alcohol. The main characters confront some initial resistance and then meet the shelter leader, Madam Jung, to inquire about a metahuman named Kim Gyeowul. They offer cores as payment for information, successfully pressuring her into admitting Kim Gyeowul's presence and agreeing to let them speak with her, though they assure her they don't intend to take her against her will.
