Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 934

Harper was worried about Felton's condition but unfortunately she and Matthew couldn't get any news about him—how he was
or even where he was. It was like he vanished from the face of the earth, just like the rest of the Qin Clan.
The members of the Qin Clan used to contact her through Felton. She wasn't even sure if they really existed, so the only thing
she could do at the moment was go to Phoenix City, the known base of the clan, and search there.
Phoenix City was its usual busy, beautiful, and peaceful self when Harper and Matthew arrived. It was not Matthew's first time
visiting the city, but he still felt a renewed awe when he stepped foot on its land once again.
After the couple checked in at a hotel, they immediately went ahead and looked for the base of the Qin Clan. Standing at the
gates of the closed orphanage, Harper donned a very complicated expression on her face. 'Why is this closed? Is there anything
wrong with the clan? Where are the children?' she thought.
"Little Harper!" A female voice suddenly rang out. The person put her arm around Harper's neck as soon as she was near her
and said, "Why are you like this? How dare you not inform me that you're back here in Phoenix City!"
"Daphne!" Harper tried to shake Daphne off her but she failed. "Daphne, you're strangling me. I'm already out of breath! Please
let me go!"
Daphne relented but it seemed to be because she saw Matthew next to her. "Who is this man? Is this your man? Doesn't seem
so good looking, why?"
Matthew's eyes rolled slightly. His sleeve brushed against Daphne's wrist, and the latter suddenly felt her wrist becoming numb.
Harper noticed this immediately and was about to say something about it, but Matthew spoke first. "Why are you making friends
with such a slut? I don't want her filth contaminating you."
"Slut?" Daphne was ready to fight. "Who are you calling slut, boy?"
Harper couldn't help but face palm. How could she forge? The personality of these two were so alike that they would clash as
soon as they met. "Matthew, stop it. You know we've been friends for a long time now. Why do you two always argue when you
meet each other?"
"It's because of him!"
"It's because of her!"

Matthew and Daphne replied at the same time, both turning away from each other and unwilling to look at each other's faces.
Harper was helpless. Felton had disappeared and the Qin Clan's base was closed, but the two were bickering like little children.
"Anyway, Daphne, do you know why the orphanage is closed? Where are the people?" In Phoenix City, if anyone wanted to
know what happened, the best people to ask were Daphne and Darren.
Daphne glanced at the closed gates of the orphanage, her face unreadable. "Immediately after I learned that you'd come here, I

knew this would be the first place you visit. Well, three days ago, the people in the orphanage just vanished. No sign of where
they went or what happened to them. Disappeared, just like that."
"What? How is that possible?" Harper asked, shocked. This was Phoenix City—one of the most populous city in the world—how
could that happen?
"I've ordered my people to search for them far and wide, but after three days, we still haven't had any leads, clues, whatever.
Everyone just... vanished out of thin air I want to have answers for you, but I just do not right now. I am so sorry," Daphne said,
sounding sad and apologetic.

terrible the enemies are, it's impossible that they haven't left any trace," Harper whispered. The orphanage was very clean, as if someone had been there. Seeing the tidy floor, Harper looked at Daphne and asked, "Have you sent someone to clean it?" "No. When we found that the orphanage wasn't opened, we sent people over to check and found that it was very clean. Even at that time, the hot water was still boiling on the furnace, as if the people here had suddenly disappeared from the world." Daphne was very concerned about this issue. It was not a small matter that the children in the orphanage were missing from Phoenix City, not to mention that Harper had a special feeling for the children here. "My brother has been investigating this matter in these days. We originally wanted to send message to you, but we got news that you arrived." After being silent for a moment, Harper said, "Thank you." "I'm sorry, Harper. Those kids were gone under our watch..." "It's not your

where the Qin Clan is hiding." Harper didn't mind exposing the Qin Clan's traces now. They had been hiding for twenty years, and now Felton and the people of the Qin Clan's base in Phoenix City had disappeared for no reason. She was afraid that something really happened to the clan, so she must take action. "Okay, I'll have someone look into it. You... Where are you staying? How about staying in the lord's mansion?" Daphne asked tentatively. "We are now staying in the Joy Inn. If you have anything urgent, just ask someone to come to the hotel to look for

Harper just stubbornly looked at Daphne. Daphne shrugged helplessly and said, "Okay, it's up to you. If there is any news, I will
go to the Joy Inn to see you."
"Okay." Harper stared at Daphne's back as she left, full of worry in her eyes. What happened to Felton and the orphanage was
so strange. They disappeared at the same time without any trace of fighting. Especially the people in the orphanage seemed
determined to leave all of a sudden, in a hurry and rash state.
After they returned to the inn, Matthew closed the door. He looked at Harper and said, "The Qin Clan left willingly."
Harper nodded. "It should be. Otherwise, no one can make a move in Phoenix City and take all the people away from the
orphanage without disturbing the people in the lord's mansion. But I don't understand why the Qin Clan retreated at this time."
"Maybe we'll know the answer when we find Felton." Matthew had a guess on his mind, but he didn't want to tell it, which would
make Harper sad.
"Knock, knock, knock." There was a knock at the door.
"Who is it?"
"Sir, I am a waiter. I have brought some food here." The waiter's voice came from outside the door.
Matthew walked to the door, opened it, took the food, closed the door, and put down the food. He looked out of the window and
said, "Since you're here, don't hide."

you gave me the Fantasy and poisoned me." Without feeling embarrassed after being debunked, Francis replied, "I just wanted to see if you would take Rolando as Uncle Matthew when you were poisoned by the Fantasy." Matthew's eyes narrowed ferociously, as if he wanted to take action. Francis
