Nancy Drew 23: Shadow at the Water's Edge Hints
How do I find the thing that was thrown in the water?
2 of 5: -- you discover that something was thrown into the pond here in the garden that you need to find. Try walking around it looking for hotspots.
3 of 5: There are a couple of spots where you can look at the water; most of them are useless. The one you want is under the bridge, but reaching the spot is a little difficult.
4 of 5: To reach it, step out of Rentaro's shed and walk across the bridge, then turn right. Look for an arrow that curves right (the straight arrow will take you to the bamboo fountain) and click.
5 of 5: The thing she threw in the water is at the right, and it's a key. Lovely!
