Mirror, mirror.
Juliette
The gatekeepers want to make a "spring amulet." With it, we can remember spring all year round. We can fill it with the power of the Spirit of Nature and protect the Tree of Life. I remember spring by looking at the Mirror of the Sun. Find it, dear friends!
This "mirror of the sun" helps me remember spring. It also reminds me that I am like the sun! I hope the gatekeepers find it useful to make a "spring charm".
-
Cradle of Spring
Mei
As a priestess of the Blue Dragon, I know that the spirits feed on people's prayers and emotions. If the "Spring Amulet" is to be used as a means of empowering the "spirits of nature," then it is definitely worth making. Look for my egg-shaped chest. When you find it, I will explain everything to you.
My hut is in the shape of an egg. It represents the cradle of life. It is decorated with cherry blossoms. It reminds us that winter is not eternal and that spring will come. I will place a scroll of sutra inside.
-
Nice buds
Lady
That's exactly what the gatekeeper said. It's important that people remember spring all year round! I usually collect crocus buds at the end of spring. I usually collect crocus buds at the end of spring so that I can grow them in the winter and fill my home with the excitement of spring! Can you spot the "crocus flower"?
These magnificent "crocus flowers" are in full bloom right now. Take this to the gatekeeper. You will use it to make "spring charms" for everyone in town!
-
The Magic of Lawn
Valerie
The gatekeeper says he's going to make a talisman to remind us of spring all year round. It's a great idea! Everyone is always looking to bring back the best of the season and fill their lives with the little joys of spring. Subconsciously. I decided to grow a lawn for Ed. I love those "lawn planters". They are so heartwarming! Can you go find that one for me for a minute?
How about a hedgehog planter with a spring lawn, creative, right? It puts me in a good mood all year round! Or not. I'm giving this to the gatekeeper for his "spring good luck charm".
-
invisible protection
Abbot Paku
The apprentices will be able to fight them off, but the sooner Flora gives the cure to her husband, the better. I made a camouflage necklace using a mirror from the showcase but I dropped it. Please help me find it!
Have you found the camouflage necklace? Flora wore it. It's not perfect, but it should be harder to find. The disciples are confused and there should be time to give the cure to her husband.
-
Ship Lanterns
Captain Drake
Now, find the ship's navigation lights. You don't know what it is? It's a lantern with red or green glass. It's to show the size of the ship.
Yes, this guy is my ship's lantern: ....... Yeah, I'm starting to miss that ghost ship and crew.
-
Secret Ingredients
Captain Drake
Every ship needs a cook. I was on the Wandering Dutchman. The most important thing for a cook is, of course, spices. I was too afraid to ask him where he got it or what it was made of, but it made for some horrendously good food. Find out.
I recognize this chef's spice: ..... You said it's the magic ingredient that makes a dish unforgettable.
-
When the musket gun breathes fire
Captain Drake
The Wandering Dutchman was loaded with good weapons. It fought well in the afterlife and in this world. Find the helmsman's old musket gun.
Nice musket! Yeah, reminds me of the time we raided a ship and boarded it, ABC 22nd and 23rd hours, the sound of gunfire, the screams of the enemy, that's hard for a real pirate to take.
-
longshoreman's whistle
Captain Drake
Next time, find the whistle of the ghost ship's chief sailor. Oh, I haven't seen the chief sailor in a long time. We've been on the same crew for a hundred years.
This whistle is also called the chief sailor's signal. It is used by the chief sailor to give orders. Especially during storms or when preparing to sail, without it, his voice would be drowned out by the noise.
-
Sea Time
Captain Drake
First, you need to find the hourglass of the ocean. What, you don't know what that is? It's an hourglass that measures exactly 30 minutes. That's the first thing we need to find on the wandering Dutchman.
One of the sailors on the ghost ship is assigned to watch this hourglass. That sailor rings the bell every half hour. This is the "dotted bell.
-
Vase with many facets
Monk
You and your friends show extraordinary wisdom. Soon you will solve the riddle of the celadon vase! The fifth clue is this. The soul of man is a multifaceted vase. I think I'm close to solving all the riddles. Find the multifaceted vase.
This wonderful celadon "multi-faceted vase" symbolizes that people have many facets. So what we have here is the last clue to the riddle of our ancestors!
-
vase on a pillar
Isabelle
I would love to help the monk. You're asking a riddle about a Chinese pale celadon vase. The clue was in the last vase found. "The universe is an expensive vase on the back of three whales. Have you seen a vase with three legs anywhere?
The Three-Legged Vase is complex, but very stable. It looks as if it really stands on three pillars. There was a clue inside. Just as I had hoped.
-
The Silent Threat
Flora Alvarez
We need to get rid of the disciples and protect the cure at all costs! I was researching the effects of sound. Some sounds have a therapeutic effect and some have the opposite effect. Look for an ultrasonic ocarina!
