Brain Science Event Book

After opening the iron door and setting up the hand-painted signboard, Qian Hanliang-Penny began to clean the store with a vacuum cleaner, which was his preparation work before welcoming customers every day.

A small studio less than five pings in size can provide various services such as beauty makeup, skin care, and manicure; recently he has also started to take over the backstage beauty makeup of some performance-related personnel, but unfortunately Xinmi usually prefers to choose Women, otherwise the customer base he can meet will be wider than it is now.

When the mobile phone received a message, he pressed it on. It was a new customer who made an appointment last night; already arrived?Before he could reply, the bell for pushing the door rang.

"Welcome! Is this Miss Tang?"

The woman who walked into the shop lightly wiped the raindrops off her shoulders and smiled, "Hmm! May I ask if Penny is..."

"I'm Penny." He explained with a smile, and she covered her lips in surprise; he put away the vacuum cleaner and pointed to the cleaned seats. "Excuse me...this way please!"

"I thought Penny was a girl!" She smiled awkwardly, but her attitude quickly changed to a generous one. She took off her coat, revealing an elegant black lace dress.

"Many people think so! But there are boys called Penny, right?"

"Well, it's rare." She pointed to two empty seats, "Which side do I want to sit?"

"It's all right!" Qian Hanliang put on the gloves carefully, and looked at her slender and well-proportioned figure, "Is Miss Tang a model?"

"Oh no! I'm a university lecturer."

"Really? Your figure is super good! You must be the envy of many female students."

"thanks."

"Then... what kind of service are you going to do today?" Taking a closer look, she even took good care of her skin. There were no shortcomings such as acne and enlarged pores, and the fine lines around her eyes were almost invisible.

"I checked online reviews, and I heard that your manicures here are very special?"

"Well, it's my specialty." He took a nail catalog and a few magazines, "Is there a look you want to make? Or do you want to refer to a few specific styles from my side?"

"Shall I take a look?" She took the catalogue.

The catalog is done very carefully, regardless of the overall shape and color matching, it is clear at a glance. "Are these photos the hands of customers?"

"Some are! But if you don't want me to get the catalog to show, I have to find another way."

"So is it his girlfriend's hand? Or..." She couldn't help but glance at his gloved hands.

He smiled and replied, "Well, yes!"

She held her chin and slowly turned the page, "Then your girlfriend has worked so hard! You've been melted and wiped off repeatedly like this. Even if you like to do manicures, you need a lot of patience, right?"

He laughed a few times, and heard her whisper "Ah", "Did you see the look you like?" Finally, he had a chance to get rid of this topic, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Pointing to one of the photos, she said, "This bunny is cute... but pink, a little too cute?"

"If you want to keep the black as the base, then I can also change the color for you; the catalog is just a reference."

"That's great, I like black; but I also quite like that... piano-like feel." She flipped back. "The people who come here to get their nails done are mostly young girls, right?"

"It can be mixed and matched! Piano patterns and rabbits are also a good idea." He approached and accidentally found her tail ring. "Well, most of them are young people, college students, and some office workers."

"Oh! You can mix and match..." She seemed to smile heartily. "I seem to see some girls' hands appear more than once."

"Yeah! There are some regular customers. But it's rare to see someone with an identity like a lady... Which school do you teach?"

"Big T, is Penny interested in listening?"

"Haha! Okay, what kind of class is it?"

"Cognitive neuroscience." She paused for half a second and met his eyes. "Specializing in the study of knowledge related to the brain."

He scratched his head and smiled, "Sounds like a great deal!"

"It's just that people understand the human brain better than people who have never been in contact with it!" She returned to the catalog, "It's decided! Then make a combination similar to the music background and rabbits."

"Hmm! I'll prepare, please wait a moment."

After Qian Hanliang walked into the gap behind, Tang Yingli quickly turned on the video camera on his mobile phone and took pictures in the catalogue.

There are more than a dozen pages in the catalog, and it is definitely too late to take pictures carefully one by one, so she has to make a selection, at least start with objects with different hand shapes...

Unpredictably, he poked his head out again, "What color do you want the rabbit to match?"

She immediately hid the phone, pretending to hesitate. "Hmm...bright orange?"

"Good choice!" He smiled and retracted.

She let out a breath and seized the opportunity to continue filming.

Opening the canned coffee and taking a sip, Zhou Jinglin slowly walked back to her seat.

After checking the phone number this morning, it was confirmed that Qian Daxin was one of the drinkers named Cui Jiajia on the stage, four times in total; Qian Daxin also paid for the meals, so the possibility of their private transaction is obviously extremely high.

But what does this represent?Motive for the crime?

Most importantly, why would the murderer be a woman?

But in this low pressure where the identity of the murderer has not been confirmed for a long time, at least there is good news for her-the team leader is allowed to leave!So tomorrow afternoon, you can safely pick Li Yuejiao home.

"Ah! I didn't find it!"

Cai Yuwei covered his face and shouted.Jinglin found that his screen was showing a nighttime video of a certain intersection. "What are you looking at?"

He yawned, "Intersection cameras around the first crime scene!"

"Looking for that suspicious girl?" He nodded honestly.After searching Cui Jiajia's residence yesterday, he was finally willing to go home and rest. "Did you find anything?"

"No!" Cai Yuwei shook his head with a wry smile, "I'm so afraid to hear that now!"

"Oh, that's what the teacher is like!" She snickered and patted his shoulder vigorously as a sign of encouragement. "And you performed well yesterday! You quickly identified the restaurant the victim had visited before; it also matched the contents of the stomach." Afterwards, she had already learned the general content of the autopsy report from Tang Yingli.

"Jinglin! I really admire you."

"Well, what do you say?"

"You and the teacher can approach the corpse as if nothing happened, let alone she is very good at spot inspection."

