A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 453: 'Invisible' Hint
"Good morning, Sophia."

There was only one girl with pink hair in Stardew Valley, so Leon naturally knew who this girl was.

"Good morning, Leon."

Sophia heard Leon's greeting before she even looked up, so she subconsciously hid the bag of medicine in her hand behind her back, and forced herself to cheer up and greet Leon.

"I have a treasure map and am on a journey to find it. Do you want to join me?"

Leon did not ask Sophia why she was here, or what the medicine in her hand was, but instead invited Sophia to join the treasure hunt team.

"what?"

Sophia was visibly stunned when she heard this, then she looked at Leon in surprise and asked, "Treasure map? Is this some kind of treasure hunting role-playing game?"

"No, it's a real treasure map." Leon said, and pulled Sophia to the big tree next to the clinic. After making sure that there was no one around, he took out Mr. Qi's treasure map.

Naturally, Sophia also cast her eyes over the treasure map as soon as it was taken out. After seeing what was on it clearly, she couldn't help but roll her eyes at Leon.

"Are you sure this is a treasure map? Not some kid's doodle found in a trash can?"

"Ahem, it is indeed a treasure map, but it's a little crude. And I can guarantee that the final treasure hiding place of this thing is definitely where the treasure is."

Lyon was quite happy that Sophia made the same complaint as he had before. After all, great minds think alike.

If this treasure map had not been created by Mr. Qi and one of the rewards from this big boss had not been redeemed, Leon would not have dared to believe that this thing was a treasure map.

Therefore, Leon still tried his best to build Sophia's confidence, believing that this treasure map could really find good things. It was also to distract Sophia's energy. After all, the girl's previous condition was not very good, and she had obviously fallen into negativity again.

"Really?" Sophia was still a little skeptical when she heard it.

“Really!” Leon patted his chest and assured: “Sister, trust me, I won’t lie.”

"Bah, I haven't acknowledged you yet." Hearing Leon mention the title of brother again, Sophia stuck out her tongue and made a face at Leon in disgust and complained.

"It's okay, you just need to believe that the treasure map is real." Leon shamelessly pretended nothing happened.

"But can we really find the treasure with only these crude lines that can't even be identified as paths or river courses? This is too difficult."

Seeing Leon like this, Sophia did not continue to embarrass Leon, but instead focused her attention on the treasure map again. However, the more she looked at the treasure map, the more confused Sophia became.

"Isn't there another hint?" Lyon said, pointing to the hint on the map.

"Ah? What hint? I didn't see it." Sophia looked at the blank space where Leon's finger was pointing in confusion, with a bewildered look on her face.

"Can't you see it?" Leon was stunned for a moment, then continued to point at the hint and asked Sophia.

"I can't see it. Are you sure it's there? All I see is a blank." Sophia shook her head to confirm.

"Wait." Leon waved his hand and then fell into deep thought.

At this moment, he wasn't sure if this message was visible only to him, or if it was blocked from Sophia. If it was the former, then it wouldn't matter. If it was the latter, then this information was crucial. However, before that, Leon had to experiment.

"Wait for me here for a while. I have some things to prepare. You don't need to wait too long. You can play with Da Huang here for a while. He's very well behaved. He's the new puppy I mentioned."

As Leon said this, he called over Dahuang, who was walking near the bicycle not far away.

After hearing Leon's call, Dahuang immediately ran over. When he saw Leon and Sophia beside him, he made a sighing expression, then showed enthusiasm as if he had accepted his fate, and started to act coquettishly towards Sophia while wagging his tail.

Sophia also noticed this little black and white meat ball and immediately felt fond of it. After all, girls have almost no resistance to this kind of furry little creature.
"Wow, it's Da Huang? So cute."

Sophia couldn't help but hold Dahuang in her arms. Seeing that Dahuang didn't resist but lay obediently in her arms, and licked her palm with its little pink tongue, Sophia was immediately amused and giggled.

"It's so itchy. This little guy is so good."

"You guys play first, I'm going to do something."

Seeing Sophia being easily conquered by Dahuang, Leon breathed a sigh of relief. With Dahuang's help, Sophia should be happy for a long time, so Leon didn't waste any time and turned around and went into the clinic.

Harvey was still nowhere to be seen in the clinic. Only Maru, wearing a nurse's uniform, was standing at the front desk.

"Hey, Leon, what's up?"

Lyon's opening of the door also made Maru perk up immediately. After seeing Lyon, he immediately smiled and asked.

"Do you believe me if I say I'm sick?" Leon joked.

"I don't believe it. Although I'm a nurse, I've seen the expressions of many patients when they come in, but no one's mental state is so good when they are sick." Maru replied with a smile.

"All kidding aside, I'm actually here to see you. I heard from Gunther, the librarian, that you borrowed that Stardew Valley geology atlas, right?"

Leon stopped joking and explained his purpose.

"It's indeed here with me. If you want to read it, I can give it to you, but you have to return the book to me later." Upon hearing this, Maru immediately understood what Leon meant and agreed with Leon's idea.

"Thank you in advance. Where is the book now? If it is at your house, I will go directly to your room and ask Robin to get it for me." Leon nodded to express his gratitude to Maru, and then asked.

"No, I'll keep it with me." Maru immediately bent down, opened the drawer at the front desk, and took out the Stardew Valley Geology Atlas that she had borrowed.

"Well, after all, the clinic isn't very busy. It's nice to read a book occasionally when I have nothing to do. Harvey won't be dissatisfied with my behavior."

Seeing Leon's surprised expression, Maru explained with a blush.

"It's okay, I understand." Leon said with a smile, and took the book handed to him by Maru. Then Leon took out the treasure map and placed it in front of Maru, pointing to the location of the clue and asked.

"Can you see this?"

"This is the memory of the girl's nightmare? Is that the sentence?"
