c187 Rendell’s past
“So…?” Linde was a little confused.
“So I hope to gain your friendship!” Merkleton said.
Lind scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, “So you want to use another ordinary person’s information in exchange for my friendship?”
“No, I didn’t mean that.” Merkleton explained, “I just hope that I can… be in touch with that world, even just a little bit, just a little bit.”
“…”
Just when Lind was thinking about how to answer him, he just skipped the topic and said, “As far as I know, Mr. Rendell is thirty-five years old and is the son of a prostitute here in Surrey at that time.”
The cliché plot of the mother being a prostitute and the father unknown!
“Many people believe that Mr. Rendell’s mother was a prostitute and his father was an unknown customer, and his life has been very hard since he was a child. This argument is now the most widely circulated among the middle and lower classes in Surrey County. But this statement is only true. half.
Mr. Rendell’s father was not a simple guest. He was a clockmaker in the town at that time. He was handsome and modest. He had married two wives before, one died of an accident and the other died of illness.
So there were rumors at the time that his father, Jack Rendell, was an unfortunate man. ”
“Then old Lendl went to seek services because his physiological needs were not met because he was a bachelor?” Linde asked.
Merkleton nodded, “More than that, many prostitutes at that time were afraid to provide services to him. His reputation as an unfortunate person has changed from the initial “marriage will bring misfortune” through continuous word of mouth. It became “Women will be unhappy as long as they interact with him”,
Such a reputation even made it difficult for his watch business to continue. So by such a coincidence, a new woman in the industry took Mr. Rendell’s order.
The woman has a seriously ill father, is very short of money, and because she has a scar on her face that looks very scary, she is not afraid of the unfortunate aura of old Rendell.
Mr. Rendell doesn’t have much money because business is not easy, but that woman is cheap! He was still young, and although he had a scar on his face, he didn’t mind.
In this way, the two people became long-term partners.
I don’t know if this is an appropriate description, or if it’s respectful. Sorry, my ability to choose words and form sentences is really lacking. ” Merkleton explained that he hoped to add some seriousness and desolation to this story, which is a sign of respect for Lendl.
“It’s okay, just say it.”
“After two years of cooperation like this, the woman’s seriously ill father still passed away.” Merkelton shook his head. “The only relative that the woman devoted everything she wanted to save passed away.
After that, the woman planned to quit the industry, and Lundell Sr. also pursued her. In Old Rendell’s heart, this woman was the only woman in these years who was willing to accept him regardless of the rumors outside.
Old Rendel was also a poor man. His parents left this world early. Before they died, they sent old Rendel to work in a watch shop, so old Rendel could deeply understand the woman’s feelings. heart.
Under such coincidences, within a month, a former prostitute whose parents both died and a hard-working watchmaker got married.
After their marriage, they gave birth to a son, who is now the famous Mr. Rendell. Logically speaking, this should be a story about the family’s shortcomings.
However, God did not fulfill his wishes.
When Mr. Rendell was three years old, the elder Rendell became addicted to drugs.
Old Rendell had always had the habit of smoking, and then somehow he got infected with the leaves, and then it got worse until Mrs. Rendell, that woman, Rendell’s mother!
By the time Mrs. Rendell discovered that her husband had become an addict, it was already too late. At that time he could no longer look back.
So one night, late at night. After waking up and feeling extremely remorseful, Old Rendell committed suicide with a gun.
This scene was also witnessed by the young Mr. Rendell. ”
As he spoke, Merkleton sighed, “Mr. Rendell never spoke again. In the past, it was called ‘lost soul’. Of course, if it is explained in today’s terms, it is called ‘autism’.” .
Obviously, the world at that time did not know what autism was. After the death of her husband, the lonely Mrs. Rendell could only rely on selling off her family property to continue living. She can only maintain her hope of life by relying on her belief in saving her son.
She sold her house and shop and started looking for doctors, witch doctors, and warlocks with her children. Sure enough, within two years, she was deceived out of nothing.
At that time, Mrs. Rendell still looked like a woman. It was said that her skin was chapped, her hair was messy and caked, she was dirty, and she was wearing tattered clothes.
At that time, she had no money left and could only rely on begging on the streets to maintain basic food and clothing.
However, in this situation, a woman came to the aid of Mrs. Rendell at that time.
The woman took Mrs. Rendell and Mr. Rendell Jr. into her home, gave them clothes, and gave them food. Hearing this, many people may think that the lives of mother and son may be about to get better.
Unfortunately, that enthusiastic woman was a member of a cult in a small town here at the time.
The pope claimed that he was an omniscient and omnipotent being, the new Jesus, and founded a sect called the New Christianity!
Just like she had used all her wealth to find those deceptive doctors and witch doctors before, Mrs. Rundle did not put her mind on orthodox medicine from the beginning. She believed that the condition of “lost soul” could only be saved by mysterious power.
Later, under the leadership of that woman, Mrs. Rundle joined the new Christianity.
Perhaps in the hearts of the superiors in this world, faith is just a tool, but for Mrs. Rundle, faith is her only life-saving straw.
After joining the church, Mrs. Rundle prayed devoutly every day. Finally, the new Jesus was influenced by her and gave old Mrs. Rundle a way to save her son who had lost his soul! ”
Speaking, Merclayton looked up at the gloomy sky in the sky. This is the case in the UK. Basically, it is either rainy or snowy all year round. It’s annoying.
“As I said before, this so-called new Christianity is a complete cult, and that new Jesus is even more of a scumbag among scumbags.
He told Mrs. Rundle that the only way to save Mr. Rundle’s “lost soul” was to fill it back.
Use another soul to fill it back.
