Chapter 17 Nail Salon Owner
Zhuge Yang was attacked and hit hard on the back of his head with a hard object, causing symptoms of mild concussion.When he fell to the ground, his forehead hit the ground first, making a big bump.

When he woke up, he was surrounded and asked, who did it?

Zhuge Yang ignored the obstruction of Xiao Liang and others and tried to leave the hospital with his head wrapped in white gauze.Xiaojiang limped after him and fell to the corridor with a thud.

"Zhuge Yang" Xiao Jiang's voice was filled with tears.

The person who was about to turn the corridor in front finally turned around and saw Xiao Jiang lying on the corridor with tears in his eyes. He turned around and walked over to help her up.

"Xiao Jiang, I suspect that the man who attacked me last night has something to do with the death of the master. I want to go to the place where I went last night to see."

Xiao Liang held Zhuge Yang's elbow and put away his usual ungrateful expression. "I'll see you off. You just woke up. We don't worry about going out on your own."

Zhuge Yang did not refuse, gave Xiao Jiang a comforting look, and disappeared around the corner of the corridor with Xiao Liang.

After Zhuge Yang's accident, someone has been investigating the surveillance on the roadside, but there is no clue yet.There was another light rain last night, and even if there were any traces, they couldn't be found.

On the sidewalk, under the elm trees, Zhuge Yang bent down while clutching his aching head.

On the bean paste-colored floor tiles, a piece of shiny things stands out.

"What?" Xiao Liang came over and his eyes fell on what Zhuge Yang was holding on his fingertips.

Zhuge Yang took the piece of stuff in front of him and looked at it carefully. He always felt that it looked familiar, but for a while, he couldn't extract any useful memory from his dull head.

Xiao Liang stretched out his hand and pinched it, then turned it over and looked at it.

"This seems to be a nail art piece. You see, it is in the shape of a nail. Judging from the width, it should be the nail piece on the thumb. Why did you pick this up? Someone must have dropped it by passing by." Xiao Liang said and was about to throw it away. .

Zhuge Yang stopped his hand and took the armor piece in his hand again.

The nail plate is transparent, with a pink diamond attached to it. In addition to small silver diamonds on both sides of the pink diamond, there are also dots of silver powder.Zhuge Yang looked at it again and finally understood why it looked familiar.

Nail salon owner, Shang Lili.When he saw each other yesterday, he had seen the hands doing manicures for customers.The nails on each finger of Shang Lili are different, but this pink diamond is the most exaggeratedly decorated among the ten nails.

"Come on, come with me to the nail salon."

"Is it okay for you to run like this, or I'll take you back first, why don't I help you with what you want to do? Hey, Zhuge?" Xiao Liang couldn't persuade him, he could only sigh and start the car.

Beauty Nail Salon, there is a golden iron lock hanging on the glass door.

Zhuge Yang wanted to take out his cell phone to check what time it was, but found that his trouser pocket was empty and his cell phone had been left in the hospital.Turning around to ask Xiao Liang, Xiao Liang didn't have the habit of wearing a watch.He took out his cell phone with a few scratches on the tempered film and squinted to avoid the sun and looked at it.

"It's almost ten o'clock."

It's almost ten o'clock, but the nail salon is not open.Zhuge Yang looked at the sky against the sunshine and felt a little dizzy.He took two steps back, which frightened Xiao Liang.

"My grandma, are you okay? Hurry up, I'll take you back to the hospital."

"Wait, go to Xinxin and ask Rong Shangchao why the owner of the nail salon didn't come today? Also, ask her if she has the contact information of the owner of the nail salon."

Xiao Liang agreed, but firmly sent Zhuge Yang to the car and sat down before leaving.

Zhuge Yang sat in the passenger seat and looked at the cash register inside the Xinxin Xiangrong Supermarket through the car glass.

Xiao Liang walked in, and a figure stood up at the cashier.The two were talking, and the person at the counter seemed to glance at the police car.After a while, Xiao Liang came back.

He got into the car and said, "The supermarket owner's wife just said that the owner of the nail salon was taken away by the police last night."

"Taken away? For what reason?"

"It's said to be an illegal transaction, but the supermarket proprietress doesn't know the details. Let's go back to the bureau first and see who catches her."

Outside the door of the interrogation room, Zhuge Yang and Xiao Liang stood on either side, scratching the crack in the door.