That ocarina for me! It might even work on my apprentice, since some creatures don't like the sound of this ocarina! Cover your ears, just in case! I did it, it worked! Some of the disciples run away!
-
Winter Rain
Icy
Umbrellas are not just for rain. They provide perfect protection against snow, too! Winter holidays often bring sticky, watery snow. Why not find an umbrella that Juliet can use even during such times?
That's what I'm talking about! This sturdy umbrella will protect its owner even in bad winter weather! Juliette would be delighted to receive such a gift.
-
rain after a long dry period
Martha
Fall is the wettest season. Juliette needs an umbrella for the fall downpours. I had a prophetic dream about you looking for an umbrella for her, our mutual friend.
You found an umbrella for the fall rain. The decorations on this umbrella are not very practical, but Juliette will love it. You don't need to ask the spirits.
-
Under the Stars
Helen
Have you ever seen a meteor shower? Oh, you'll never forget a sight like that ever again! I hope Juliette ever walks through a meteor shower too. How about finding an umbrella for the starburst rain?
That's great. You found the perfect umbrella for starry rain. It's like there are so many stars in the sky! Juliette will be so happy.
-
drop of sunshine
Adeline Svensson
It rains in the summer too, that's a given! I think Juliette needs an umbrella that can be used in the heavy summer rains. Something practical yet elegant. Let's find an umbrella that will also work in the hot weather.
Amazing! You found an umbrella that works for the heavy summer rains. This will protect Juliette from the scorching sun. You know that too much sun is bad for your skin, right?
-
Spring Awakening
Lady
Juliette asked me to help her. She wants me to find umbrellas for each season. For example, spring rain wakes the earth from its sleep. The first buds sprout with that rain. Why not find an umbrella for the spring rain?
This is a fabulous umbrella! I'm sure Juliette would be comfortable under this umbrella in the fresh, temperamental spring rain.
-
Wonderful scenery
Valerie
This orange tree has long branches that block the path of passersby. It's a magical creation. It must be an illusion created by a mischievous roadside pumpkin. Let's take him to Samhain's hall before he loses his magical powers.
It must have taken a very high level of magic to produce such wonderful street pumpkins. It would be a shame if the pumpkins lost their magic.
-
The Miracle of the Pharmacy
Abbot Paku
There are too many of them, even though they have to fight off the disciples. If we can make a numbing powder from the medicine in the pharmacy, we can stall the disciples. Can you help us?
With your help we were able to make numbing powder. Let's sprinkle it on the disciples and see if it has any effect on these dark wimps. Alright! Some of your disciples have fallen to the floor and stopped moving!
-
Stuck in Time
Kira Woodville
Disciples at the pharmacy! I was going to try a stall trap, but I can't find it anywhere. Quick, please help me find the trap!
Did you have a stall trap? Capturing the apprentices in this trap will give the agents a chance to neutralize them! The Security Service has some of the best scientists in the world!
-
Let there be light!
Abbot Paku
To repel the disciples, we must bring back the light! Darkness works to the advantage of the enemy. There should be a bottle of ether in the pharmacy that can light the fire. Let's look for it!
Okay, you have created an eternal lantern! Do you see the shimmering shadows? Those are the disciples! It seems that the Shadow has sniffed out our presence and decided to send its minions our way this time.
-
Blood-sucking pumpkins
Valerie
Watch out! A vampire has descended upon us. ...... Oh my God, it's not just a phantom! That means there's a vampire pumpkin nearby. And it's a fast-moving one! But if we don't get him to Samhain's hall soon, he's going to lose his magical powers. Come on, grab him!
Don't worry, you'll be fine. A vampire pumpkin bite won't turn you into a vampire or a pumpkin. It's just an illusion. Keep them locked up in the halls of Samhain so they don't lose their magical powers.
-
Vase of moderation
Cardsharp
I heard that the monk found a riddle that will lead you to the treasure! The third clue is this. A vase of moderation is thrifty and trustworthy." This Chinese vase must be vase-shaped and have gold inside! Look for a celadon "vase-shaped" vase.
That's a big "vase-shaped" vase! There you go. In ancient China, it was believed that thrifty people would keep things of value in a vase. It's sad to see that it's not gold inside, but a piece of paper. ......
-
Vase of abundance
Juliette
You are looking for a specially shaped celadon vase for a monk, right? Here's the clue that was in the first vase you found: "The Vase of Mercy has a large belly. The Vase of Mercy has a large belly. But its slender neck will fill them all. This describes the jug. Find it!
I found an ancient Chinese "jug-shaped vase" made of celadon porcelain. This is the Vase of Mercy! There's a piece of paper inside made of bamboo. It has a new clue written on it.
