Chapter 1727 - The Most Ordinary Friend
Hello, Mr. Major General
In the afternoon, Lu Jin brought the DNA sequencing results of Wen Shouyi and Luo Piaopiao to Gu Nianzhiâs apartment.
At first, Huo Shaoheng wanted to take Gu Nianzhi out to watch the lantern festival.
However, upon hearing Lu Jinâs words, Gu Nianzhi became so surprised that she didnât want to go anywhere.
Huo Shaoheng felt a little regretful, but he knew that business was more important.
The 15th day of the first lunar month had passed, and the court was about to begin again.
Lu Jin asked Huo Shaoheng rudely, âMr. Peter, is there nothing else?â
The Committee of State Security and diplomat from the Soviet Union obviously didnât want Peter to know about the DNA sequencing results.
Huo Shaoheng had no intention of staying. He gestured for Gu Nianzhi to make a phone call and smiled. âThen Iâll be leaving first. Call me if you need anything.â
Gu Nianzhi nodded and waved goodbye to him with a smile.
She would tell him anyway. It didnât matter if Huo Shaoheng stayed or not.
Immediately, Gu Nianzhi closed the door after Huo Shaoheng left. She then asked Lu Jin excitedly, âDad, did you get any results?â
Lu Jin took his laptop and placed it on the coffee table in front of the sofa. He connected it to the large wall TV and said, âThe results have been released. Itâs quite interesting.â
As he spoke, he typed out the results of his DNA test on the television screen.
Gu Nianzhi was surprised that he couldnât understand it at all.
Fortunately, Lu Jinâs explanation was simple and easy to understand.
âLook at Luo Piaopiaoâs DNA fragment and then look at this fragment of Wen Shouyiâs...â Lu Jin used a laser pen to highlight the key points on the television screen. âThese two unique fragments are exactly the same, and this is the female X chromosome.â
Gu Nianzhi understood and quickly said excitedly, âDoes that prove that Luo Piaopiao and Wen Shouyi are really related? And theyâre even related from the mother line!â
âBut Wen Shouyi is the gardenerâs daughter, and her motherâs name is Liang Meili, not Qin...â
âThe probability is more than 90%,â Lu Jin answered matter-of-factly.
In science, he was always as careful as possible.
âThereâs only a 90% probability?â Gu Nianzhi was a little disappointed. âDoes that mean thereâs also a 10% probability that the two of them are not related?â
She had thought that the two of them were definitely related.
As Lu Jin nodded, he said seriously, âAll this time, weâve only been able to use DNA to test for direct kinship. This area has already developed to a very mature level. For non-direct kinship, take Luo Piaopiao and Wen Shouyi for example. Letâs assume that they are indeed related, but they are at most cousins. Itâs actually very difficult to identify these two types of kinship.â
âIâve already used my own improved experimental method to test for non-direct kinship. The current accuracy rate can only be said to be more than 90%, but itâs less than 99.99%.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Gu Nianzhi clenched her fists and encouraged herself, âOkay, the 90% probability is high enough.â
âIâll just treat them as relatives. Can we say that Wen Shouyiâs mother, Liang Meili, is actually a member of the Qin Family?â Gu Nianzhi asked tentatively.
Lu Jin thought about it carefully. After a while, he said, âLetâs Test Wen Shouyiâs immediate family relations. Itâs more accurate this way.â
âOkay.â Gu Nianzhi agreed without hesitation.
If Lu Jin had suggested this before today, she might have hesitated.
The grudge between her and Wen Shouyi had little to do with Wen Shouyiâs parents.
Furthermore, Wen Shouyiâs parents were suspected of kidnapping the twelve-year-old Gu Nianzhi. They were already in custody for interrogation, so there was no need for her to step on them again.
However, what Wen Shouyi had done today was too disgusting. Furthermore, she was clearly targeting Gu Nianzhi, so Gu Nianzhi did not want to continue tolerating her. She still had to investigate what needed to be investigated.
