Hogwarts Wizard of the Deep

Chapter 187 Rendell's Past
"So...?" Linde was a little puzzled.

"So I hope to gain your friendship!" said Merleighton.

Linde scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, "So you want to exchange the information of another ordinary person for my friendship?"

"No, I don't mean that." Merleton explained, "I just hope that I can... get in touch with that world, even if it's just a little bit, just a little bit."

"..."

Just when Linde was thinking about how to answer him, he directly skipped the topic, "As far as I know, Mr. Rendell is 35 years old this year, and he was the son of a prostitute here in Surrey at that time."

The mother is a prostitute, the father is an unknown old-fashioned plot!
"Many people think that Mr. Rendell's mother was a prostitute, and his father didn't know which client he was. He lived a hard life since he was a child. This argument is the most widely circulated among the middle and lower classes in Surrey. But this argument is only true. half.

Mr. Rendell's father was not a simple guest. He was a watchmaker in the town at that time. He was handsome and modest. He married two wives before, one died of an accident and the other died of a disease.

So it was rumored that his father, Jack Rendell, was an unfortunate man. "

"Then old Lendl went to a service because his physical needs couldn't be met because he was single?" Linde asked.

Merleton nodded, "Not only that, many prostitutes were afraid to provide services for him at that time, and his reputation as an unfortunate man has changed from the initial "marriage will bring misfortune" through word of mouth. Became "Women will be unlucky as long as they communicate with him",
Such a reputation even made it difficult for him to continue his watch business.So by such a coincidence, a new woman took Mr. Rendell's order.

The woman had a father who was seriously ill, was very short of money, and, because she had a scar on her face which made her look terribly frightening, she was not afraid of old Rendell's aura of misfortune.

Mr. Rendell's business is not good and he doesn't have much money, but that woman is cheap!Still young, although there is a scar on his face, but he doesn't mind.

In this way, the two became long-term partners,
I don't know if that's an appropriate description, nor do I know if it's respectful.Sorry, my ability to choose words and make sentences is really lacking. ”Merleton explained that he hoped to add some serious desolation to this story, which is a respect for Rendell.

"It's okay, you said."

"After working together like this for two years, that woman's seriously ill father still passed away," Merleton shook his head, "The only family member that woman gave everything to save has passed away.

Afterwards, the woman planned to withdraw from the industry, and at the same time, Old Rendell also pursued her.In Old Rendell's heart, this woman was the only woman he had been willing to accept him in these years regardless of the rumors outside.

Old Lundell is also a poor person. His parents left this world early. Before they died, they sent old Lundell to a watch shop as a laborer, so old Lundell can deeply understand the woman's feelings. heart.

With so many coincidences, within a month, a former prostitute whose parents died and a miserable watchmaker - married.

After they got married, they gave birth to a son, who is now the famous Mr. Rendell. Logically speaking, there should be a short story behind this.

However, God did not wish.

When Mr. Rendell was three years old, Rendell Sr. contracted drugs.

Old Rendell has always had the habit of smoking, and then somehow, the leaves were infected, and then it became more and more serious. Wait until Mrs. Rendell, that woman, Rendell's mother!
By the time Mrs. Rendell found out that her husband had become a drug addict, it was too late.At that time, he could not turn back.

So one night, late at night.The old Rendell, who came to his senses and was extremely remorseful, committed suicide with a gun.

And this scene was witnessed by the young Mr. Rendell. "

As he said that, Mecleton sighed, "After that, Mr. Rendell stopped talking. In the past, it was called "lost soul". Of course, if you use the current language to explain it, 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 continue to live by selling her property.She can only rely on the belief in saving her son to maintain her hope for life.

She sold the house, sold the store and began to look for doctors, witch doctors, and warlocks with her children. Sure enough, within two years, she was deceived to nothing.

At that time, Mrs. Rendell did not look like a woman. It is said that her skin was chapped all over her body, her hair was scattered and clumped, her body was dirty, and she was wearing tattered dresses.

At that time, she had no money left, and could only rely on begging on the street to maintain basic food and clothing.

However, in this case, a woman gave a helping hand to Mrs. Rendell at that time.

The woman took Mrs. Rendell and Mr. Rendell Jr. to her home, gave them clothes, and gave them food.Hearing this, many people may think that the life of their mother and son may soon be better.

Unfortunately, that enthusiastic woman was a member of a cult in a small town here at the time.

The pope declared himself to be an all-knowing and omnipotent existence, the new Jesus, and founded a sect called New Christianity!

Just like she used all her family wealth to find those deceitful doctors and witch doctors, Mrs. Rendell never put her thoughts on orthodox medicine from the beginning. She believed that the condition of "lost soul" can only be caused by Mystical powers come to the rescue.

Later, under the leadership of that woman, Mrs. Rendell joined this new Christianity.

Perhaps in the hearts of the superiors in this world, faith is just a tool, but for Mrs. Rendell, faith is her only life-saving straw.

After joining the church, Mrs. Rendell prayed devoutly every day. Finally, the new Jesus was influenced by her and gave the old Mrs. Rendell a way to save her lost son! "

As he said that, Merleton looked up at the gloomy sky. The UK is like this. Basically, it is either a rainy season or a snowy season all year round, which is very annoying.

"As I said before, this so-called new Christianity is a complete cult, and that new Jesus is even more scum among scumbags.

He told Mrs. Rendell that the only way to "lose his soul" like Mr. Rendell Jr. was to fill him with his soul again.

Fill it back with other souls.

