Xu Yishen was a genetic engineering student of the Biological Science Department, and he knew the laws related to gene inheritance very well. Autosomal inheritance was divided into ‘dominant inheritance’ and ‘recessive inheritance’, when both parents were AA recessive genes, the child had a 100% probability of AA genotype.
Xu Yishen pointed to another family portrait and said, “Xingwen and Pingce are right. Roland and his wife are both single eyelids, they are Leah’s biological parents. A few family photos are just for us to find out this key point!”
Yue Xingwen guessed, “Perhaps, the Roland couple lost this daughter back then, and may have accidentally mistaken her with another family’s child after giving birth in the hospital, and in the end, Leah was led into straying into an orphanage and being adopted by this couple?”
Jiang Pingce also agreed with this speculation. “Judging from the attitude of Leah’s parents towards her. The couple already knew that she was not their biological daughter, and they probably had no way to give birth at the beginning, adopted Leah from the orphanage, and later, after giving birth to their biological son, they ignored this adopted daughter and were extremely indifferent.”
Lin Manluo sighed lightly. “There are quite a lot of examples like this in reality. Leah is really pitiful.”
Zhuo Feng pointed to the family portrait in the painting. “Look at the family portrait of Rolands, Daisy and Alice, the two girls had double eyelids, but Roland and his wife had single eyelids. According to the laws of genetic inheritance, are these two daughters not biological?”
Xu Yishen nodded. “That’s right. The double eyelids are at least the AA genotype, but the Roland are both AA recessive genes, and it’s impossible to give birth to daughters with dominant genes. Therefore, Daisy and Alice may also be adopted.”
Ke Shaobin adjusted his glasses and summarized while recording these character’s relationships in his laptop. He concluded, “That is to say, Daisy and Alice are adopted, and Leah is the biological daughter of the Roland family. After the death of Leah’s adoptive parents, she not only can obtain the inheritance left by her adoptive parents, but she also found her biological parents, who may also leave her a large fortune?”
Xin Yan said coldly, “Her death is most likely not a killing for love——but for money.”
Liu Zhaoqing said in agreement, “The three corpses we found in the garden are the Roland couple and Leah, they are the family of three whose blood is thicker than water, so who will benefit the most after the death of the Roland couple and Leah?”
Everyone looked at each other and concluded at the same time, “The sisters, Daisy and Alice.”
Because, nominally, the sisters were still the daughters of the Roland couple, and legally speaking, they all had the right to inherit property. Roland’s family had the financial resources to set off millions of fireworks and put on a fireworks show for their youngest grandson’s birthday.
If the Roland couple made a will in private, or privately promised to leave a huge amount of fortune to their daughter Leah in the future, it would be logical for the two sisters, Daisy and Alice to kill Leah after they knew it.
Substitution and exchange were not necessarily for affection, but might also be for identity and property.

The identity of the ‘true daughter’ of the Roland couple and the huge wealth in their names were the key. The Roland couple were also killed by the murderer, which looked very much like extermination, which was enough to prove that the murderer wanted to bury the secret underground and stole the property.

Zhang Xiaonian suddenly whispered, “Senior brother, this villa should look like it has four floors from the outside, but when we took the stairs from the inside, the entrance hall on the 2nd floor is blocked by the painting <Mona Lisa>, which always teleported us to different illusions, and there is no staircase at all leading to the third floor. Could it be that there are other clues on the 3rd and 4th floors?”