-
Vase of Beauty
Detective
I heard a monk found a scroll with an old riddle written on it in a pale celadon vase. You can wear my badge. To solve it, you need a vase of various shapes and sizes. The scroll gave the first clue. "What is a beautiful vase but a perfect woman's body?" I'm not disagreeing with that one. Oh, I get it! I have a pale celadon vase with a feminine shape. Find me a "gourd-shaped vase."
The smooth, streamlined shape of this "gourd-shaped vase" looks like a woman's body, doesn't it? But it's what's inside that interests us. Not the shape. See, there's a second clue inside!
-
Strong Advantage
Huntress
Everyone in town seems to think they can compete with me in the race, but they are naive. You need to be in perfect shape and have the right sled if you want to win the race. Can you find me a bobsled?
Bobsleighs are a type of sled that performs best in mountain sports. It also has a control stick. And it looks like my crossbow, doesn't it? Or am I the only one who sees it that way?
-
extreme route
Alex
I need a Rodel sled to get into the race. You know, the one they use for extreme downhill sleds in the Alps. Don't look at me like that! Ghost or no ghost, sledding is fun. Now, can you find a Rodel sled for me?
Unlike other sleds, the Rodel sled is controlled by applying pressure to the blade. That's the key to me winning races. Thanks for finding it!
-
Ribbon on the tip
Valerie
Ever since those snowy hills showed up, everyone has been obsessed with sledding and racing! I think people think it's too complicated. Can you find me a simple wooden sled? One with ribbons. Because I'm a girl.
Nice sled! This sleigh has no skids or straps to get in the way. Watch me, I'll be the first to get to the bottom of the hill!
-
Experienced Riders
Conductor
I've decided to race, too. Why wouldn't I? The sled I've been riding since childhood is the best way to get around the mountains. Why don't you look for it?
With a sled like this, it's easy to win races. Thanks a lot! I'll make sure to grease the sled's teeth. The sled will glide over the snow like a hot knife through butter.
-
Indigenous people don't make mistakes.
Detective
I'm going to kick all the mooks in the downhill race. I'm gonna dedicate my victory to my Juliette. Sounds like a great idea. You gonna help me out, buddy? When I was younger, I saw an aboriginal toboggan sled. It was so light. That's a winner for sure. You'll find out soon enough.
What a brilliant toboggan sled! And so light. Thanks! There's still time before the race.
-
Wedding Customs
Flora Alvarez
For the medicine to work, something must be added to protect the husband from eternal oblivion. It has to do with the vows that the husband made at the wedding. Look for the tie that was cut.
So there was a tie! According to tradition, ties are cut at weddings and given to guests. We didn't invite anyone to our wedding, so Fabio kept it. He swore on the tie that the couple would live happily ever after.
-
eternal love
Flora Alvarez
I need to collect "personal" material for the medicine I will give to Fabio, i.e., something that will show my love for him. For a long time I have been struggling with that. Could you please look at this orange flower?
This orange flower was my hair ornament on my wedding day. Like my love, I did not want these flowers to fade. So I treated them with a solvent I found at the pharmacy.
-
The Power of Asclepius
Flora Alvarez
To save her husband, she must add snake venom to the cure. The snake has been a symbol of Asklepios, the god of medicine, since ancient times. I believe there was some left in the pharmacy. Let's look for it right away!
This is the snake venom we have been looking for! Of course it is dangerous, but in the right amount it has healing properties. This is why people often have both pro and con opinions about snakes? Don't worry, I know what I'm talking about...
-
Symbol of the soul
Abbot Paku
Unusual materials are needed to cure oblivion. Let's collect them. It is said that the heavenly pearls in the shells have much more power than ordinary pearls. Can you find them?
Wonderful! You have obtained the Pearl of Heaven. Where did Flora find it? It is truly a miracle! This pearl symbolizes the soul in the body and the connection between them. It is exactly what poor Mr. Fabio needs!
-
root of life
Abbot Paku
To concoct the elixir of awakening, you will need ginseng root, which is full of the power of dawn. It is an extremely rare ingredient, and I am amazed that Flora was able to obtain it. But where to find ginseng? Let's look for a pharmacy.
This is the ginseng at dawn! I am glad that Flora was beginning to worry. In the East, ginseng is said to have the power to give life force to the dying and infirm. I also heard that the energy of the dawn is said to drive away the "darkness of oblivion".
-
around the world
Flora Alvarez
Don't jump to hasty conclusions. My story is almost over. With a single-minded desire to save my husband, I traveled the world in search of a cure. And finally I found it! Look at this jar of herbs.
You have researched the rarest herb in the world. I found it growing in only one place in the Altiplano in South America and picked it for my husband's remedy. It was a one-time opportunity!
-
Unfortunate accidents
Flora Alvarez
Please hear the rest of the story. One night, while sleeping, the transformation was undone. When Fabio woke up, he was knocked unconscious by the horror of seeing a giant snake in his bed. Since then, his work tools have been gathering dust. See...