And the new Jesus also said that because of the compatibility of the body, the soul can only be sacrificed by the closest relatives on their own initiative and voluntarily. Into the body of Mr. Rendell Jr.

Only in this way can he be saved. "

Linde nodded, "He is indeed a scumbag!" At this time, light raindrops were already falling from the sky.

Linde's face remained unchanged, and he continued to walk forward.Seeing this, Merleton followed him obediently and continued to talk.

clap la la la-

"This nonsensical rhetoric is like manna from heaven to this desperate, ignorant woman who has nothing and is eager to save her son. She immediately decided to give her life to save her child.

At the same time, after learning of her consent, the leader signaled her to be calm and wait for a suitable time by observing the astrology.On the other side, they are contacting organ buyers. "

"He is engaged in organ trafficking?!" Linde said coldly.

"That's right, a small church was established to find desperate people like the old Mrs. Rendell. You know, when a person is desperate, they can only believe in illusory gods, and they can only pray for miracles to happen. .This time is the time for this new Christianity to gain their trust.

After that, the leader, the so-called new Jesus, will use various reasons to let the new believer die.Then sell their organs. "

"So... Rendell's mother died too?" Linde asked.

Merleton nodded, "That's right, but Mr. Rendell himself was lucky. He survived. The leader originally planned to kill Mr. Rendell Jr. after the old Mrs. Rendell died."

As he said that, Merleton paused, "There is a person about to be mentioned here——Rodham Capone!"

"Rodham! Just now I heard Cass say that tonight is Rhodeham's party, and that Rhodeham is their gangster idol."

Merleton nodded, "That's right, Rodham Capone was the former gang leader in Greater London, who ruled Greater London for ten years, and now the property has been handed over to his son, Fest Capone. Now Rhodehan has been living in seclusion behind the scenes, which can be regarded as..."

"The godfather of gangsters?" In Linde's mind, an image played by Marlon Brando jumped out of his eyes.

Merleton nodded, "That's right, he is now the godfather of Greater London."

"Hmm, keep talking." Linde nodded, and the rain had already wet them all.

"What Rhodeham hates the most is organ trafficking. I don't know the specific reason. However, after the old Mrs. Rendell's death, when the group of people from the cult wanted to attack Mr. Rendell Jr., Rhodeham's people broke in and took the whole The church was massacred, and Mr. Rendell Jr. was let go casually."

As he said that, Merleton took out a cigarette from his pocket, and before he could cover the match with his hand to light the fire, the smoke was already wet.

Linde waved his finger lightly in front of Meleton's eyes, and the blue fluorescent light flashed across the gray feathers. Just when he thought it was his own eyesight, he saw the wet smoke on his mouth fade away little by little. Wet color, and at the end of the cigarette butt, a small blue flame popped out and lit the cigarette.

Linde looked at him, "What?! Feelings are in place, isn't it uncomfortable if you don't have one?"

Merleighton's pupils kept trembling, his fingers were clamped stiffly on the cigarette holder, and he took a deep breath to calm his fluttering mood.

"It's incredible," he said slowly.

"Continue to talk about what happened before." Linde didn't say much about it,
"I don't know what happened after that. It is said that he saw his mother's chest cut open that night, and his autism was cured. It is also said that he met other people and things later. His autism That's good.

What is known is that after Little Lundell escaped that night, he ran to Greater London alone. Perhaps because he was saved by Rhodeham's gang, he also joined the gang.

Two years ago, Rodham brought Cass and several other people to Surrey to set up the Shark Group, and in just half a year, the entire Surrey County was under his command.

The current Shark Boxing Club is where his father's watch shop used to be, and his house on Crescent Flower Street, where he often lives, is his childhood home. "

As he said that, Meckleton smiled wryly, "I know why you were able to break into Mr. Rendell's house."

Linde nodded, and Mecleton 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 savagely and upright." Linde laughed.

"That's right, no one thought of it!" Merleton nodded slightly. "Then, Mr. Pennywise, may I know your contact information? Please rest assured that I have no malicious intentions."

"Didn't you follow all the way here because you had this idea?" Linde looked at Moleton with a different smile on his face, which made him a little timid.

"Walking and talking along the way, isn't it just to see where I live?" Linde laughed.

"I don't have that idea!" Meleton said firmly, but he didn't want Linde to wave his hand, "It doesn't matter, I don't really care." After speaking, Linde turned the corner and walked into the garden of Mrs. Figg's house .

"Anyway... it's best for ordinary people not to come in," Linde said.

Merleton looked down, years of detective experience gave him a pair of unique eyes.I saw that in the joints between the flowerbed and the cobblestone path, the flowing water was slowly wriggling, as if it was alive.

Like the corners of a gigantic monster hidden under the earth, they surround the house, ready to devour any stranger who dares to enter without permission.

"This……"

Merleighton's body trembled slightly. There was fear in it, but more excitement.

"My mobile phone was given to me by Rendell, so I don't know what the number is, and I don't know if the phone has any hidden functions. So if you want to contact me, go to Mr. Rendell!" Linde Standing at the door and looking at Merleton said,

His hands were casually behind his back, and his fingers kept tapping lightly, using the rhythm between them to induce the rainwater on the ground to squirm.

Merleton nodded, "Okay, thank you very much, Mr. Pennywise!"

Linde nodded, and then pushed the door open and walked into the house. The moment he pushed the door in, a large white mist rose from his body, and the white mist was quickly dispersed by the rain outside the eaves, leaving only Merck Layton left behind a figure whose clothes had dried.
