His infallible talent had finally stumbled.
This rarely happened.
Shen Xin's competitive spirit instantly flared up. He asked Ma Tao if he could go inside.
'It must be because Walnut's back is turned,' he thought. 'He just hasn't seen me.'
'Otherwise, it would only take one look for him to like me.'
"Don't."
Ma Tao quickly stopped him, explaining, "Forget strangers—Walnut won't even let people he knows get close. We only interact with him under special circumstances."
"I have no idea why. When I went to Kang Province to bring him back all those years ago, his personality was fine."
"He was a little aggressive, sure, but we keepers could still get close to him."
"But now that he's older, his temper has just gotten worse and worse. He's like this with everyone."
He leaned against the iron gate and called out a few more times. Getting no response, he looked helpless. After a moment's thought, he said, "Actually, we've been trying to figure out what to do with him."