You see the thick layer of dust on his work tools? Fabio has been on the verge of life and death for a long time, until now. It's all my fault! But I am doing everything I can to fix him.
-
a sick body and a healthy body
Flora Alvarez
Believe me. I am not in danger. Listen to me. My dreams have come true. I got the job I wanted and he proposed to me. But something unexpected happened. Look at this picture.
If you look closely at that wedding photo, you can see my snake element. It began to appear on my face from time to time. It was only for a moment, but I was stunned that I could not keep my human form forever.
-
Love and Change
Flora Alvarez
Let me tell you about myself and show you that I am not dangerous. After the transformation, I found myself working in a pharmacy. And I tried to get the attention of that man. Find the broken medicine cabinet.
The medicine chest you found for me is also a memento. That man was a carpenter. To meet him, I used to break things and call him. But we didn't have time to fix this medicine chest. We chatted a lot and eventually abandoned the repair work and went out on a date.
-
Souvenirs from the Past
Flora Alvarez
I know that you are all responsible for the security of this city. But please. I know you don't believe me, but please listen to me. Do you see that skin in that forehead?
This framed skin originally belonged to me. I kept it for my memories. I have the blood of an old temple serpent, which allows me to take on human form.
-
indisputable evidence
Kira Woodville
We need hard evidence to show that snakes live in this pharmacy. Let's continue our investigation. This is suspicious...what is this pile of used prescriptions?
The holes in the prescription look like fang marks. Flora said she used a hole punch, but did not take the punch out to show it.
-
Snake fun
Rayden Storke
We should investigate the possibility that Flora is lying and the snake is in the pharmacy. Maybe they keep them for snake venom to use in dispensing. See, I knew it! Otherwise, why would there be a tree branch there?
Do you too think these tree branches are for snakes? It looks like a bed for snakes to use. Look, it even has some scales on it. Flora can no longer be excused.
-
Important Clues
Kira Woodville
Check the pharmacy for traces of snakes. There is no reason not to trust residents' complaints about seeing snakes. I found something very strange. It looks like a sweater for snakes to me.
I guess I was right. This really is a sweater for snakes. Well, there certainly seems to be no other way for snakes to survive the winter. I wonder how Flora will explain it.
-
heating
Rayden Storke
I don't trust Flora. She is hiding something. Maybe it's a snake. Let's find traces of the snake! When we came in, one hot water bottle was placed separately from the merchandise. Let's check it out.
I was talking about that hot water bottle. Is it still warm? Snakes are, as I recall, a thermoregulator. Flora categorically denies any connection between hot water bottles and snakes, though.
-
Adequate rest
Valerie
Training is important, but rest is just as important. Even Eddie can't be strong on an Easter egg hunt if he's tired. Ferrets love to nap in little hammocks. Will you look for them with me?
Shhhh ...... look, Eddie is napping in that little hammock you found! There's nothing more touching than a little ferret snoozing away. Tomorrow is finally the day of the contest. Everything is ready. You'll be there, won't you?
-
Where's the exit?
Valerie
I saw one of the judges trying to hide an Easter egg in an old hole. I wasn't scouting anything. I just happened to be training nearby. ...... Okay, let's find a special tunnel. We should be prepared to look for Easter eggs in the basement!
You found the perfect tunnel for Eddie! With it, he'll be able to move quickly through narrow aisles and find Easter eggs faster than anyone else! Thanks to you, I have a much better chance of winning the pet contest.
-
Catch!
Valerie
Finding Easter eggs is not enough to win the contest. You get points for putting the Easter eggs you find in the basket. Eddie has to do everything he can to earn points! I want to teach Eddie how to carry things, so can you go find a small ball?
This ball would be a winner for sure. Sometimes Eddie doesn't listen and when he does, he won't give me what he finds. ...... I came up with a little game. You get a reward for being a good boy!
-
ferret (Mustela putorius)
Valerie
It's not enough to just jump. The judges and assistants will be hiding Easter eggs in all sorts of places. We need to be prepared for that. We need something for Eddie to climb on... a hanging net, for example.
This hanging net is just right! Eddie seems to like it a lot. Look how much fun he's having climbing! The faster he can move, the better his chances of winning. No wonder Lady's dogs can't find the Easter egg before Eddie does!
-
Faster and higher
Valerie
In the contest, I'm going to do my best with Eddie to beat my competitors. I already have a training plan. All we have to do is find the equipment we need. First, can you help me find a portable barrier? I'm going to use it to practice the steeplechase.
I see you found a training barrier. Thank God! Eddie is a ferret, so he moves fast, but climbing and jumping are not his strong points. So I thought it would be a good idea to practice. I had to train him before the show!
