The atmosphere at the scene was a little solemn for a while.
Previously, everyone thought that whether it was bright gold or light gold, it was at least golden, and at most it was just a difference due to individual differences. But now that the blood factor theory has been proposed, this subtle difference cannot be ignored.
"I initially verified it with a pure golden color, but soon realized something was wrong until I was reminded that in a litter of kittens, there are not only individuals similar to their parents."
Reiner glanced at Fina as he spoke, making the student purse his lips and smile.
"I make a bold guess that bright blond hair and light blond hair are caused by different blood factors. With the support of this conjecture, I made a table like this."
A table was drawn on the white wall, in which the members of the Albiore family were divided into three types: bright blond hair, light blond hair, and red hair. It can be seen that except for the nine people who died in infancy and cannot be confirmed, the remaining Of the seventy-six, there were five with red hair, fifty-seven with light blond hair, and fourteen with bright blond hair.
Among them, William with bright blond hair, and his two wives.
George, Lady Martha, Edward and his two sisters all had light blond hair.
Emilia has red hair.
"Based on the phenomenon, I made a hypothesis, that is, there are three main blood factors that control hair color. Among them, since light blond hair occupies the majority, I assumed that it is the dominant factor and is designated as A, while bright blond hair, Because the number is smaller, it is designated as a, and as for red hair, it is designated as i. It can be considered as a variation of bright blond hair, passed down due to the tradition of intermarriage in the Albiore family."
Reiner said that his explanation was easy to understand, and because of this, many pure-blood mages have already started making calculations in their minds.
"Since one pair of chromosomes can only carry one pair of blood factors, there are many combinations of these three blood factors. You can see that there are more bright blond hair than red hair. Therefore, I think the blood factors of the two The combined AI type should also show bright blond hair.”
After some simple calculations, Reiner quickly announced the answer.
According to his deduction, the ratio of light blond hair with dominant bloodline factors to relatively recessive bright blond and red hair is fifty-seven to nineteen, close to three to one.
Meanwhile, the ratio of bright blonde hair to red hair is fourteen to five, which is also close to three to one!
"Based on the ratio of blood factor combinations for these three hair colors, the final trait contrast should be 12:3:1, and the current distribution of family members among these three hair colors is 57:14:5, which is consistent with theory The proportions are similar, which confirms my suspicion.”
Reiner concluded that at this time, the pure-blood mages with slightly faster brains also calculated the same result. In their own minds, the genetic law was verified.
"Wait a minute, if you say so, the light golden color is the dominant blood factor, then..."
Someone quickly realized the problem and looked at William.
William has bright blond hair. If Alymiya is indeed William's biological daughter, then it can be speculated that William's blood factor type is AI and Mrs. Martha is AI.
As for William's two wives, they may be aa or ai.
As for Edward, his two sisters have light blond hair, which means that they all have A blood factor, which may be AA, Aa and Ai.
So the question is, neither William nor his wife has the blood factor of A. So where did the light blond hair blood factor of Edward and his two sisters come from
From the perspective of genetic theory, Emilia may be William's biological daughter, but Edward and his two sisters, Isis and Margaret, are definitely not the biological children of William and his two wives. children.
Realizing this, some people turned their heads and looked at another member of the Albiore family who was standing silently on one side.
George Albiore, William's younger brother, is a fifth-level intermediate mage. He is responsible for handling various affairs in the family. He is smart and capable and deeply trusted by William.
Also, is light blonde hair.
The entire banquet hall suddenly became silent, and you could hear a pin drop.
After a long time, William looked at his brother and asked in a hoarse voice.
"George?"
The person involved, George, was silent for a moment before showing a bitter smile.
"I'm sorry, brother."
His words proved everything. In just a moment, William glanced around the banquet hall and saw his two wives, one beside Edward and the other standing confused not far away.
He saw his son Edward. Although his character still needed to be polished, his magic skills were good and he could at least inherit the Albiore family's business.
He saw his daughter, Isis, biting her lower lip with an expression of disbelief.
Margaret is missing. The young daughter has recently become close to other members of the family, and William is preparing to talk to her.
All of this, everything that originally belonged to William, now, Reiner told William, these are not yours.
None of it is yours! ! !
In the entire family, the only ones who did not betray William were Mrs. Martha and Alymiya. However, he had been persecuting this mother and daughter for the past eighteen years. In the end, Mrs. Martha was tortured to death, and Alymiya almost Become Edward's slave.
"Why?"
William asked, but his voice had lost its original confidence.
"Because I'm better than you, brother."
George said calmly, but there was anger that had been suppressed for many years in his voice.
"I'm obviously better than you, whether it's magic or other aspects, but just because you are the eldest son, everything can only belong to you!"
As he spoke, his calm expression was in sharp contrast to his fierce words.
"Haha, I'm afraid you don't know that Anjie, Catherine, I, and I have done everything before you got married. Whenever you and your friends get drunk and don't come home, I am the one who comforts your two sisters!"
George said every word, making William's two wives lower their heads.
"Only Martha, she is the only family member who is loyal to you, but so what, haha, you killed her with your own hands and let your only daughter fall to this point."
George was so aggressive that William couldn't help but retreat.
"William Albiore, you took away what should have been mine, and everything you have now is entirely your own fault!!!"
This accusation silenced the entire banquet hall, and everyone's eyes were focused on William and George.
But the next moment, a scream came from an unexpected direction.
