Chapter 205: Puzzle Skin VIII
Riverside Memorial
Levi sat across the man named Aron Butler. His eyes scrutinizing every inch of him. Aron was of average build, a little overweight by a pound or two in the slicked blond’s opinion, with dark brown military cut hair.
Levi scanned the small office, it was clean, but old and reeked the scent of industrial bleach. His eyes rested on Aron, "Mr Butler, it’s a pleasure to finally meet you." he said smiling, legs crossed comfortably while the man seemed obviously tense at the situation he was in. It was just minutes before when he brought the body of a man after receiving a call. He was about to extract some of the vital organs while they were still fresh when the crisp suited man and his associates of three men barged into his business.
"I don’t understand why you’re here, who are you people anyway?" the brunet demanded, as his eyes swept over the open door leading to the back room where they performed embalming.
Three men in suits were snooping around the funeral home.
Levi rolled his eyes and clicked his tongue. He was wasting his time, pretending to be innocent.
"Aron, let’s not waste each other’s time and just tell us who you’re supplying the organs you’re collecting here." the blond suggested.
Aron remained silent, and Levi could see he was genuinely afraid for his life and it wasn’t because of their presence. It was for something else.
"Grey Gang, Selby, NPK Scotland Green, Reed Road, ferry Lane?" Levi started, deciding to give out gang names starting from the North London Gangs while observing the man’s reaction. Just North London had at least 46 gangs from his knowledge. All of which had areas or streets they are considered to take control of. Over 200 gangs in the whole of London.
"Mitchellbrook, Skrilla, SOC, Kilburn Bandits?" he continued, still finding no reaction. "It definitely won’t be the Mali boys." Levi thought out loud, this wasn’t their style.
He sighed, he can’t waste time enumerating over 200 gangs and waiting for him to react. He had to narrow it down, think of the viability of the organs he delivers.
At most Thoracic organs like the heart and lungs can only be viable for transplant within 4 to 6 hours. The liver can function for up to 12 hours, kidneys lasting the longest up to 36 hours.