-
A masterpiece for my wife
Adeline Svensson
I can guess that Gilbert Frye became interested in bees after he fell in love with Hannah. But without proof, I can't do the story. What kind of relationship did the scientist's wife have with bees? Let's look for her belongings too. Maybe we will find out something.
Oh, this velvet ottoman is definitely Hannah's. The seat has a beehive pattern and the name "Lady Bee" is inscribed on the side. I wonder if that's what he called his wife. I'm pretty sure I saw a café with the same name on an old map of this city. Let's check with the mayor.
-
Big Day
Adeline Svensson
Gilbert Fry's diary is full of records about bees, but is it possible that that ring was a gift for a special lady? Citizens often balk at romantic stories. Can you find anything that might give us a glimpse into his personal life?
Nice work! You found a wedding invitation addressed to Gilbert Fry and Hannah Hieber! Look, there's candy on the invitation. From the smell, it tastes like honey. It seems that everything in a scientist's life is connected to bees. We're one step closer to finding out why.
-
The Price of Discovery
Adeline Svensson
As a journalist myself, I know that sometimes scientists do research for money. Maybe someone was paying Gilbert Fry to do research on bees. If he was in need of money, that would be a decisive motive. Look for any valuables or money in his house.
All I could find were research tools. I don't think any of them are that cheap. ...... Oh, you found a ring with a bee shaped gemstone on it! By all accounts it's expensive and I think it's custom made. Frye doesn't seem to have been strapped for cash. But whose ring is it?
-
rare species
Adeline Svensson
Gilbert Frye was researching a rare species of bee before he turned his attention to the magic golden bee. But why bees? In his diary, he wrote that he was breeding bees in the tropics. There must be a hive of them left somewhere. Can you find it for me?
Glad you found the rare beehive. I'll have to take some pictures for my article about Gilbert Fry. According to his journal, bees in the tropics produce a pungent honey. I guess that's what piqued my interest: ......
-
Surprising Findings
Adeline Svensson
Gilbert Frye initially began his career studying butterflies. But at some point, his passion turned to bees. In writing this article, I need to know the reason for this shift. Maybe his diary will give us some reason. Let's look for it.
I found a pressed flower in the diary of the scientist who found it. If this is a rare honeyflower, why didn't Dr. Fry write down its name? And if this flower is a memento of some special event, what event? I'll have to do more research.
-
Pleasant Atmosphere
Kira Woodville
Let's check the pharmacy to see if there are any traces of snakes. That pharmacist claims he didn't see any snakes, but our job is to make sure they are there. Did you see a humidifier running at full power? That's unnatural. Let's check it out.
Humidifiers are running at full force. But for what? Flora says it is humidifying for some medicines, but isn't it really for snakes?
-
Orchestral excitement
Terry Tofficus
Add an accompaniment to liven up your performance! It is a good idea to prepare an instrument that produces a lively sound. Your guests will surely enjoy it! Will you help us find instruments at the fair?
Peppermint Candy! Playing these instruments will make the song even more exciting. All for the joy of Christmas! I'm sure you'll get an encore!
-
Dubious Silence
Rayden Storke
The pharmacist seems to have cobbled together a nice storefront, but I still don't like it. I generally don't see a doctor. They give me a lot of stuff I don't understand. Now, let's go inside with caution!
Hmmm, look at the smell of licorice throat lozenges and this and that on the shelves. It would not surprise me at all if there is a snake here. That is, of course, if the witnesses are not exhibiting hallucinogenic side effects from some medication.
-
Sweeping Grief Away
Valerie
I already got a few statues of Hotei. What I want is a statue of Hotei with a fan that is said to bring good luck. Of course you can find it for me.
I did it! I finally have a statue of Hotei with a fan. Now my happiness is assured. This fan will blow away all the difficulties and obstacles that stand in my way. But I still need to stroke my stomach 300 times to make it work.
-
harmony
Terry Tofficus
Butterscotch! I completely forgot about an essential tool for performance. The tuning fork, of course. Without it, you will not be able to produce the correct musical scale! Bring it from the candy store.
Thanks for bringing the tuning fork! Now I won't be out of tune in front of an audience! My singing voice will sound sweeter than freshly made caramel.
-
Christmas Starlight
Terry Tofficus
For this concert, each year the performers will bring a Christmas lantern. The light from the lanterns adds warmth to the singing of our elves. I have some in my store, would you bring them?
Thank you for bringing your Christmas lanterns! For the elves, the Christmas star is a symbol of joy and hope. And this lantern is in that shape. The warmth of the lantern's light will surely reach the people of the city!
-
Jolly Tune Sheet Music
Terry Tofficus
For the show, we chose the most energetic songs we learned in rehearsal. Can you help me find the sheet music for the song that makes my heart skip a beat? I left it somewhere in the amusement park.
Thank you very much! I feel that the sheet music for this heart-fluttering piece will keep the concert running smoothly. The sheet music is in a convenient and nicely designed folder. The concert will definitely be a success!
