The main focus is a bridge, the one who hired them initially lied about the mission's difficulty much like Tazuna from part 1 Naruto did. Konohamaru will end up dealing with the tough shinobi, like Kakashi did with Zabuza. Yea, but it's also very different. For one, it's obvious that the other villages don't like one village having so much control. And of course a village isn't going to divulge all it's secrets to a foreign police squad. The guy from the Naruto bridge lied because of money. This girl lied because she clearly doesn't want to inspire others.

If Konohameru walked in and oneshot everyone, then the genin learn nothing. Note how, when surrounded by villagers, he had already assessed the situation as safe enough to let the Genin come up with a plan?
