了 in this type of question is sometimes represented by other characters with similar pronunciations, such as 咯 (lo) or 啰 (lo). Such a question is used to make inferences about a situation; therefore, an optional 那/那么 (nà/nàme: ‘in that case’) is frequently used.
李：那个女孩跟你很像，她是谁？
Lǐ：Nà gè nǚ hái gēn nǐ hěn xiàng，tā shì shuí ？
Li: That girl looks very much like you. Who is she?
王：我跟她同姓，可是她不是我姐姐。
Wáng：Wǒ gēn tā tóng xìng，kě shì tā bú shì wǒ jiě jiě 。
Wang: We have the same last name, but she is not my older sister.
李：那她是你妹妹了/咯/啰？
Lǐ：Nà tā shì nǐ mèi mèi le/lo/lo ？
Li: Then (in that case) she must be your younger sister, isn’t she?
