Hearing this, Filex snorted indifferently and interrupted, "Fine, then I won't talk about this anymore. However, I have a question I want to ask Fade."

"Do you know Liza from Jopeno? Both of you met in Capital City a few months ago and you guys have quite a close relationship right?" Filex stared at him.

Fade squinted his eyes and he stared at Filex for a moment before replying, "Indeed, I know Liza. She's a friend of mine."

"Captain Zhao, does this conclude anything? Mr. Chen just has a Jopeno friend and is this sufficient evidence to suspect him as a spy?" Cindy asked in confusion.

However, Filex snorted and said, "It's no big deal if she's just an ordinary Jopeno resident, but the problem is that Liza is the current chairman of the Hachi Clan. Now, do you still think that this isn't fishy?" After hearing the words, Cindy's expression also couldn't help but change drastically.

Eilert also stared at Fade with a serious face and said, "Mr. Chen, this matter..."

Fade understood what they meant and said, "Liza is indeed the chairman of the Hachi Clan but now, the clan is more complicated than you think. The previous chairman of the Hachi Clan, Gunshiken, had passed away and now, the clan is divided into two parts.."

Then, he told them about the Hachi Clan's division.

After hearing this, Eilert's and Cindy's faces were slightly relieved, but they still looked solemn.

Filex uttered indifferently, "Even if the Hachi Clan is divided into two parts. You can't deny the fact that you are friends with the chairman of the Hachi Clan."

After that, he glanced at Eilert and said, "Eilert, you are part of the inspection team. You are also responsible for the supervision of our team."

"Under such a circumstance I don't think that Fade is appropriate for the task and he must return to the country immediately. We must investigate him."

Hearing this, Fade's eyes sank and he said in a low voice, "The reason why I joined this is because Mr. Xu asked me to do so personally. You don't have what it takes to drive me back."

When Mr. Xu's name was brought up, Filex and Eilert were dumbfounded. They did not expect that

Fade had been asked to come over by such a big shot.

However, Filex was still determined. "Regardless, for the sake of our operation, I think it is best for him to leave our operation."

"I agree with Captain Zhao!" Filex's right-hand man immediately raised his hand in agreement.

Then, Filex glanced at Eilert and Cindy.

Cindy glanced at Fade. She stepped forward and stood beside him, showing that she was on Fade's side.

"Eilert, is everything up to you?" Filex glanced at him, and waited for his decision.

Eilert looked at Filex and then at Fade. He looked embarrassed. It seemed like he was in a dilemma.

However, at this time, Fade took the initiative to stand up and he said, "Don't be embarrassed. Since Captain Zhao suspects me, it's meaningless for me to stay here. You all don't need to drive me away. I'm going to leave by myself."

After that, he was about to turn around and leave.

Filex saw this and immediately said, "You can't go. Who knows if he will go out and spread our intelligence with the enemy. We have to monitor him as he returns back to the country and is investigated."

"This..." Eilert seemed to think that Filex's words made sense.

Concurrently, Fade turned around and his gaze was livid. He stared straight at Filex and said in a deep voice, "Filex, I don't care if you really suspect me or if you have other motives. I really don't mind that." "However, if you want to fight me, you can give it a try now." After he said this, his positive energy surged out and it oppressed the entire room, suffocating all of them.

Under such pressure, Filex and the others did not dare to speak immediately.

Then, Fade turned around and left. His figure disappeared into the darkness and he left.

When the room was finally silent and Fade had already been long gone, only then did they come back to their senses.

Cindy was somewhat dissatisfied and said to Filex, "Captain Zhao, Mr. Chen is our companion. How can you do this to him?"

Filex said, "I'm the captain. I'm responsible for the safety of this operation."

"Also, Fade has left by himself and no one knows where he is now. This shows that my suspicion just now is even more likely."

Hearing this, she frowned and said, "No, Mr. Chen was angered and left. He is not a spy. Moreover, he was the one chosen by Mr. Xu. Mr. Xu would not make a mistake."

Hearing this, Eilert's expression changed.

Filex narrowed his eyes and said in a hurry, "I'm not questioning Mr. Xu's action. It's just that Mr. Xu is busy with his work. I'm afraid that he won't pay much attention to this kind of thing. I'm worried that Fade may have deceived him and his subordinates and thus he got this opportunity."

"But..." Cindy still wanted to defend Fade.

However, at this time, Eilert stopped her and said, "Cindy, that's enough. Anyway, it has already happened. We have to report it back to the country. Later I'll send in a report to them."

Filex also said, "Thank you for your hard work, Eilert. It's getting late. Let's go back and have a rest. We still have no clues up until now."

On the other hand, Fade left the hotel and the chilly night breeze flew across his face. He finally calmed down.

It was actually reasonable for Filex to suspect him, but Fade knew that he was not a spy.

Despite this, Filex's words were really persuasive and all of them might actually suspect that Fade was a spy.

For example, the five of them were ambushed at Genkiro's tea garden, and this was completely a surprise for him too.

After getting the clue from Malachi, they had already killed him. There was no possible way for him to leak out the information.

Later, they went back to the hotel and told their clue to their teammates. Between this and the time for preparation, it only took no more than an hour.

When they arrived at the tea garden, it could be explained that they were unlucky and Genkiro was not home.

However, it did not make sense that the manor was so heavily armed and there was even a sniper hidden in the mountains. Fade was nearly injured in the process.

Even if Genkiro was tight with his security, it was ridiculous if this was how his usual defenses were.

One had to know that he was the chief of the Hachi Clan of the Osko Branch. He was the strongest figure in the entire Osko City and he was also at the peak stage of the Earth Level.
