Sable's eyes gleamed. He glanced in the direction where the killer had been taken and stuttered, "I, I'm with them. I..."
"Tell me the truth!" Fade interrupted him directly and glared at him.
Sable suddenly felt chills down his spine. For a moment, he dared not lie and quickly answered, "I, I'm from the Ding family."
"The Ding family." Fade's eyes were scornful.
"Were you sent by Hensley?"
Sable nodded and admitted, "Yes. It was Hensley who sent me here."
"Hensley Ding!" Fade gritted his teeth and then shouted, "Why did Hensley send you?"
Sable paused for a moment and then continued, "He, he sent me to assist those killers. I had to make sure that they successfully assassinated Liza."
"Who are they?" Fade interrogated.
"I heard... I heard they are from Jopeno. Hensley contacted them personally. I don't know who they are," Sable replied truthfully.
Fade's face darkened. He could almost be sure that the three killers were sent by the Akao family of the Hachi Clan.
After a slight pause, he probed, "What other plans does Hensley have in mind?"
"This, this... I just heard that the Ding family's business is not looking good recently. So Hensley was enraged, and he wanted Liza dead, as it would affect the Fei Shipping Company's business."
Fade's face was gloomy. After he thought it through, he agreed that the Ding family had the motives to kill Liza.
Then, he asked, "Operation Rainstorm is still in effect. The Ding family is working together with a foreign underground organization. Aren't they afraid of the consequences?"
"Hensley has a good relationship with Caption Zhao, so..." Sable muttered.
There was no need to say more, and Fade could understand what was going on. Presumably, Domuel would turn a blind eye and let Hensley go.
On the other end, the result of Akira and Kenji's interrogation was as they expected. The three killers were sent by Taira.
Initially, the Akao family didn't plan on sending someone after Liza again. After all, they had just dealt with the assassin sent by the Akao family a few days ago, and now Operation Rainstorm was in effect.
However, just a few days ago, someone from the Ding family took the initiative to contact the Akao family concerning Liza's assassination. They assured that they would provide ample support and they wouldn't be affected by Operation Rainstorm.
After the Akao family had inspected and learned about it, they naturally would not let go of this great opportunity. Thus, they sent out killers again and cooperated with the Ding family to start another round of assassination.
Therefore, they had attempted to assassinate Liza at the airport.
After learning the cause and effect of the whole thing, Fade's expression was grave, and there was a wave of burning rage in his chest.
The Ding family provoked him, but he couldn't retaliate because Operation Rainstorm was in effect. He just defeated them in the business world. Yet now, when the Ding family was at a disadvantage, they did such a ruthless thing. They had hired a killer and even joined forces with other foreign organizations to assassinate Liza. Moreover, they even threatened someone he treasured.
Such behavior had already exceeded Fade's bottom line.
