The Black Mirror Hints
I found James' body, but how do I get the hair sample?
1 of 6: Have you tried both left-clicking and right-clicking on James' body?
2 of 6: Apparently, you're going to need something to cut some hair off. Too bad your trusty old chess piece knife broke earlier in the chapter, but there was no way to avoid that.
3 of 6: Maybe there's something in the chapel that will work.
4 of 6: Look on the floor nearby.
5 of 6: There are some sharp shards of glass that Samuel can take.
6 of 6: Get one and use it on James to obtain the hair sample and then move to Hermann's morgue to conduct an analysis.
