Chinese Bible seach Bug

I think the search algorithm for Chinese is somehow not correct. In Mark.4:12-13, there are TWO strings "不明白" (see below), but logos6 can only find ONE. Nether inline search nor general search can give correct result. 

Also, I try to separate "不明白" to "不" and "明白". However, the result is still the same and not correct. I hope this only affects Chinese search. Otherwise search in logos is not reliable.

Mark.4:12-13 12 叫他們 看是看見，卻不曉得； 聽是聽見，卻不明白； 恐怕他們回轉過來，就得赦免。」 13 又對他們說：「你們不明白這比喻嗎？這樣怎能明白一切的比喻呢？

    What version are you using?  

    I tried The Holy Bible: Chinese Union Version with New Punctuation (Shen Edition). Simplified Script

    Inline search finds it both Mk 4:12 and 13.

    Regular Basic search finds it as well...returns Mk 4:12 but includes 11-14.  There is no separate entry for vv13.  Odd.I get the same result in my PB (personal book) versions.

    Regular Bible Search finds it in 12 and 13 just fine.

    Thanks for your reply.

    You are right. I tried what you did. Search result for simplified CUV Bible is correct. But with traditional CUV, it is still wrong. My logos is version 6 and updates regularly. It should be the latest one.
