(Sunday extra two chapters)
As Luo Ziling walked through the gates of the Haiding District Police Station forensics department, his heartbeat quickened uncontrollably with excitement.
Luo Yuqing had a similar reaction.
“Soon, we will know the truth,” as they entered the elevator and the doors closed, enclosing them in the small sealed space, Luo Yuqing squeezed out a smile and said to Luo Ziling, “Suddenly, I’m not sure I want to know the result. What should I do?”
“Now that we’re here, let’s get to the result as soon as possible,” actually, Luo Ziling felt the same as Luo Yuqing.
When they exited the elevator, Luo Yuqing’s friend was already waiting outside.
She was also a pretty young girl, though not as breathtakingly beautiful as Luo Yuqing or Yang Qingyin.
She was petite, the type of beauty that’s common.
“This is my friend, Li Muqing, who just started working here last year after graduating,” Luo Yuqing introduced the two people with her, “This is my junior, a super idol from Yan University, Luo Ziling.”
“Hello,” the short girl named Li Muqing reached out proactively to shake hands with Luo Ziling, her eyes spinning as she looked at him.
Luo Ziling took off his glasses and grinned sheepishly at Li Muqing, “Hello, sorry for the inconvenience today.”
Seeing Luo Ziling without his glasses, Li Muqing’s eyes lit up, then she glanced at Luo Yuqing and couldn’t help but laugh, “You two do look alike, one incredibly beautiful, the other incredibly handsome.”
“We haven’t eaten yet!” Luo Yuqing urged Li Muqing, “You said a blood draw would suffice, so let’s hurry up and get our blood taken. That way we can know the results sooner and go have lunch earlier.”
“Come with me,” Li Muqing beckoned them to follow her towards the lab, then she added apologetically, “I just got here, and I’m in charge of administrative affairs, so I’m not clear on the specifics of the testing. Later, one of our handsome guys here will explain everything to you.”
“That handsome guy, he’s your boyfriend, right?” Luo Yuqing asked with a gossip’s interest.
Li Muqing’s face turned crimson, and she shook her head a bit coyly, “Not yet.”
“Give it some time, and he will be for sure, hehe,” Luo Yuqing teased softly, “Don’t forget to have that handsome guy treat us to a meal when it happens.”
“You could ask him yourself later, with you being such a beautiful girl, he definitely won’t refuse,” Li Muqing said, her cheeks flushed with shyness.
Luo Yuqing wanted to tease her a bit more, but then she saw a tall man in uniform approaching and quickly shut her mouth.
Li Muqing took a few quick steps forward to whisper something to the police officer, then gestured towards Luo Ziling and Luo Yuqing.
The man looked at Luo Ziling and Luo Yuqing, his gaze lingering on Luo Yuqing’s face for quite a while, an expression of shock on his face.
However, he quickly composed himself and asked doubtfully, “The suspected shared father you have in mind, didn’t he come?”
The question made Luo Ziling and Luo Yuqing look at one another in confusion.
“Aren’t the two of us enough?” Luo Yuqing asked, puzzled.
“Not enough,” the police officer shook his head, “All three parties must be present to conduct the verification. No, it’s not that he must be present, his blood sample or hair would suffice.”
Luo Ziling and Luo Yuqing looked at each other, both seeing surprise in the other’s eyes.
The officer continued, “If one of you can confirm that you are born of that person, there’s no need for verification; only the one in question needs to be tested.”
Luo Yuqing understood the male police officer’s intention.
If she suspected she was born of the same father as Luo Ziling, there was no need for a DNA comparison between her and Luo Ziling; a comparison between her and Luo Ziling’s father would suffice.
In other words, their trip today was purely in vain.
Without the blood sample or something else from Luo Ziling’s father, like hair or secretions, it was impossible to prove whether she and Luo Ziling were born of the same father.
However, Luo Yuqing didn’t give up and asked the male police officer, “We can’t determine anything just by doing a DNA comparison between the two of us?”
“It’s possible to exclude, but not to confirm,” he replied.
“What does that mean?” Luo Ziling looked at the male police officer with a face full of confusion.
“If you are not siblings, you can be excluded with STR!”
“What is STR?” Luo Yuqing was also confused.
The male police officer, flaunting his knowledge, explained to Luo Ziling and Luo Yuqing, “STR refers to specific genetic loci on chromosomes, differentiated by X and Y. If the results of your genetic comparison show a very low compatibility rate, then you can be excluded from being brother and sister. However, a high compatibility rate still can’t confirm a sibling relationship. To confirm whether you share the same father or mother, there has to be a blood sample or other form of sample from either parent to check their DNA sequence. Only then can it be determined.”
“I see!” Luo Yuqing and Luo Ziling almost simultaneously blurted out these words, their tones strikingly similar.
Since Luo Yuqing was a great beauty, the male police officer was very patient in his explanation, “If you need, we can first test your DNA sequences. If… it’s possible to exclude a sibling relationship, then there’s no need to test the father or mother.”
“Okay, let’s test it,” Luo Yuqing voiced her opinion, then looked at Luo Ziling, her eyes seeking his agreement.
“Sure,” Luo Ziling readily agreed.
The male police officer didn’t say much else and took them to the sampling room.
Only a tiny blood sample was needed for DNA sequence testing, just a little squeeze from a fingertip was enough, which relieved Luo Yuqing who had initially thought she would need to give a large vial of blood.
After giving their samples and asking the male police officer some questions, the two left the laboratory escorted by Li Muqing.

“Muqing, please don’t let anyone else know about our matter, okay?” As they were about to leave, Luo Yuqing earnestly requested, “Aside from your boyfriend, please don’t tell anyone else, alright?”
“We will definitely adhere to the principle of confidentiality,” Li Muqing smiled in response, “Whether it’s your information or the test results, we won’t tell a third party. Please trust in the professional integrity of the People’s Police.”
“You’re a police officer too?” Seeing Li Muqing in plain clothes, Luo Ziling curiously asked.
“Don’t think about hitting on the beautiful police officer; she already has a boyfriend,” Luo Yuqing, pulling on Luo Ziling’s hand, said goodbye to Li Muqing, “Once the results are out, tell me right away, and then I’ll treat you to a meal.”
The two had thought the results would come out quickly, but were told it would take at least two days, so they had no choice but to leave.
“Sister, it was quite the needless excitement today,” Luo Ziling said to Luo Yuqing with a wry smile as they walked out of the evidence identification center, “We couldn’t even get the results right away.”
“Let’s wait for it, the results will come soon.” Luo Yuqing, holding Luo Ziling’s hand, smiled, “Hurry up and treat me to a big meal; I’m starving to death.”
“Okay,” Luo Ziling agreed and then joked, “Am I treating you as your little brother, or as your date?”
“Today, you’re not my brother; you’re my man-god.” Luo Yuqing said, and unashamedly linked her arm through Luo Ziling’s, pulling him along, “Turns out walking the streets with a handsome guy really feels great!”
