I think you are accessing same solr index using both embedded server and http. The changes that you made using embedded server won't be reflected to http until a commit issued from http. I mean if you hit this url: http://localhost:8983/solr/update?commit=true the deleted documents won't be retrieved anymore. P.s. if you want to expunge deleted docs completely you can either optimize or commit with expungeDeletes = "true".
