If your main breaker disconnects those outlets, they aren't drawing power directly from anything but your panel.
Yeah, except for one of them, it literally isn't drawing power from my panel.
I put a 1000W test load on it and my meter showed no deviation of the load what so ever.
On the other outlet and every other outlet in the apartment, it does.
And as I already said/acknowledged, the only way that can happen is if there's a relay or similar switching method being driven by my power that switches power coming from somewhere else.