âIâll think of a way to get the DNA samples of Wen Dayou and Liang Meili.â
Today was the 15th day of the first lunar month. Relatives and friends could visit their relatives in prison.
Immediately, Gu Nianzhi called the place where Wen Dayou and Liang Meili were being held and asked if she could see Wen Dayou and Liang Meili.
In the end, the other party said that Gu Nianzhi wasnât on their visiting list and that they couldnât meet her today.
However, they would be able to meet her after the 15th of the first lunar month.
Gu Nianzhi didnât want to delay any longer.
She thought about it in her room for a while, but still dialed He Zhichuâs number.
He Zhichu had already handed over his shift and wasnât on duty in the military camp.
He sat in front of the bar counter in a small hall of the Xiang Xue Hai clubhouse. There was a glass of red wine in his hand, and he listened to Xie Qingyingâs words with an indifferent expression.
Xie Qingying noticed that he was not in a good mood and advised him with a heartache, âYoung Master He, why donât you go back and rest? You havenât had a good new year either. Youâve lost weight.â
Just then, He Zhichu looked up at her and smiled.â... You Donât want me to accompany you anymore?â
âOh, Iâd love you to accompany me.â Xie Qingyingâs cheeks were slightly red. âBut your health is more important. I see that youâre quite tired, so Iâd better go back and sleep.â
He Zhichu took a sip of red wine. He wanted to say something, but felt his phone vibrate. He took it out and glanced at it.
It was Gu Nianzhiâs phone.
He Zhichu instinctively slid the phone open to answer. âNianzhi?â
Gu Nianzhi asked him anxiously, âYoung Master He, are you still on duty?â
Just then, He Zhichuâs voice softened. âNo, Iâm fine. Donât worry, we can talk slowly.â
âOkay.â Gu Nianzhi composed herself. âHereâs the thing. Can you help me think of a way to get the hair or blood of Wen Dayou and Liang Meili? I want to test their DNA.â
âOkay.â He Zhichu didnât ask why and agreed immediately. âWait here, Iâll send someone to get it right away and send it to you.â
âThatâs great! Thank you, Young Master He!â Gu Nianzhi was ecstatic as she hugged her phone and spun around.
He Zhichu was in a better mood. He opened his contact list and found one of his most trusted personal secretaries. He sent him a text message asking him to immediately get the hair or blood of Wen Dayou and Liang Meili and send it to him immediately.
He Zhichuâs personal secretary received the text message and also acted quickly. He went to the detention center where Wen Dayou and Liang Meili were temporarily detained.
There was naturally no obstruction for him to go to the detention center.
Moreover, he was not going to see the two people, for he was on official business.
He followed the two medical personnel wearing masks and white coats to Wen Dayou and Liang Meiliâs rooms.
...
Five minutes later, they came out.
He Zhichuâs personal secretary put two small test tubes containing hair, small plastic bags, and two tubes of blood into his briefcase and drove away.
Half an hour later, he arrived at Xiang Xue Club and saw he zhichu.
After He Zhichu took the samples from the personal secretary, he praised him with a smile. âNot bad. Iâll give you a credit later.â
His personal secretary quickly stood up and saluted. âThank you, Chief!â
He Zhichu took the samples and personally delivered them to Gu Nianzhi.
Xie Qingying did not follow him. She sat alone in the small hall of the Xiangxuehai clubhouse and looked at he zhichuâs back and sighed softly.
Only then did her best friend dare to come over and talk to her.
She was quite afraid of He Zhichu. Besides, she did not want to be a third wheel. Therefore, as long as Xie Qingying was with he zhichu, her best friend would consciously not disturb them.
Now that she saw He Zhichu leave in a hurry, her best friend asked curiously, âQingying, what happened? Did you have a fight?â
âNo. Nianzhi has something on, so young master he went to help.â Xie Qingying smiled bitterly and shook her head. âYoung master he is not the type of person to fight with you. When he is unhappy, he will not say a word to you. In fact, I was hoping that he would fight with me...â
That way, she would feel closer to him.
