At this moment, Violet shrugged casually, looked helplessly at him and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Mayor, the city gate is broken, and this is not a safe place."
After saying this, she looked around, her face bearing a look of terror as if she had discovered something horrifying.
"What should I do in case a group of monsters suddenly jump out while opening the door?" she asked in a most careful and fragile tone that she could muster.
It was as if she was afraid that if she raised her voice, it would really attract the non-existent monsters hiding in the jungle.
Moreover, the people present had no idea of what exactly lurked within the surrounding forest.
Upon hearing his request being refused, the face of the mayor turned rather gloomy.
Why couldn't this woman, in front of him, act in the same compliant manner like everyone else following his orders?
