Events with Saibara
Ellen’s Visitor Part 1
Date: Fridays, any season except winter (rainy days only)
Time: 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM
You can only view this event when it’s Year 2 or later. Shortly after you arrive at Ellen’s house, Saibara will walk in. Ellen is glad that Saibara visits him and asks him how he’s doing. Saibara gets embarrassed and quickly leaves after getting his lunch.
Ellen’s Visitor Part 2
Date: Mondays, rainy days only
Time: 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM
To view this event, you must have seen the first part, and it’s Year 4 or later. Saibara and Ellen used to go out often together, and Ellen reminisces about the times when she could walk. Saibara encourages Ellen that there may still be hope for recovery, but Ellen has come to terms that she can no longer walk.
When Saibara notices you standing there and listening to him, he immediately leaves Ellen’s house.
Customers for Kai
Date: Any date, summer season only
Time: 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM
Saibara is one of the customers who visits Kai’s restaurant during this event.
Visit Kai’s restaurant at Mineral Beach between 5:00 PM and 7:00 PM. Kai tells you he doesn’t have any customers. Popuri shows up with a lot of customers, and now Kai is worried that it’ll be too difficult for him to cook for all of them. You agree to help Kai, and he thanks you for your help.
Note: The day will end when you trigger this event, so finish all your tasks before going to the beach.