He Zhichuâs occasional absent-mindedness made her heart ache and feel sad at the same time. There was also a hint of nervousness that she did not know how to approach him.
Her best friend was relieved and patted her shoulder with a smile. âThis is how it is when youâre in a relationship with your idol. Good luck!â
âYou speak as if youâre very experienced.â Xie qingying laughed. âTell me, which idol have you been in a relationship with?â
âI havenât, but I have friends...âher best friend teased her with a smile. âLike you, Miss Xie.â
âF*ck! Youâre Not Serious.â Xie qingying pushed her and poured herself a glass of red wine.
Her best friend pressed her glass down and sighed. âYouâve had enough, stop drinking.â
âItâs okay, let me drink a little more.â Xie Qingying pulled her best friendâs hand away and downed the glass in one gulp.
Her best friend looked at her worriedly, she whispered, âI can finally see it now. Each time it has something to do with that Gu Nianzhi, young master he is always acting weird. And sheâs your cousin. What is she trying to do? Didnât they break up? The engagement has already been broken off, yet she still treats herself like an outsider. Is she deliberately keeping him hanging?â
Glancing at her, Xie Qingying lowered her eyes. âI donât have much of a relationship with her. We havenât seen each other for so many years, so Iâm not as close to her as I am to you. She probably treats me the same way.â
âThen why did you watch her call young master he away with just a phone call?â Her best friend was indignant for her.
âMaybe she has something important to do.â Xie Qingying poured herself another glass of red wine. The faint disappointment in her heart was eating away at her heart, and it hurt a little.
âIf itâs something important, why didnât I bring you along? Youâre so capable and have a wide network. Maybe you can help her...â her best friend was very confused.
âItâs okay. Iâll keep her at armâs length from now on anyway.âXie qingying took a sip of her wine. âI canât help it. Letâs just treat her like a normal friend.â
...
He Zhichu drove to the entrance of Gu Nianzhiâs apartment block. It was an hour and a half drive, and it only took him 45 minutes to get there.
Gu Nianzhiâs phone rang. Seeing that it was He Zhichu, she quickly answered the call. âYoung master he?!â
âIâve brought the things. Are you coming out to get them, or do you want me to bring them in for you?â
âSo soon? ! Young Master He, youâre the best!â Gu Nianzhi couldnât help laughing. âWhere are you? At the entrance of the community? Should I ask the guard to let you in?â
After considering for a moment, she changed her mind. âForget it, Iâll go get them myself.â
He Zhichu didnât say anything. He got out of the car and leaned against the door to wait for her.
Not long after, he saw a tall and slender young girl flying out of the entrance of the residential area like a little bird.
She was running in a hurry. Her coat was not buttoned up. It was fluttering in the wind, and her forehead was wet with sweat. However, her big, bright Eyes were very bright. It was as if the winter sun was shining in her eyes. It was the only warmth in winter.
He Zhichuâs heart was soft, but he did not do anything. He took out the two small plastic bags of hair and two tubes of blood from his pocket, âThese are the hair and blood of Wen Dayou and Liang Meili. They were just taken. My personal secretary watched them take them out with her own eyes.â
âThank you, Young Master He!â Gu Nianzhi took the samples and was overjoyed. âToday is the lantern festival, so I wonât hold up young master heâs invitation to meet at dusk.â
Gu Nianzhi winked at He Zhichu. âGoodbye, Young Master He.â
As He Zhichu opened the car door with a half-smile, he replied, âYouâre burning the bridge after crossing it. Nianzhi. I will never help you next time.â
âPlease forgive me.â Gu Nianzhi waved at him. âIâll definitely come to apologize in two days.â
He Zhichu saw that she had something to do, so he stopped pestering her. He got into the car and waved. âYou can go back. Iâll watch you get in before you leave.â
âAlright, Young Master He, you drive carefully.â Gu Nianzhi smiled at him and turned to leave.
He Zhichu sat in the car and watched Gu Nianzhiâs back disappear at the entrance of the residential area before he drove away.
In just a short while, someone in a tall building not far away had taken a long-focal lens and captured the entire scene.