And the new Jesus also said that because of the problem of body compatibility, this soul can only be sacrificed by the closest relatives before he, the new Jesus, can use his supreme power to send the soul to Mr. Rundle’s body.
Only in this way can he be saved. ”
Lind nodded, “He is indeed a scumbag!” At this time, light raindrops were falling from the sky.
Lind’s face remained unchanged and he continued to move forward. Seeing this, Merclayton followed him obediently and continued to tell the story.
Hualala–
“This nonsense is like manna from heaven to this desperate, ignorant, penniless woman who is eager to save her son. She immediately decided to sacrifice her life to save her child.
At the same time, after learning of her agreement, the leader signaled her to stay calm, observe the stars, and wait for a suitable time. On the other hand, he was contacting organ buyers. ”
“Is he engaged in organ trafficking?!” Lind said coldly.
“Yes, set up a small church to find desperate people like old Mrs. Rundle. You know, when a person is desperate, they can only believe in the illusory God and pray for miracles. This is the time for this new Christianity to gain their trust.
After that, this leader, the so-called new Jesus, will use various reasons to let the newly joined believer die. Then sell their organs. ”
“So… Rundle’s mother died too?” Lind asked.
Mercklayton nodded, “Yes, but Mr. Rundle himself is very lucky, he survived. The leader originally planned to kill Mr. Rundle Jr. after Mrs. Rundle died. ”
Speaking of this, Merclayton paused, “Here we have to mention a person – Rodhan Capone!”
“Rodhan? I just heard from Cass that tonight is Rodhan’s party, and that Rodhan is their gangster idol.”
Merlayton nodded, “Yes, Rodhan Capone was the gangster boss in Greater London before. He ruled Greater London for ten years, and now the industry has been handed over to his son, Fester Capone. Rodhan is now in seclusion behind the scenes, and can be regarded as…”
“The Godfather of Gangsters?” In Lind’s mind, an image played by Marlon Brando jumped out.
Merlayton nodded, “Yes, he is now the Godfather of Greater London.”
“Uh-huh, go on.” Lind nodded, and the rain had soaked them all.
“What Rodhan hates most is organ trafficking, and the specific reason is still unknown. However, just after the death of old Mrs. Rundle, when the cult was about to attack Mr. Rundle, Rodhan’s people broke in and massacred the entire church, letting Mr. Rundle go at random. ”
As he spoke, Merclayton took out a cigarette from his pocket, and before he could block the match with his hand to light it, the cigarette was already wet.
Linde waved his fingers gently in front of Merclayton’s eyes, and a blue fluorescence flashed in the gray feathers. Just when he thought he was dazzled, he saw the wet cigarette in his mouth fade away little by little, and finally at the end of the cigarette, a blue flame suddenly emerged and lit the cigarette.
Linde looked at him, “What? ! The feelings are in place, wouldn’t it be uncomfortable if you don’t have one?”
Merlayton’s pupils kept trembling, his fingers were stiffly clamped on the cigarette holder, and he took a deep puff to calm his constantly fluctuating mood.
“It’s incredible.” He said slowly.
“Continue talking about what happened before. “Linde didn’t say much about it.
“I don’t know what happened afterwards. It is said that he saw his mother’s chest being cut open that night, and his autism was cured immediately. Some people also said that he met other people and things later, and his autism was cured.
What we know is that after little Rendell escaped that night, he ran to Greater London alone. Perhaps because he was saved by Rodhan’s gang, he also joined the gang.
Two years ago, Rodhan brought Cass and several other people to Surrey to form the Sharks. In just half a year, he incorporated the entire Surrey under his command.
The current Sharks Boxing Club is where his father’s watch shop used to be. His house on Crescent Street, where he usually lives, was his childhood home. ”
Speaking of this, Merclayton smiled bitterly, “I think I know why you were able to break into Mr. Rendell’s house.”
Linde nodded, and Merclayton continued, “Because of these past experiences, Mr. Rendell hates drugs, cults and organ trafficking the most.”
“It’s hard to imagine that Mr. Rendell, who has not received an orthodox education, would grow up so upright in a wild way.” Linde laughed.
“That’s right, no one expected it!” Merclayton nodded slightly. “Then, Mr. Pennywise, can I know your contact information? Please rest assured that I have no ill intentions.”
“Didn’t you follow me all the way here with this idea?” Linde looked at Merclayton, and a smile changed on his face, which made him a little scared.
“Wasn’t it just to see where I live while walking and talking along the way? “Linde laughed.
“I don’t have that idea!” Merclayton said firmly, but Linde waved his hand, “It doesn’t matter, I don’t care much.” As he said that, Linde turned the corner and walked into Mrs. Figg’s garden.
“Anyway…it’s best for ordinary people not to come in.” Linde said.
Merclayton looked down, and his years of detective experience gave him a pair of unique eyes. In the joints between the flowerbed and the cobblestone path, the water was slowly wriggling, as if it had life.
They were like a corner of a huge monster hidden under the soil, surrounding the entire house, ready to devour strangers who dared to break in without permission at any time.
“This…”
Merclayton’s body trembled slightly, with fear, but more excitement.
“My mobile phone was given to me by Rendel, so I don’t know what the number is, and I don’t know if this phone has any hidden functions. So if you want to contact me, go find Mr. Rendel! “Linde stood at the door and looked at Merclayton and said,
His hands were casually behind his back, and his fingers kept tapping gently, using the rhythm to make the rain on the ground wriggle.
Merlayton nodded, “Okay, thank you very much, Mr. Pennywise!”
Linde nodded, then pushed the door open and walked into the house. The moment he pushed the door open, a large amount of white mist rose from his body, which was quickly dispersed by the rain outside the eaves, leaving Merclayton with only a back figure with dry clothes.
