Chapter 266 Enlarged Pattern

Major Crimes Unit.

A temporary office.

Guan Feng has a total of six men under his command.

I won't go into Liu Shengguo and Huang Lili, they're on the same side!

The two officers from Xucheng and the two from the Development Zone Branch were both elites from their respective police stations.

Guan Feng wanted to test their abilities, so he asked, "Tell me, how do you all plan to investigate this case?"

Liu Shengguo said, "I think we should still investigate the source of this DNA. DNA technology is not so absolute now. In cases of homologous similarity, there may be cases such as twins."

Gao Dacheng nodded and said, "I think this is feasible! After all, the debris in the crevices of fingernails is not so easy to leave behind, so we should not miss such clues."

Zhao Yang from the Development Zone Branch said, "Could we reconfirm the victim's identity?"

Huang Lili: "I think..."

Guan Feng listened to the discussion and nodded, saying, "What you all say makes sense. The serious crime squad found clues but let it go so easily. They must have their reasons. Here's what we'll do! Zhao Yang, you two go back and interview the people who reported the case. See if you can find any more details about the identities of the people involved!"

"Gao Dacheng, you two are in charge of DNA tracing and comparison. The main task is to investigate the family members to see if they abandoned the child at the time."

"Lily, please compile the case file further, especially the photos of the victims. I need to see them."

The magnified details of the victim's hands when he viewed the footage earlier warrant further investigation.

"receive!"

"receive!"

"receive!"

Everyone nodded and got to work.

Huang Lili then logged onto the intranet and retrieved photos of the crime scene, more than a hundred of which were in high definition.

She pushed the computer screen towards her and said, "Captain, come take a look!"

Guan Feng looked over and saw mostly photos of the environment at the time and photos of the victims.

Guan Feng glanced at the photos and then flipped to the details of the hands. He zoomed in on the photos and saw that the victim's hands were painted with nail polish. The nail polish was very special, with glitter mixed in and a cross-shaped sickle pattern painted on it.

Such designs are rare on nails, and even rarer for women.

Huang Lili asked in surprise, "Captain, this is actually a cross-shaped sickle!"

Liu Shengguo said, "I almost missed such a detail!"

Guan Feng waved his hand and activated the comparison function.

Smart glasses! Search for related patterns!

The next moment.

The smart glasses displayed icons that only he could see.

They are all similar cross-shaped sickles.

"This is... the Death Alliance?"

Guan Feng frowned as he looked at the information that popped up on the smart glasses. This design was more common abroad and was also known as the Death Alliance, which seemed to be an organization. However, such an organization did not exist in China.

It must be a coincidence!

However, Guan Feng still had this doubt in his mind.

He asked, "Lily, do you usually like to get your nails done?"

Huang Lili said, "Occasionally, do you think this manicure is a clue?"

Guan Feng nodded and said, "Yes, patterns like this are not common, especially a woman making a cross-shaped sickle pattern, which is even rarer. I plan to start from this point and see if I can find any clues."

Huang Lili said, "I heard from my sister that Qingxin likes to get her nails done, and sometimes she even asks my sister to do it with her."

Guan Feng asked, "Oh? Then I'll call Qingxin and ask."

He paused, then shook his head and said, "The case is under investigation, so it's not appropriate to send it to her. Here's what we'll do: you two pack your things and come with me. Enlarge the details of the nails, print them out, and bring them with you; they'll be useful."

Huang Lili said, "Okay."

He then took a screenshot and printed it out.

A moment later.

The three drove to Qingxin Xiaozhu in the antique street.

Chen Qingxin was attending to customers when she saw Guan Feng and his group arrive. She smiled, apologized to the customers, and then strolled over.

"Brother Guan, what brings you here?"

Chen Qingxin spoke in surprise.

Guan Feng glanced at Chen Qingxin's nails, which looked pink and glossy, and asked, "Do you usually like to get your nails done?"

Chen Qingxin nodded and said, "Yes, is there something you need?"

Guan Feng said, "It's like this! It involves a case, and the victim's nail art is rather unusual. I need your help to recommend a few nail designers who are familiar with nail art, especially those who can create designs?"

Chen Qingxin said, "No problem! I'll recommend my designer to you, Coco! She's very famous in Hua'an."

Guan Feng nodded, received the address and WeChat message, then said goodbye and left.

Get on the bus.

The group headed straight to COCO's design studio.

The design studio is located on the third floor of Wanda Plaza. The rent is extremely high, and the high-end decoration at the entrance makes it clear that it's not a place that ordinary people can afford.

Guan Feng entered and briefly introduced himself.

A tall woman dressed in loose black clothes walked over and greeted her with a smile, "Hello! My name is Coco. Are you Officer Guan? Qingxin called; you have a case to investigate?"

Guan Feng nodded and said, "That's right! It involves a female victim who had her nails done. Can we determine which salon she went to by looking at the design of her nails?"

COCO thought for a moment and shook her head, saying, "Although the techniques of different nail salons vary, they are all pretty much the same now, unless there are some special patterns or designs."
