Now...in my case i have found Hair and Footprint. How can i examinate those to see what kind of Hair(curly,stright) i have and what kind of of footprint i have(of an slim person ore havy)...

Hi Bisha, I hope i'm understanding you correctly here...I'll give it a whirl :)

These skills work automatically, so if you didn't get detailed descriptions on your hair and footprint when you first searched the crime scene, you can't do anything else to get more information on them. Many agencies have crime labs which can be used to re-examine evidence, but since you aren't subscribed you don't have this option.

Additionally, your basic Footprint and Thread skills only guarantee that you will FIND evidence of those types at the crime scene, not that you will find details about them. Your ADVANCED Hair analysis improves your chances of getting this information, but doesn't guarantee it either. You can enhance your chances by wearing gear that boosts your Smart numbers.

can i use hypnotism to townspeople? suspects?

Hypnotism is an automatic skill as well and is used on suspects--every time you question a suspect about motives there is a chance (enhanced by charm gear) that hypnotism will unlock a new motive.