Inside the door, Shang Lili's gorgeous makeup has worn off.Half of the false eyelashes on the left eye fell off, the eyeliner on the right eye was a ball of paste, the lipstick on the mouth spread to the chin in a gradient color, and even the foundation on the cheek was mottled.

Originally, Zhuge Yang wanted to go in and interrogate himself, but Tian Lin, the captain of the second team, refused because he was a client and had a head injury.Tian Lin slapped the table, and the precious watch on his wrist made a thud. "You haven't told the truth yet."

Shang Lili's hands were handcuffed together, placed on her thighs and she pulled her nails.

Zhuge Yang couldn't see clearly the condition of Shang Lili's fingers through the crack in the door. He was so anxious that he wanted to open the door and go in, but Xiao Liang pulled him and told him to keep silent and continue listening.

"I've said it all, we're in free love, not a money transaction. Are you policemen just being idle, and you don't care about dating?"

Tian Lin's voice suddenly rose: "Falling in love?"

"Yes, you said I was prostituted, so I must have money for prostitution. Aren't the police the most important about evidence? Where is the evidence? Without evidence, you are illegally detained." Shang Lili shook her legs and sounded a little proud. .

Tian Lin seemed to want to pat the table again. Perhaps considering that his watch would be innocent, he changed it to a stainless steel water cup on the pier table.There was a muffled sound, and Tian Lin changed the question.

"Don't confuse me here. Tell me, where were you and what were you doing between 18:30 and 19:30 yesterday evening?"

Shang Lili chirped, tilting her head and thinking for a while. "Let's get a manicure, eat some chuanchuanxiang, and then invite my boyfriend to watch a movie at home, and then you guys will catch me."

"Put your hand out."

Shang Lili rolled her eyes, shook her legs and stretched out her hands.The ten fingers were empty.

Zhuge Yang frowned and stared at Shang Lili's expression through the crack in the door.

The Shang Lili I saw today seemed completely different from the smiling and polite boss I saw at the nail salon yesterday.And there was not a single nail on her fingers.

Zhuge Yang was about to wonder if Shang Lili had a twin sister.

He still couldn't hold it back and pushed the door open and entered the interrogation room.Xiao Liang grabbed him but didn't hold him back. He retracted his hand nonchalantly, closed the door, and still scratched the crack of the door.

Tian Lin was not happy about Zhuge Yang's sudden appearance. He picked up the water glass with drooping eyes and made an exaggerated drinking sound.

Zhuge Yang did not look at Tian Lin, but looked directly at Shang Lili.

Shang Lili showed no abnormality when she saw him, and she didn't seem to recognize him as the policeman who visited the nail salon yesterday.

"Do you recognize me?" Zhuge Yang got straight to the point.

Shang Lili tilted her head to look at him, her legs were still shaking, and she didn't speak for a long time.

Zhuge Yang looked at her clean hands. "When I saw you yesterday, your nails weren't like this."

"If you don't like it, just take it off. If you open your own shop, it will be very convenient whether you are making new patterns or removing nail polish."

"What did you use to attack me yesterday? Why did you follow me and attack me? What are you afraid of?" Zhuge Yang walked over and stared at him condescendingly.

Yesterday, he went to the nail salon to investigate, but Shang Lili refused to show her Douyin account because she was busy.Then, he was hit with a sap.

The fallen armor plates were found at the scene, but Shang Lili's armor plates were removed at the same time, leaving no trace at all.

Zhuge Yang stared at Shang Lili's forehead with burning eyes.

From his angle, you can see the half-fallen false eyelashes trembling as his eyes blink.He suddenly turned around and asked Tian Lin what time Shang Lili was captured last night.

Tian Lin screwed on the lid of the thermos cup and replied in a neutral tone: "It's past ten o'clock."

Zhuge Yang's eyelids drooped and he looked again at Shang Lili, who was circling her thumb.

"The time I left your store was 17:40, and it was almost 18:20 when I arrived at the West Beach Road track. I sat on the roadside for about ten minutes. After you attacked me, you ran back to the store and found your When the nails fell off, I simply took off all the rest of the nails on my hands. At this time, it was probably almost 20:00. You said you ate Chuan Chuan Xiang, which store you ate at, and what time you ate. What time did you go back? What time did you contact your boyfriend?"

Shang Lili's thumb stopped circling, and her right thumb rubbed her left thumb back and forth.She did not raise her head to look at Zhuge Yang, and her legs stopped shaking. "Comrade police, I really don't understand what you are talking about. You were attacked, what does it have to do with me?"
