A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 420 An unexpected call
"Oh? What kind of shell surprises you so much?"

Thinking that the cockles and oysters he had harvested were not good-looking, Lyon was quite curious about Sophia's extra harvest.

When Sophia held two long, cylindrical shells in her hands, and saw the mixed luster of various wonderful colors emitted from their surfaces under the reflection of sunlight, Leon couldn't help but complain.

"Rainbow Shell? Why is it here? Isn't it refreshed in summer?"

"Do you know this kind of shell? What is summer refresh?" Sophia asked while showing the shell in front of Leon.

"Nothing, I mean this kind of shell should only appear in summer." Lyon said perfunctorily, then took one of the shells and held it in his hand.

"Rainbow Shell: It's a very beautiful shell."

"It's indeed a rainbow shell." Looking at the big shell in his hand, Leon didn't know what to say. After all, rainbow shells are quite rare in the game, and they are only refreshed on the beach in summer.

In addition to being a gift, the rainbow shell itself only serves the purpose of completing Mr. Qi's challenge.

And now Lyon is carrying out Mr. Qi's challenge mission and has completed the dragon's last meal.

Although we know how to complete the remaining three-ring missions, including the battery in the tunnel, the rainbow shells in the box at the train station, and the beet mission in the mayor's refrigerator, we only have a clue about the items needed for these missions, except for the battery pack. After all, there is a lightning rod given by the vault sacrifice on the farm, which can be obtained as long as there is thunder in the summer.

Now that he has unexpectedly harvested rainbow shells in the spring, the foundation for another round of the task has been laid. As long as he harvests ten beets in the autumn, Lyon can get a membership card of Mr. Qi's Club and meet this mysterious boss.

"Are you really giving it to me?" Looking at the rainbow shell in his hand, Leon confirmed to Sophia.

"Well, I'll give it to you. There are two anyway, one for each of us." Sophia nodded in confirmation, then ran away and continued to look for these beautiful little gadgets.

Looking at Sophia's departing back, Leon felt relieved. He could clearly feel that Sophia's mood had turned positive and optimistic, which was a good thing. The previous worry about Sophia was also eliminated. Even if Leon and Sophia were to part now, the tragedy he had anticipated would not happen.

Thinking of that inexplicable perception, Lyon now had some idea.

He thought it might be related to his transformed forest magic. Although on the surface he had evolved into a succubus aura specifically for natural creatures, in fact it was more like a fit and resonance with natural creatures, and humans were also natural creatures.

Once, Lyon learned about the peculiarity of forest magic, which made him very happy. It also made him certain that forest magic was far from as simple as he thought. There should be more secrets waiting for him to discover under this special magic or talent.

Leon temporarily put aside his research on forest magic and prepared to continue sweeping the tidal pool, but at this moment he heard the classic ringtone of his cell phone.

Leon took out his cell phone from his pocket, looked at the strange number without a name on the caller ID, and subconsciously thought it was a harassing call, so he hung up. This was Leon's habit of using a cell phone.

After all, when I was on Earth, I received all kinds of unremarked calls every day, either sales or scams. As long as the callers were not acquaintances, most people would basically hang up.

But to Leon's surprise, just a few seconds after he hung up the phone, the ringtone rang again. He looked at the caller ID and saw it was still the same number, which made Leon realize that something was wrong.

So Leon pressed the answer button and heard a resentful female voice on the other end of the phone. Leon was very familiar with the voice, it was Abigail's.

“Leon! I called you the first time I got the phone, and you actually hung up on me!” “Ahem, I didn’t know it was your number. I thought it was a harassing call from a stranger. Sorry.”

Leon quickly gave in. He could already imagine the scene where Abigail excitedly called him and her expectation instantly changed because of his action of hanging up the phone. If he didn't admit his mistake, he was afraid that he would be in trouble when Abigail came back.

"How could a stranger know your phone number? Tell me, are you hiding something shameful and that's why you don't dare to answer the phone?!" Abigail said angrily.

"No, I'm picking sea urchins on the beach. It's a serious foraging activity. What's so shameful about it?" Leon answered righteously, and did not hesitate to conceal the fact that he came here with Sophia.

"How could there be sea urchins on the beach? Who are you kidding?" Abigail became even more angry when she heard this. If Leon said he was picking clams or clams, she would absolutely trust him 100%, but Leon actually said he was picking sea urchins. This was nonsense.

After all, Abigail had been to the beach before, and she was a local. How could she not know what would be washed up on the beach by the waves?

"I'm not lying to you. I'm really picking sea urchins in the tidal pool. After I hang up, I'll take a picture and send it to you via text message, then you'll know I'm not lying." Lyon felt so wronged when he heard that. No one believed him when he told the truth. Can't people in this world have more trust in each other?

"Tide pool? You mean the place on the other side of the beach? If that's where it is, then it makes sense why you could find sea urchins, but you still have to take a picture for me." Abigail's tone softened a lot after hearing this, but she still didn't completely believe what Leon said.

"Yes, yes, by the way, how did you feel about the exam? When will you be back? Do you want to come to the farm for dinner tonight?" Leon did not forget to ask Abigail about her monthly exam today. After all, it is always good to care about your girlfriend.

"It's not bad. After all, I study at home, and the exam content is basically some common problems in business operations. The things my dad tells me every day are already standard answers. It's easy to get a high score, and it's almost impossible to fail.

As for when I'll be back, I guess I'll have to wait until the evening. It's a rare trip to Zuzu City, and Mom and Dad are still shopping. I used being tired as an excuse to call you from the mall lounge. I have to continue shopping with them later. But I will definitely come to the farm to find you in the evening. I have a surprise prepared for you.

Abigail reminded Leon mysteriously.

"I've also prepared a surprise for you. I'll be waiting for you. By the way, what do you want to eat tonight? I can prepare it in advance."

Leon was also looking forward to the surprise Abigail mentioned, and asked Abigail about her expectations for dinner.

"No need to prepare anything special. I like everything you cook. That's it. They're back, and it's time for me to hang up." Abigail spoke faster.

"Yeah, I love you." Leon nodded and added this farewell greeting, but as soon as the word "I love you" came out, Abigail shouted excitedly.

"Oh, what are you talking about? How can it be so corny? I, I, forget it, let's talk about it when we get back."

After that, Leon heard a busy tone from the other end of the phone, which meant that Abigail had hung up the phone on her own initiative.

"I didn't expect this girl to be so innocent. She was at a loss for words with such a simple love story. If she were to use the offensive power of the Masahiro Fujiya, this girl would probably crash."

After taking back his phone, Leon thought about Abigail's panicked words just now, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth into a very dangerous arc.

　Thank you to boss tisstctd for the reward of 500 Qidian coins. We are new friends and new bosses. I like you. I wish you great fortune. I love you!
