Hello, Mr. Major General - Chapter 1645
Chapter 1645: Pandora’s Box
This ratio was too difficult to calculate.
Gu Nianzhi was not a biology major. She had been searching for information on her phone for a long time, but she was still at a loss.
She got out of the bathtub and wiped the water droplets off her body before starting the maintenance program. It took her almost 20 minutes to complete the entire maintenance program, from water to essence to oil to frost.
She had only simplified a lot of the procedures herself.
If she had gone to the beauty salon and asked a professional to do it for her, it would have taken at least an hour.
However, the time spent on this set of maintenance wasn’t wasted.
She looked at herself in the mirror. Her skin was bright and fair. Her complexion was radiant and glowing. It was a feeling that couldn’t be created by any cosmetics.
Huo Shaoheng changed into a new set of clothes and walked from the bedroom to the living room. Huo Shaoheng just happened to come out of the kitchen, and the two of them met in the living room. Huo Shaoheng’s eyes flashed with surprise.
He stopped in his tracks and smiled. “Miss Gu, dinner is ready. I’m here to invite the two of you to the dining room.”
These words made it sound as if the guest became the host.
Gu Nianzhi smiled meekly and said, “I’m going to look for my dad. Thank you, Mr. Peter.”
Gu Nianzhi turned around and walked towards Lu Jin’s study.
Huo Shaoheng watched Gu Nianzhi’s back disappear in front of him. His expression didn’t expose anything.
..
There was a high-powered computer in Gu Nianzhi’s study that could be used as a server. Lu Jin had assembled it for her.
Gu Nianzhi rarely used this computer unless it was absolutely necessary.
Lu Jin was now sitting behind the computer table and concentrating on typing on the keyboard.
Gu Nianzhi walked over and tapped twice on his computer table with her fingers. “Dad, it’s time to eat.”
Lu Jin’s gaze didn’t leave the computer screen. He smiled and said, “Okay, I’ll be right there.”
He added, “I know the theory.”
Gu Nianzhi: “…”
When Lu Jin wanted to speak, it was difficult for others to stop him.
Gu Nianzhi, who was the only one who could stop him, kept quiet. Lu Jin went on and on.
“… So it’s because of the gravitational friction on Qin Haoshan’s temporomandibular joint. After it’s worn down, it’ll dislocate out of habit. Haha, this is almost like permanent physical damage. This Peter is really ruthless! But I like it!”
Gu Nianzhi blinked. “Dislocate out of habit?”
“Yes, he won’t run his mouth off in the future.”Lu Jin finally raised his head to look at her. “When he yawns, smiles, cries, and even when he gets a little excited when he speaks, it might dislocate!”
Gu Nianzhi’s lips curved at the thought of that scene. “Okay, not that you’ve rest assured, I also have a problem here. Can you help me see what the probability is?”
Gu Nianzhi showed the results on her phone to Lu Jin. “What I want to know is, what are the chances of a father having a flat nose, big nostrils, and a mother with a high nose and small nostrils giving birth to a child with a flat nose and big nostrils?”
Lu Jin looked at the two screenshots that Gu Nianzhi showed her. One was of Wen Shouyi, and the other was of Luo Piaopiao.
At first glance, the two of them didn’t look very similar, but because they both had round faces and flat noses, Lu Jin could tell that they were similar after looking at them a few more times.
Lu Jin hadn’t expected the similarity to be so high.
However, since it had been analyzed by the software, Lu Jin still respected the software’s professional analytical skills.
This was because the human eye and human brain were easily fooled by external things. Only by using software to remove the root of the problem and remove the root of the problem could the truth be revealed.
Lu Jin wasn’t in a hurry to calculate the general possibility. He only stared at Luo Piaopiao’s face for a while and said, “Who is this woman?”
“She is Luo Piaopiao.” Gu Nianzhi’s finger tapped on Luo Piaopiao’s profile picture. “You don’t know the Luo Piaopiao I told you about?”
Lu Jin had told her that he knew Qin Haoshan, but he didn’t seem to know Luo Piaopiao.
Lu Jin raised an eyebrow. “Luo Piaopiao? That’s Qin Yaoguang’s cousin’s daughter? What about Luo Piaopiao’s mother? Do you have a photo?”