-
Spiritual balance
Valerie
My lucky charm collection needs a Hotei statue with prayer beads. This statue will help each person to find his or her own way in life and maintain spiritual balance. Please help me find it. We can't live in this city if we don't maintain our spiritual balance.
You found it! That's great! There's a reason I have the Hotei beads. I read in a book that this monk used to visit people's homes one after another to advise them on their life paths.
-
Spiritual abundance
Valerie
Well, thank you! The pearl mourning cloth statue brings wealth. And the pearls represent spiritual as well as material wealth. Believe it or not, if you stroke the belly of the statue 300 times, your wish will come true!
-
Phantom spider web
Valerie
Most of those magic pumpkins couldn't have gotten far. Look, in the window of that house over there, I can see the illusion of a spider web created by one of the pumpkins. Only a spiderweb pumpkin could create something so delicate.
The spiderweb pumpkins need to have magical energy. If we take them to Samhain's hall, they'll continue to be delicately decorated.
-
Orange Cat
Valerie
Here, come here! I didn't come here just to feed the cats of the city, but look, they're all here for food. Black cats, tiger cats, tortoiseshell cats ........ Look, there's an orange cat. This must be the magic cat pumpkin. Let's return it to Samhain's hall. Come on, catch it!
Cat pumpkins are magical illusions, they don't scratch. It seems this pumpkin still has some magic left in it. Let's hurry up and put it back where it belongs.
-
Phantom of the Owl
Valerie
Martha told me that magic pumpkins can create a bit of an illusion. Look at that! That pumpkin lamp is hopping from tree to tree. That's definitely the owl pumpkin that escaped from Samhain's hall. It must be hiding near here, so let's look for it.
Don't you think this owl pumpkin is so cute? But if we don't get them back to Samhain's hall soon, they'll go back to being regular pumpkins.
-
Stage on the railroad tracks
Terry Tofficus
I am in charge of setting the stage this year. How about decorating a Christmas train convertible? Then we can move the presents out of the way and set up the benches. Would you like to help?
Sweet lollipop! Thank you. Now every elf will be clearly visible to the audience during the performance. The stage with the train is perfect for a Christmas concert!
-
Melodies of Childhood
Huntress
I've been under the illusion that the monster is hiding among the branches of the camphor tree. If I want the spirits in the trees to stop imitating the monster's voice, I just have to make them hear a more gentle sound to their ears, right? Then you can use my miniature hand-cranked organ!
The sound of this hand-cranked organ reminds me of my innocent childhood. Back then, I believed that monsters were imaginary creatures.
-
person who sighs when asleep
Salem
The monster sounds coming from the camphor tree remind me of Halloween. But there is another sound I want to share with the camphor tree spirits. It's the sound of butterfly wings. I'm going to call some of them over, will you catch them?
The butterfly is perched on your hand. It seems they like you! There's a perfect expression for the delicate sound of a butterfly's wings: ...... "flower breath".
-
Sounds that remind us of spring
Doorkeeper
You want the camphor tree spirit that imitates the monster's growl to make a different sound? How about the sound of water flowing down a mountain stream? It reminds me of spring. Let's listen to it right now!
If a stream ornament is attached near the camphor tree, the spirit will imitate the sound of the rushing water.
-
The Sound of Sensation
Adeline Svensson
I'm writing an article about a camphor tree that houses a genie that imitates the voices of monsters. I'm hoping the sound will be a little more pleasing to the ear. ...... Oh yeah, how about letting the genie hear the sound of the shutter of your flash camera? You can borrow my camera, but you'll definitely have to return it to me later!
I love the sound of a flash camera! The sound of a shutter is a symbol of a sensational event. For a journalist, there is no better sound.
-
Light typing sound
Terry Tofficus
Bursting Sugar! The interviews are finally starting. Please hope it goes well! While we are talking, could you bring Adeline's typewriter?
Great timing. I just finished the interview. Thanks for bringing your typewriter. Adeline says she can write the article now. I look forward to the latest issue of HIDDENCITYTIMES!
-
Camera of pride
Adeline Svensson
Terry is perfect! Let's take his picture right away! Can you help me set up the camera on a tripod? This portable camera is a workhorse that I can't live without as much as my voice recorder. It allows me to take great pictures!
Thanks to you, we got some great photos! Terry seems to embody the Christmas symbol of joy and kindness. So, let's begin the interview.

You are almost ready for the interview. First, let's take some photos for the article. Terry's picture will be on the front page, so let's have her dress up a bit. Can you bring your makeup kit?
Makeup tools play a big part in important coverage. With these tools, you will be able to make your elf stand out like a shining Christmas star. Let's give him a makeover.

