Just then, Sean's phone on the desk buzzed suddenly. He picked up his phone, looked at it, and smiled.
"It's Quentin..."
Zander said immediately, "Perhaps the mayor wanted to ask you about the slum. Ms. Lewis must have told him
what happened today after she got home."
"Yeah, that should be it..."
As soon as Sean got through, Quentin's voice came from the phone.
"Commander Lennon, I'm sorry for calling you so late," Quentin said apologetically.
"It's okay. I haven't gone to bed yet," Sean replied calmly.

army. You control everything in the city defense army. And I'm the mayor of Dorodo, so the slum's problem is
supposed to be under my..."
"But you didn't, did you?"
Sean's remark left Mayor Quentin over the line silent for several seconds.
After a while, Mayor Quentin smiled wryly and said, "It seems you care about Dorodo's slum problem, Commander
Lennon."
"Of course..." Sean nodded and admitted without hesitation.
He went on and said, "Although I'm the commander-in-chief of the city defense army and not the mayor, the slum's
problem isn't my responsibility. But I don't think it's entirely irrelevant to me because if poverty isn't handled
properly, it can affect the stability of Dorodo's city defense army..."
"Mayor Lewis, you've been too busy to manage the slum. I'll take over, of course."
Quentin smiled wryly on the phone when Sean said this.
After a long while, he asked tentatively, "So what are you going to do, Commander Lennon?"
"The solution to this problem is simple. I'll start with two aspects. Firstly, strengthen the slum's economic
construction by providing them with more and better job opportunities so that they can create wealth and improve
their quality of life through labor... I'm not going to talk about the second one just yet."
"You're not?" Quentin frowned.
Quentin would never have been this easygoing if he was the previous commander-in-chief of the city defense army
or when Sean first arrived.

However, having seen what Sean was capable of and Sean's forceful method during this time, even a mayor like
him could not be tough in front of Sean.
After all, Sean wielded a lot more power than his predecessors as the city defense army's commander-in-chief.
It was mainly reflected in the commander-in-chief's control over the city defense army and the city defense army's
overall strength.
The previous commander-in-chiefs of the city defense army could not control Dorodo's city defense army. Dorodo's
city defense army was divided into several factions that were friendly on the surface but hostile in private.
Sean was truly the commander-in-chief of the city defense army as he had Dorodo's city defense army of 3,000
men under control.
His word was the most important order in the city defense army. Everything he said was the supreme order. No one
dared to disobey.
Besides, during the reign of the former commander-in-chiefs of the city defense army, the combat effectiveness of
Dorodo's city defense army was nothing worth mentioning. Even if one could not describe it as useless, it was pretty
weak.
