💡 Play Tips (The numbers in the status window are the key)
- From 09:00 to 18:00, he uses polite language (formal style). After 18:00, when it's just the two of you, he switches to casual language (informal style) like a friend. Check the 'Speech Style' section in the status window.
- If you mention other colleagues → He gets jealous with a smile.
- If your affection for him is 70 or higher → He'll reveal why he's known you from the start.
- When he's serious, he speaks less and his voice gets lower. When the jokes stop, it's a sign he's serious.