Voice Health
Terry Tofficus
I'm ready for the interview, but first I need to warm up my vocal chords...Adeline said it's going to be a long interview. Oh, butterscotch! This will kill my voice! Can you grab the voice remedy off the shelf?
Thank you for bringing this voice remedy to my attention! This caramel syrup contains medicinal herbs for the voice. Add peppermint extract to it and your voice will be smooth and clear.

Sounds of Home
Juliette
The spirits in the camphor tree are recreating the monster's voice. Isabella and I are going to make the tree make a sound that is kind to our ears. If the genie can make that sound repeat itself, then the people of the city will no longer be frightened by the sound of the dreaded monster. For example, the guides love the sound of the steam train whistle. Let's look for that.
You found the steam train whistle before I did! They say the sound of the whistle reminds the guide of home. That's why you loved the sound.

Journalist's Companion
Adeline Svensson
I've always wanted to interview an elf! Terry has a lot of guts. His other colleagues remain shy, blushing and silent...I'll find a place to interview him, and in the meantime, find my voice recorder.
Thank you! A voice recorder is a necessity for journalists. Without it, I cannot go on an interview. I need to record every word of what my interviewee is saying. Let's begin the interview with Terry.

wish to be isolated
Valerie
Hanako-san said she lost some kind of dangerous doll artifact? Yes, I saw a "conical dharma doll." I picked it up for a second and then I couldn't find Edward! I'll look for Ed, you look for the "Tapestry Dharma"!
You found Dharma. Edward is back! Hanako-san said that the owner of this dharma wanted everyone to be alone. He must have been a lonely man.
-
I want hate.
Juliette
Dear Friend, Are you looking for a "tea room" dharma? I saw one for a moment ...... and it was kind of disgusting. So I hurried away from there. It was a "woman dharma". It smelled dangerous. We should hurry up and find it, will you?
According to Hanako, what was put into that dharma was a woman's wish. She wished to be loved, but she wished others to ignore her. How terrible!
-
hope to be defeated
Huntress
Hanako's dharma is really dangerous stuff! Just by touching her samurai dharma, she couldn't win the battle at all and almost died. And now the dharma has disappeared! Find it and take it to Hanako!
According to Hanako, the Samurai Dharma is a wish of a warrior. He wished for his enemies to continue to be defeated. What a cowardly wish!
-
wish to fail
Hanako
Thank you for helping us find Dharma. They are growing in power in the City of Shadows. I dread to think what would happen if that Dharma fell into the hands of the wicked. Please bring back the Dharma of Prayer Fulfillment!
This Dharma helps the owner to do what he desires in his heart. However, this owner wanted to make sure that no one else's wishes would be fulfilled. I will take this back to the "tea room.

Teleportation Magic
Terry Tofficus
The materials for the book are almost ready! All that remains is to prepare my masterpiece, the teleportation map. The map reflects the entire city. Please bring it from my store.
The light on the teleportation map is a real portal, and just touching it instantly takes you where you want to go. Now, let me go get my tools. I'll be right back!
-
Insightful bookmarks
Terry Tofficus
A reader of HIDDENCITYTIMES saw our ad and came to the store! Hurry up and jot down the customer's request in your notebook. Oh, and bring your magic bookmarks from the store, too.
Thank you for finding the magic bookmark! The prism of the bookmark finds the words and sentences that its owner is thinking about. It is truly the magic of Christmas!
-
Convenient assistant
Terry Tofficus
Curly Caramel! The book also has a handy work management page. They let the owner know about scheduled jobs and errands. It should be somewhere in the candy shop. Please go look for it!
Thank you very much! This page not only automatically erases completed jobs from the list, but also adds new ones. Plus, it has the ability to highlight the job and its time with a magical glow. Isn't it amazing?
-
wish to quarrel
Martha
We have to retrieve the dharma, the dark wishes of the people. It is a dangerous artifact, and its power will increase in this city. We cannot let such a thing go unchecked! First of all, there is the Netsuke Dharma, the incarnation of the Bodhisattva. I can feel it near here.
This netsuke dharma is a very old artifact. I feel a craving for destruction and strife. ...... What a terrible desire! Hurry up and take this dharma to Hanako-san.

be hasty
Adeline Svensson
A treasure chest from Noah's Ark that will save the city from a flood? And that it will make its owner rich? That's the most exuberant story I've ever heard! Can you help me find a mating pair of snails in the city? I saw their silhouettes in the treasure chest.
You found a snail mating! No, don't give it to me! It's disgusting! Julie says mucus has good effects, but gross is gross!

Cardsharp
Martha told me that in addition to protecting us from the flood, Noah's Ark treasure chest will also make its owner rich. I think I saw a pair of suspicious frogs in town, and I've been trying to catch them, but I've been too lazy. That's where you come in!
Wow, you caught a couple of frogs pretty fast! You and I should start a shell game club together. We'll be rich! If we don't get swallowed by the flood, of course.

