Debra noticed everyone's eyes had settled on her.
She asked, "Remember those ledgers?"
"Yeah. The ledgers only contained numbers alongside regular inventory records," Erica replied.
Debra mused, "If those four ledgers truly hide a treasure map, could those numbers represent geographical coordinates?"
Erica shook her head. "But there are so many numbers. How could it be..."
Marion cut in, "It's possible."
Randy tilted his head. "How so?"
Marion explained, "31°N and 120°E mark Seamar City's position relative to the equator, but Seamar City has more precise coordinates."
Debra said smoothly, "Seamar City spans from 120°52' to 122°12' east longitude and 30°40' to 31°53' north latitude. Don't the numbers 30 and 120 seem familiar?"
Erica clapped her hands. "Those numbers appeared repeatedly in the ledgers. They were highlighted in red."
"What if they correspond to coordinates centered around Seamar City's downtown?" Debra said.
"30... 120..." Erica murmured, her finger tracing the map until it landed on a suburban mountain range marked with [30,120]. "But this mountain was leveled years ago."
"Leveled mountains can still hide treasures beneath." Debra's eyes glinted. "Weren't there legends about royal family treasures buried during wartime disasters? If the Potter family's massive expenditures weren't used for intelligence outpost maintenance, then they might have funded the mountain's excavation."
"Did we just find the hiding place of the treasure?" Erica's voice rose with excitement.
Liza leaned forward, captivated. Treasure hunting, which only existed in movies, now happened in real life.
