Weird slang "rungleech" or "you-shaped hole" explain please
Can anyone explain those? The second one was when Parvati talks with Thomas (I think that was his name): "This place had a you-shaped hole, and now it doesn't"

The first, I dunno. It makes me think there's a kind of pest called that, and then people use that as an insult, towards people they see as vermin. It's a word that can use as a fictional swear that doesn't really 'mean' anything to us, but we can still kinda feel the rude intent behind it.

For the second, it's like saying "I missed you", or "You were missed." - "this place is not complete without you, because when you're not there, it's like there's a hole here that only you can fill".

Thanks.
So the second part of the sentence "and now it doesn't" means that he is not missed anymore in that city?

Yeah. "That hole has now been filled by his presence."
