I have three indexes, all three of them share a particular key-value pair. When I do a blanket search with the api "[http://localhost:9200/\_search](http://localhost:9200/_search)" using the request body

```auto
{"query":{
	"query_string":
	{
		"query":"city*"
		
		}
	}
}

```

It is only returning results from two of the indexes. I tried using the same request body by altering the url to search only in that missed index and that's working. Am I missing anything here?

The code for inserting all three indexes follow the same procedure.
