Chapter 415: Lin Yu’s Death and Wang Haoran’s Frustration

In the evening, at Arkham Asylum.

After dinner.

The patients, who had been allowed some free time, were driven back to their rooms.

Lin Yu, who had been acting crazy on top of a table, was once again escorted back by a guard.

“Get in there! Lunatic!”

The guard escorting him was the same one Lin Yu had slapped with the “Slap of No Thought” the previous day.

Cursing, the guard shoved Lin Yu into his room.

He was about to turn and lock the door.

But—

With a sudden “hiss,” the guard took a step, and in the next second.

The previously arrogant and crazy-looking Lin Yu’s expression turned serious.

He rushed forward with a syringe and stabbed it into the guard’s body—

The syringe contained a sedative often used on mental patients.

Injected.

“…Phew, it works.”

Seeing the guard slowly collapse, the tense Lin Yu sighed in relief.

He quickly closed the door.

Then dragged the guard to the bed.

“I need to hurry, or I’ll be discovered!”

Glancing at the surveillance camera he had blocked, Lin Yu sped up.

He stripped the guard of his clothes and put them on himself.

Before leaving, he covered the unconscious guard with a blanket, making it look like he was sleeping.

After doing all this.

He sneaked out of the room.

And headed towards the kitchen.

Where someone was already waiting for him—

“Xiao Linzi, come in quickly!” (tln : xiao linzi mean Little Lin , zie is just for honorifics or courtesy)

In the back kitchen, a stout woman pointed to a large barrel and urged Lin Yu.

Naturally, this woman was a kitchen staff member at the asylum and a friend of the nurse.

After hearing Lin Yu’s tragic story, she decided to help him gain his freedom.

“Xiao Linzi, hurry up!”

“This…” Lin Yu hesitated.

After all, the barrel was meant for kitchen waste.

When planning, he thought he could handle it, but now, facing this “hiding place”…

The moldy, rotten, and fishy smells made him gag as soon as he got close!

How could he hide in there!

But—

“Hurry up! The garbage truck will leave soon!”

“……”

Damn it, there’s no turning back now.

For freedom, I’ll do it!

Gritting his teeth, Lin Yu pinched his nose and climbed into the garbage barrel.

Then lay down, curling up.

Above him, the woman “concernedly” reminded:

“There will be a check at the gate, so I need to cover you with garbage for disguise.”

“It might stink, Xiao Linzi, bear with it!”

Then, the woman poured buckets of garbage over Lin Yu.

Rotten vegetable leaves, chicken bones, leftover food, and even thick slop.

Whether by coincidence or not.

The head area was covered with fish scales and raw fish guts.

The overwhelming stench made him dry heave several times—

“Endure, I must endure!”

“For freedom, I must endure!”

Forcing himself to endure, Lin Yu soon felt the barrel being lifted onto a cart.

Then transported outside the asylum.

“Almost there! I’m about to leave the asylum!”

Feeling the barrel being lifted again.

Slightly accustomed to the stench, Lin Yu felt a surge of excitement.

Soon, once the truck started and left the asylum.

He could get out!

However.

Hiding in the barrel, waiting for the engine to start, Lin Yu didn’t know.

The garbage truck he was in had no driver.

And instead of stopping in front of the kitchen door as usual, it was parked directly at the back gate.

Literally right next to it.

Its purpose was—

“Boom!!!”

In the next second, starting from the fuel tank.

The entire garbage truck exploded violently!

The explosion was so powerful that it blew open the heavy iron gate!

[Ding! Protagonist Lin Yu has died! Protagonist halo cleared! Host luck points +800, ability points +80!]

[Host current luck points: 6800, ability points: 280!]

However, the news of Lin Yu’s death.

Made Wang Haoran more curious about other things—

“Old Mo, the Clown Gang really has guts, using a bomb to blow up the asylum!”

Hearing his master’s words, Old Mo nodded with a wry smile: “Yes, I thought they were joking, but they really dared to cause such a big commotion!”

In front of them, after the asylum’s back gate was blown open.

Two cars quickly rushed in, stopping in the middle of the yard.

Then, a large group of people rushed out.

Leading them was a woman with a baseball bat, her face painted like a clown.

This group purposefully headed towards a specific room.

On the way, they beat up any security personnel who tried to stop them.

Soon, they found their leader.

The man with a pale face and a wide grin, who had been silent.

He was the leader of the Clown Gang. (TLN : OMFG, WHY THE FUCK JOKER WAS THERE)

“My followers, you finally came!”

He spoke for the first time.

Then, surrounded by his followers, he was about to head to the cars—

“Let’s plunge S City into chaos once more!”

The Clown Gang leader shouted this slogan.

But in the next moment.

A figure suddenly appeared before him—

It was Wang Haoran, who had come to clean up the mess.

He blocked their path, “Please stop.”

“…Who are you! How dare you oppose the Clown Gang!”

Seeing someone blocking them, the Clown Gang members raised their weapons and shouted, “Get out of the way!”

Then.

At the leader’s signal, his followers rushed forward.

There were many of them.

But they were all ants—

With a light glare from Wang Haoran, everyone immediately fell.

Leaving only the terrified Clown Gang leader, “What… what kind of power is this?!”

A “well-informed” patient explained:

“That’s… Conqueror’s Haki?!” (TLN 😕 ??????????????????????? HOW ITS SUDDENLY TURN INTO ONE P*ECE, AND WHY THE CLOWN SUDDENLY TURN INTO BUGGY)

“Young man, I didn’t expect you to have the potential to be a ruler!”

“Maybe one day, you can become the Pirate King like me!” (TLN : FUUUUUUUU WHAT IS THIS, AUTHOR IS DRUNK)

Shouting loudly.

“……” Wang Haoran naturally ignored the crazy patient, focusing on the Clown Gang leader.

After all, the bomb was indirectly provided by him, so he had to resolve this matter.

At this moment.

The Clown Gang leader, looking at the young man approaching, after his initial shock.

Suddenly burst into laughter!

“Haha, looks like I’m done for here!”

He glared at Wang Haoran: “But even if I die, you can’t stop the Clown Gang!”

“Because the Clown Gang is a spirit, a will!”

“It will always exist in the darkness, bringing chaos to S City!”

“You can’t stop it!”

The Clown Gang leader declared.

But—

“That’s not necessarily true.”

Playing along, Wang Haoran raised his fingers one by one:

“First, my family is the richest in S City.”

“Second, we have a very powerful elder butler.”

“Third, I am… an orphan.” (TLN : im done. fuck you batman)

Wang Haoran looked into the Clown Gang leader’s eyes: “With that, do you think I can stop you?”

“What?! You’re the legendary…”

Hearing Wang Haoran’s identity, the Clown Gang leader looked at him with the eyes of a nemesis, shocked.

Then, in the next second.

He lost consciousness.
