Skin Painting Technician

Jiang Ling, a make-up artist at a funeral home, works every day to "give back face" to the dead. Until that rainy night, a faceless female corpse was sent to the morgue. She painted the face as usual, but the corpse sat up on its own and said softly: "It looks really like it." Then the face peeled off like paper and disappeared. She found a set of old paintbrushes and a fragment of music from her mother's belongings. When her friend Xiao Min asked her to help her "become more beautiful", she used the pen to lightly add a few strokes. The next day, Xiao Min's beauty shocked the whole street, but there was a knife mark on the back of her neck. That night, Xiao Min disappeared, leaving only a complete piece of skin peeled off her face. It turns out that besides paper-making, there is a more sinister craft in this world called skin painting. Use the faces of the living as paper and the bones of the dead as pens. Paint a face, change a life. And she is the last descendant of the painted skin family. During the investigation, she met a man named Chen Du. With a black bone, he guarded a paper shop. He said: "Your mother is not dead. She just gave her face to others." Jiang Ling looked at herself in the mirror and found that the face was slowly turning into another person. Painting skin and bones is difficult to paint soul. Behind every new face, there is an old skin that has been peeled off. And the fate of three generations of women is written on her face.
