Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Harper followed the Holy Maiden as they entered the Starry Palace. While they were walking, she was very impressed by the
place's layout. The Holy Maiden merely smiled in a nonchalant way, but she seemed to be more like a human being compared to
the last time when Harper saw her. She was walking with Harper side by side while she introduced the place using a soft voice.
Occasionally, she would tell some interesting stories about the South Kingdom. Harper found all of them very interesting.
"What is that place?" Harper asked out of the blue while she pointed to a building with a round roof located at the center of the
Starry Palace. It stood out to her because it seemed like the whole palace encircled it, as if the entire place had been built
around it. But what was strange about it was that it didn't have a door.
Upon hearing her question, the Holy Maiden changed her expression for a second. Then she said in a gentle voice, "It's the
library of the Starry Palace. A large number of the South Kingdom's precious books are carefully placed in there."
"Ah, I see. That's very impressive. But why doesn't it have a door? Without any door, how could people go inside? Is it through
the wall? If that was the case, then people would have a bleeding head every time they would go in." Harper asked some more
questions. She was very curious about it.

The Holy Maiden shook her head in response. "Unfortunately, you can't go inside. The library is the most sacred place in the
South Kingdom. Outsiders are not allowed to enter. If anyone forces themselves into the library, I'm afraid it will just backfire on

just curious. Don't worry. I won't force my way inside. Actually, I don't even think I'm capable of doing so. After all, how could I do it when there is no door?" The Holy Maiden grinned with one of her hands covering her mouth. After a few seconds, she then said, "I already told you, there is a door indeed. It's just that outsiders don't know where it is. Well, you're free to visit every corner and room inside the Starry Palace

to go forward, as if the library was just an inconspicuous place that she could forget at any time. Meanwhile, Matthew was casually following them from behind. He took a glance at the library with thoughts about the hidden door. To be more precise, it was more than just hidden—it was the most well-kept secret of the entire kingdom. Except for the Holy Maiden, no one could open the door and no one knew how to open it. That he had activated the mechanism to open the library earlier should be a mere coincidence. The Holy Maiden noticed from the corner of her eye that Matthew was looking at the library with very intense and careful eyes. She didn't react that much but simply smiled instead. She

come back and see you later," the Holy Maiden said. After that, she turned around and flew away elegantly. Harper turned her gaze from her receding figure to Matthew. "What do you think of it?" Harper asked with eagerness in her