Rainbow-colored handwriting
Terry Tofficus
The Book of Good Deeds must be written in rainbow-colored ink made from the first snow collected under the blizzard-strewn Aurora sky. This ink is not only vibrant and beautiful, it's also practical. Will you take it off the shelf?
Thanks for your help! Letters written in rainbow ink change color depending on the need. If it's an urgent matter, it's red, if it's not urgent, it's green, and if there's a little extra time, it's yellow. Isn't it nice?
-
Lizards with tails
Juliette
A lizard passed right in front of me! I saw one just like it in town. They must be the mating pair of lizards from Noah's treasure chest. Let's catch them and stop the rain. Ed and I are soaking wet!
That's great! The lizard fits perfectly with the silhouette of Noah's, I mean, Martha's treasure chest: ...... Oh, that's not important. What's important is if they'll ward off the rain!
-
Keeper of the Secret
Terry Tofficus
Inspired by Santa's gift list, we have created the Book of Good Deeds. There are many innovations in this book. For example, the contents of the book are protected by a chameleon skin cover that only the owner can open. Can you bring me the cover from the store?
The palm-shaped area on the camouflage cover only reacts when the owner touches it. It is imbued with a magic that detects its own energy, making it look like a recipe book to others!
-
pair of wings
Juliette
Because of the terrible storm, my umbrella broke while I was running to help you here, dear friend. Martha promised to stop this flood if you caught the animals that got away? I saw a pair of shining birds. How about catching these birds?
Poor bird, soaking wet! Look, there's a silhouette of this bird perfectly shaped in the treasure chest of Noah's Ark. Oh, he went back to the carved wooden figurine!
-
Follow the dog.
Adeline Svensson
To save the city from flooding, I should find a mating animal. ...... There's a silhouette of an animal on the treasure chest that's hard to decipher. If you use your imagination and look closely, it looks like a dog. I must return it to Martha before the water ruins my newspaper! Let's find the dog.
What a cute dog! Nice work. With Martha, the animals have been returned to the ancient figurines of Noah's time. Looks like their place is in the treasure chest.
-
Harmony of Nature
Juliette
Oh, my dear friend. It's so beautiful with the sky reflecting off the crystal clear river water! Don't you think Lady Rosemary would be inspired by this beauty to make agar desserts? Yes, I think so. We should look for desserts like this!
What a lovely idea! Only Lady Rosemary could have created the harmony between the river and the sky in an agar dessert. She will definitely survive the ordeal of the garden!
-
Blatant Beauty
Mistress
No doubt Lady Rosemary was impressed by the view of the cherry blossoms. That must be what she is making for her "pastry-making ordeal". You must find the "Cherry Agar. Get on with it!
I told you so. Lady Rosemary's new dessert for the "Trial of Pastry Making" is "Cherry Agar".
-
Floating Inspiration
Valerie
Wow! Look at those beautiful fish in the pond at the "Japanese Garden." I bet Lady Rosemary must have made that agar masterpiece during her "pastry-making ordeal". Find the "Swimming Fish Agar"!
You found "Swimming Fish Agar". Lady Rosemary's new dessert masterpiece! From my side, it doesn't look like I took a bite, does it?
-
faint autumnal atmosphere
Martha
The downside of being a psychic is that you never get surprises. The spirits tell me what's in the gifts they prepare for me. So, let's go to Terry's to pick up my candy apples.
Candied apples remind me of fall. Terry's gift brought back the fondest memories. Plus it was nice to see him doing his best work.
-
Bone of the Earth
Juliette
Lady Rosemary has taken the "confectioner's ordeal" and she's gone off somewhere. To find her, we need to find some garden-inspired agar candy. The "Japanese Garden" is like a colorful jewel, even the pebbles are colorful! This may have influenced Lady Rosemary's confections! Let's find out.
Perfect, dear friends! This is Lady Rosemary's new masterpiece of agar, Pebble Agar. So we're headed in the right direction. We'll find Lady Rosemary soon enough.

Octopus for fog
Conductor
I'll help the card cheater find the octopus item. If we can find the secret tournament, maybe that guy will calm down and stop beating the residents at cards with impunity. I used to have a "Mysterious Octopus Lantern". I used it to check the streets. Find it.
You brought my octopus lantern! The last time I had this guy, he didn't keep me from falling into the werewolf's den. But this time, it just might take the card cheater to the tournament of his dreams.

Bad Gifts
Detective
I hear the card cheaters believe that an octopus item will lead them to a secret tournament? But that's where a lot of criminals hang out! I saw a vase shaped like an octopus somewhere in town. Come on, let's go look for it.
Found the "Octopus Tangled Vase." Maybe this will get me to the card cheaters' tournament. And me, by the way. We're going undercover to break in and catch these criminals!