The exterior wall of the villa was smooth and difficult to climb, but this was not a problem at all for a group of students with special abilities. Jiang Pingce lifted his right hand and used the coordinate system to send everyone up to the sky collectively, stopping at the 3rd floor.
Yue Xingwen tried to open the window and found that the window was locked, he simply took out his <Modern Idiom Dictionary> and smashed it hard, smashing the window directly, and then nimbly rolled into the room, and the other students quickly followed.
There was a corridor in front of the window on the 3rd floor, a large bedroom on the left and right, and a lounge area with a piano in the center. In order to avoid everyone getting separated again, Yue Xingwen simply beckoned his teammates to enter the room on the left together.
This was Daisy’s bedroom, which had a number of single photographs of her hanging on the walls, and a separate wardrobe full of long dresses of various colors. The four girls immediately went to the wardrobe, and the boys looked for clues in other areas.
Yue Xingwen rummaged through the nightstand and pulled out a file bag of the contract that Daisy had hired a private investigator to look into Rhodes, as well as some photographs that the detective had investigated. In the photo, Rhodes embraced a young and beautiful woman who had clear blue eyes, but it was not Leah.
Jiang Pingce pulled out a box in the nightstand on the other side, inside was a diamond necklace and inside the box was a greeting card that said ‘For my favorite girl, Daisy’, and the signed name was nor Rhodes. Jiang Pingce handed the box to everyone and said, “IT should be from Daisy’s first love.”
Yue Xingwen frowned. “This couple seems to be in the same bed and have different dreams. The man is raising a mistress outside, the woman is entangled with her first love, and she still keeps the gift from her first love?”
At this moment, Lin Manluo said, “Most of the wardrobe is Daisy’s dresses, and there are several sets of children’s clothes, but there is not a single male clothes. Doesn’t Rhodes live here?”
Yue Xingwen was stunned, carefully measured this room, suddenly, his eyes lit up and said, “This villa is not the residence of Daisy and Rhodes, but her mother’s home—— The residence of Mr. and Mrs. Roland!”
Jiang Pingce said, “That’s right. We saw Daisy planting sunflowers in the garden with her child and took it for granted that this was her residence, but in fact, Daisy took the child back to her parents’ house.”
Yue Xingwen looked back at Jiang Pingce and said, “So, the other room is likely to be Alice’s room?”
Jiang Pingce said, “After searching this room, just go over there and take a look.”
Everyone rummaged through Daisy’s room from beginning to end, and found no more clues, so they turned and went to the room on the right. Sure enough, there was a picture frame on the table in this room, and the girl in it was none other than Alice.
The drawer was locked, Liu Zhaoqing directly used his chainsaw to open it, and found that there was a diary inside. Ke Shaobin opened the diary curiously and said, “This is the diary written by Alice in middle school!”
Liu Zhaoqing said, “She didn’t take this diary with her when she married Jack, probably because the diary recorded quite a few of her secrets, and she was afraid that her husband would find out.”
Yue Xingwen took the diary and looked at it carefully.
Alice complained a lot about her sister in her diary: “Daisy doesn’t look like me at all, and she actually bought the same limited clothes with me, and collided with me at my graduation party. She must have done it on purpose!”
“Today is her wedding, she married Rhodes, the eldest son of the Brown family. I really don’t know how Rhodes would take a fancy to her…”
The diary was full of mockery, showing the darkness inside the heart of the seemingly sweet girl.
In addition, she also recorded the senior she liked for the first time in high school, and the diary was full of praises for this senior, from the praise of facial features to talent and emotional intelligence, in her eyes, the senior was simply the perfect prince.
The exchange of groups with Leah at the summer camp was also recorded, and she finally commented: “Proud person like Leah is so annoying.”
Ke Shaobin supported his forehead helplessly. “No matter what, Leh was considered to have helped her at that time, right? She didn’t thank her, but still complained in her diary. This girl’s psychology is really dark. She praises all kinds of handsome boys, and it seems like it’s wrong to even breathe when other girls are slightly prettier?”
Liu Zhaoqing said, “It may be that she was spoiled by her parents since she was a child. Her princess syndrome is too serious, thinking that she is the best, and all other girls should step aside, including her sister.”
On the last page of her diary, she recorded her feelings before marriage, including a sentence: “I know that Jack is a playboy and had a very messy private life. But it doesn’t matter, marrying into their family as a wealthy wife, as long as there is enough money to spend, even if he brings his mistress to me, I don’t bother to care about him.”
Lin Manluo was amazed. “These three views are simple, I think she is quite like a murderer who kills people for money.”
Lan Yarong lowered her head and seriously considered for a moment, and said, “The brothers, Rhodes and Jack are the rich 2nd generation, how the Roland family’s money is distributed has nothing to do with the two of them. Their motives for the crime are not very sufficient, so the murderer is just one of two choices among the two sisters?”
Jiang Pingce said calmly, “Not necessarily. Don’t forget that Leah was buried in a rose garden, which was originally planted with sunflowers, which Daisy planted with her son and later changed to black roses, which I think is no coincidence.”
Qin Miao said, “The flower language of the black rose ‘You are a demon and you are mine’, the desire for monopoly is very strong. It’s a flower in itself to express love, if the murderers are Daisy and Alice, these two girls couldn’t be secretly in love with Leah, right?”
Ke Shaobin nodded thoughtfully. “It seems that these two sisters don’t look like lily.”
Xin Yan was puzzled. “Lily? What does it have to do with roses?”
Ke Shaobin coughed lightly and said, “You don’t even know this? Lily means girl likes girl.”
Xin Yan was expressionless and said, “You’re the one who knows too much.”
Ke Shaobin looked around innocently and found that Xingwen also looked confused and didn’t seem to know the meaning of lily.
Qin Lu said, “In other words, Daisy and Alice don’t look like lesbian from the way they behave, and it’s impossible for them to have a crush on Leah, so it’s still possible that Leah’s murderer is among the two brothers, Rhodes and Jack? Then wouldn’t it be wrong again to reason just now about killing for the sake of inheritance?”
Yue Xingwen suddenly asked, “Must the murderer of the Roland couple and the murderer who killed Leah be the same?”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
Jiang Pingce quickly followed Xingwen’s train of thought. “When we found the three corpses, the bodies were indeed buried together, so we took it for granted that it was a serial murder case, and that the murderer killed three people in one go. But don’t forget that the bodies we found have all decomposed, leaving only the white bones, and it’s impossible to judge the exact time and cause of death.”
Yue Xingwen said, “This case may have to be split into two lines of analysis. The death of Mr. and Mrs. Roland may have been done by the sisters, Daisy and Alice, and knowing that their parents want to leave the inheritance to Leah, they may also have murderous intentions against their parents? Leah’s death was related to the brothers, Jack and Rhodes, burying her in the Black Rose Garden to express paranoid and perverted love?”
Everyone looked at each other, and their minds were enlightened.
The three corpses were put together, but the murderer was most likely not the same.
Ty for the chapter:> hopefully they find the cat still alive or at least the recorder