She shrugged, "It's nothing, right? How can the criminal police not touch the corpse?"

"For you guys... maybe it's really nothing!" He muttered to himself.

"what?"

"No, it's okay!" He stretched his muscles and refocused on the screen.

The door of the criminal team's office was pushed open, Jing Lin was drinking coffee, and looked up to find that Tang Yingli had returned!

"teacher?"

Tang Yingli walked directly between the two, "Come on! New clues." What was pushed onto the table was a mini flash drive.

Cai Yuwei made the first move, "Let me take a look!"

"Well, I'm sorry to trouble you."

"What's that? Besides, your nails..." Jing Lin pointed to her hand.

"I just made it, isn't it pretty?" She blinked, showing off her manicure, "I have to say that man's hands are really skillful! Although he is a boy, it's no wonder so many girls are willing to let him do skin care and makeup on themselves."

"Could this be the only harvest you've spent all morning?"

"Sure. Of course. No. Yes!" She snapped her fingers, "I secretly took pictures of the manicure catalog in his store, and I might be able to find the connection between the victim and the murderer; and... I strongly suspect that he lied to me. "

Tang Yingli rested her chin, and the rabbit on her index finger jumped on her pink lips, "Although it was a bit of speculation at first, I paid special attention to his hands when he was doing manicure, and confirmed that most of the displays in the catalog were his hands. As an experimental product, that is, to make nail pieces and then paste them for display, tsk! What a skill!"

Cai Yuwei clicked on the video and pressed stop, "Is this his hand?"

"Yup."

Jinglin leaned closer; the photo in the catalog had slender fingers and a slightly pale complexion. If Tang Yingli hadn't confirmed it, it would be difficult to tell whether it was a man or a woman just by looking at the knuckles and the back of the hand.

"Also, I also found a look similar to the victim's...just this one."

This person's fingers are short and slightly fleshy. They are girls' hands. "Crown, deer..." Jing Lin couldn't help rubbing her eyes. These are very common patterns!

"I didn't know until I did it. It turns out that nail art is so particular now! Not only are the patterns three-dimensional, but there is also a special machine that can dry them quickly..." Tang Yingli smiled and admired the nails, "By the way! The manicurist is a handsome guy!"

"You look fascinated by him!" Jing Lin's smile was a bit complicated, "What did you mean when you said that you strongly suspected that he was lying?"

She pursed her lips and smiled, "It's literally..."

"Xiao Zhou!"

Lu Tingfeng waved at Jinglin, "That Qian Daxin has to go to work today, let's go check it out!"

"Oh!" She grabbed the notebook and stuffed it into her jacket, "I'll go with the big head senior, Ah Wei will read it first, as for the teacher..."

"I'm leaving too!" Tang Yingli folded her arms around her chest, "I have classes in the afternoon."

"Then let's contact by message." She hurriedly dropped the words and quickly followed Lu Tingfeng.

"It's almost time." Tang Yingli pushed his glasses, "I'm going to class, study hard!" She patted the back of his chair, causing him to react like an electric shock. "Don't be nervous, take your time!"

"oh oh!"

Looking at the back of the calmly leaving, Cai Yuwei rubbed his temples, "Teacher must have never had a boyfriend!" He said firmly but in awe, and continued to play this type of video.

The video is only twenty seconds long.It can be seen that there are still many photos that have not been photographed. It should be because time does not allow it?He pressed replay and started taking screenshots.

But when he checked a certain catalogue, the base color of his nails unexpectedly caught his attention!

"Turkey blue..." He was stunned, "Where did you see it?"

The base color of Cui Jiajia's nails is pink. The murderer looks light red because he sees through the monitor, but it should actually be pink.

Türkiye blue...shouldn't be!

In a flash of inspiration, he immediately consulted the scene photos of the first case.

The lighting under the viaduct was dim, so even with the flash, the photos were overexposed; he opened his eyes wide, and in close-up, he could clearly see the undertone of her nails.

"This...is this!"

The moles on the knuckles are identical...indicating the same person!

The first victim also went to this studio to get her nails done!

Not a coincidence... definitely not!The connection between the two has increased again! "Could it be a customer from the same store?" Cai Yuwei then compared it with the woman suspected of being the murderer.

But unlike the two victims who have a complete close-up, the difficulty of comparison has increased a lot; only when she checked in, the moment when she handed out the banknotes on the counter was the most clear.

Rabbits, hearts...are common elements in nail art and cannot be used as evidence.

Cai Yuwei changed the screen in the elevator. The time when she left the hotel was [-]:[-]...

etc!Seven o'clock, nineteen?

They received a report call at about 26:26; she checked in at [-]:[-], and the normal check-out time is [-]:[-]...so she extended the check-in time?

After committing the crime, she should have been able to leave the scene as soon as possible; why should she stay an extra hour?

And it was she who went back to "her room" for an extra hour!

He gritted his teeth and replayed the scene of her entering the elevator. The moment she entered the elevator, she brushed her hair, and then stood in front of the control panel until she walked out of the elevator. The counter filmed her with a calm expression when she left... even With a confident posture.

However, just because she stayed for an extra hour, she made up for the extra time.Cai Yuwei especially froze at the scene where she was handing out the money, and suddenly found her hand...

Hiding in a coat coat?

This might be a clue!He stood up abruptly and shouted at Chen Huomu who had just walked out of the file room: "Senior Amu!"

He was taken aback, "Ah Wei! Why are you shouting so loudly?"

"The room where the victim and the suspected murderer stayed is still locked, right?"

Chen Huomu froze, nodded and said: "Yes! They called just now to ask when the blockade will be lifted..."

"I'll go and have a look at the scene!" He knocked on the door and broke into the team leader's office, "Team leader! Borrow an official car!"
