Mystery
Tom Nook has returned! After a quick explanation about more things about the gameplay, Isabelle starts to notice that bugs are suddenly starting to avoid the island. Tom Nook notices too, and says this could be the job of one person... the Bug Thief! Tom Nook explains the Bug Thief likes to camouflage around the island so he's hard to catch, and you have to look carefully. You are sent outside to look for the Bug Thief. After finding the Bug Thief near the bulletin board, he is quickly arrested, and the bugs return to the island. Mystery solved!