Gu Nianzhi shook her head regretfully. “No. I heard that she passed away a long time ago. I was too embarrassed to ask for a photo of her deceased mother.”
Lu Jin chuckled. “Nianzhi, why are you comparing their looks? Why do you think they look alike?”
“I’m not the only one who thinks so. The software also analyzed it that way.” Gu Nianzhi’s finger paused at the 87% probability. “Look, 87% is a bit high, right? Actually, I think it can be even higher.”
“Why?”
“Because according to the software, the biggest difference between the two of them is the shape of their eyebrows. However, the shape of their eyebrows is the easiest part to change. An average person can do it with a eyebrow trimmer. So I’m guessing that the two of them have had their eyebrows trimmed before.”
Gu Nianzhi pointed at Luo Piaopiao’s profile picture and said, “She has arched eyebrows.”
She then pointed at Wen Shouyi’s profile picture and said, “She has straight eyebrows. At first glance, the difference doesn’t seem big, but the software can analyze the difference.”
If not, there was a 95% chance that the two of them were related.
Lu Jin said disapprovingly, “Why don’t you use your facial recognition software to analyze Luo Piaopiao’s face? It might be more similar to the face of the doll you had when you were young.”
Gu Nianzhi: “…”
She thought for a while and searched through the photo album on her phone for a long time. Finally, she found the photo of her holding the doll.
She stared at the doll and found that it was indeed true.
It turned out that Luo Piaopiao was more like a doll from her childhood.
Although she was also similar to Wen Shouyi, the similarity between her and this doll was obviously greater.
“But, why do I think that she looks like Wen Shouyi at first glance and you feel she looks like my doll?” Gu Nianzhi asked in puzzlement.
Lu Jin pointed at his brain. “Because when the brain processes something like this, it doesn’t perform the same technical tests as software.”
“Human brains are analyzed based on impressions. Obviously, you have a deeper impression of Wen Shouyi, so the first thing your brain processes is similar to Wen Shouyi.”
“And I had a deeper impression of your childhood doll, so the first thing I came up with was that it was more similar to your doll.”
Gu Nianzhi immediately understood what he meant.
However, the doll wasn’t alive, but Wen Shouyi was. Gu Nianzhi frowned and said, “Let’s put the doll aside for now. Let’s compare Wen Shouyi and Luo Piaopiao first. We need to start with their parents.”
Lu Jin looked at her with a frown and hesitated for a moment, then said, “What are you trying to prove? It is almost impossible to determine whether they are relatives based solely on their physical appearance. That is because there were many sets of genes that determined one’s appearance, and each set has to be compared with other genes. In the end, if you want to calculate the probability, you’ll have to use the most powerful supercomputer to get the results within a certain amount of time.”
Gu Nianzhi said with a bitter expression on her face, “I know it’s hard to calculate, so I asked for your help. Since I need a supercomputer, then forget it. I’ll think of another way.”
She rolled her eyes and immediately thought of a second way. “Actually, there’s a simple and direct way to prove that they’re related.”
Lu Jin smiled. “Continue.”
“DNA testing!” Gu Nianzhi slapped her forehead. “I’m such an idiot. Why didn’t I think of that earlier? Since the similarity in their appearance suggests that they’re related, then let’s just test their DNA directly!”
“Haha, I was just wondering why you wanted to go further away.” Lu Jin’s lips curled up, but his smile was a little forced.
Gu Nianzhi was keenly aware of this. She propped her hands on the computer table and asked curiously, “Dad, is there anything else? I’ll get their hair, skin, and blood samples. You can just test their DNA for me.”
Lu Jin, not knowing what to say, looked at Gu Nianzhi in a daze.
His daughter had gone off the rails. He was very proud of her intelligence to be able to tell that something was wrong with the appearance of a niece of the Qin family.
But did she know what she was facing?
It was like opening pandora’s box.
In Greek mythology, Pandora was the first human woman created by Zeus to punish Prometheus for stealing fire.
She opened a box and unleashed all the evils in human nature such as greed, hypocrisy, malice, slander, and jealousy, but only closed the box before “hope” came out.
This box was the source of all evil and represented the hopeless future of mankind.
