A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 465 What are you hiding?
However, as the saying goes, there is always a way when you reach the mountain. Even if there is no road, Lyon can build a bridge, and Lyon has already found the foundation of this bridge.

"It's decided to be you, Da Huang!"

Lyon returned to the farm and saw Da Huang glaring at a frog in a small pond beside the fence outside the chicken coop. He grabbed the frog and grabbed it in his arms, then got back on his bike and headed straight for Liuxiang No. 2.

Although Da Huang didn't know why Leon suddenly took him out, when he noticed that the path Leon took was so familiar, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

Feeling Da Huang's restless dog paws scratching his chest, Leon realized that Da Huang must have guessed something.

"Well, I have something to do and I need the help of the golden-haired girl among the sisters who took care of you last time. But I made her angry. Now the only person who can calm her down and get her to help me is, no, a dog, that's you, Da Huang. For my sake, please put up with it for a while."

Lyon stroked Dahuang's head with one hand and explained to Dahuang softly.

"Ouch!"

With an extremely sad and resolute howl, Dahuang calmed down and seemed to have made up his mind to sacrifice his looks for his master.

"I'm glad you understand. After all, food isn't free. Red Star Farm doesn't keep idle people or animals."

Patting Dahuang's head again, Leon gave Dahuang some instructions, then parked the car outside Villa No. 2 in Liuxiang and knocked on the door gently.

After knocking for a while, Leon didn't see anyone knocking on the door. He thought Haley was not at home, so he was about to take out his cell phone to ask Haley what was going on. As a result, the door was opened at this time, and Haley walked out with a blank expression.

"What are you here for?"

"I want to find out something from you." Leon replied with a smile.

But the saying "don't hit someone who smiles at you" didn't seem to work for Haley, a foreign girl. She just snorted coldly and planned to close the door, pretending that she didn't see Leon's visit.

Fortunately, at this time, Dahuang barked at the right time, attracting Haley's attention. At this moment, Haley saw that Dahuang was actually staying quietly in Leon's arms.

"come in."

Looking at the furry dog, Haley bit her lip lightly, and finally, for the sake of dog, she made way for the door.

Leon hurried in, changed his shoes quickly, and sat down on the sofa in the living room with Dahuang.

After closing the door, Haley sat on the other side of the sofa, her eyes all on Dawang on Leon's legs. Leon was very tactful and put Dawang on the ground and patted his butt. Dawang immediately ran towards Haley with his tongue out and a silly look on his face.

When Haley saw Dawang coming, she immediately reached out and picked him up. She felt the tingling sensation brought by Dawang's little tongue licking her wrist, and her mood immediately improved a lot.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

With Dahuang's comfort, Haley no longer cares about what happened before with Leon.

"Does this painting impress you?"

Leon didn't hesitate. He took out the graffiti, put it on the coffee table, and pushed it in front of Haley.

"It's so ugly." Haley only took a glance at the graffiti and showed her disgust without any hesitation.

But just after she had disapproved of the perfection, Haley couldn't help but take another look. After this look, Haley realized that the painting looked inexplicably familiar.

"Ahem, I heard that this picture was drawn by you when you were a child." Leon's timely reminder awakened Haley's long-cherished memory of stretching noodles.

"Where did you get it? I clearly remember burning it."

Remembering that she was the author of this ugly painting and how disgusted she had just been with him, Haley didn't dare to look at Leon again. It was too embarrassing.

"Someone gave it to me. I'm quite curious about this painting, so I wanted to ask if you, as the creator, have any unknown creative experience in this painting." Lyon said perfunctorily.

"Was it given to you by someone else? Who would give you this painting that was burned more than ten years ago? And it's so similar to the original? Could it be Emily?" Haley asked immediately after hearing this.

"No." Leon shook his head. "You seem to have a very vivid memory of this painting. Is it really something you made just to please your parents?"

"Yes, this painting itself has no meaning." Hailey nodded and confirmed: "It's just a prank to fool my mother."

After Haley said that, she took the painting in her hand and asked Leon.

"Do you need this painting? If not, just burn it. It has no meaning in itself, and keeping it will only leave me with a bad memory. Of course, I can compensate you for the loss of burning this graffiti."

"Then burn it." Leon thought for a moment, then nodded to Haley to confirm.

"Oh." Hearing that Leon actually agreed to her proposal, Haley immediately took the painting into the kitchen, lit the stove, put a corner of the graffiti into the fire, and then threw it into the sink beside her after it was ignited.

Only after burning the painting did Haley notice that Leon was standing behind her.

"Are you here to supervise me burning the paintings?"

"No, I just wanted to make sure my guess was right."

Leon shook his head, then walked around Haley and came to the painting that was almost burned. After the painting was completely burned to ashes, he fumbled in the ashes and finally found a small translucent card as thin as a cicada's wing.

"As expected, history repeats itself."

Seeing that the painting really left another clue after burning, Leon sighed.

If Leon didn't know that the original manuscript of this painting was burned, he would probably rack his brains but still not figure out that the way to decipher this painting is to burn it. It must be said that Mr. Qi, the riddle man, really has a routine.

Hailey, who had been watching Leon's operation the entire time, was surprised when she saw the small card in Leon's hand and asked, "Is this a negative?"

"Are you talking about the camera film that can be used to develop photos?" Leon asked Haley in confusion, looking at the small card in his hand.

"Yes, if I'm not mistaken, this is the film negative. But why can the film be preserved so intact in the flames? I don't know if the photos can still be developed under the influence of excessive exposure and high temperature." Haley confirmed.

"Why don't you try it and know?" Leon suggested as he handed the film to Haley.

"Leon, where did you get this thing from, and why were you able to get such a strange film from it? What are you hiding?" Haley didn't move, but frowned and looked at Leon and asked.

Because everything from Leon's appearance to taking out the painting and then burning the negative made Haley feel strange and weird, she had to figure out what Leon was doing.
