Zhang Heng first picked up the slightly smaller Tule Tree Wooden Box. Inside was the item he had obtained in his previous instance, a gift from the Persian Old Trainer before he left Rome.

Moreover, he had no way to interview the targets afterward, so naturally, he could not learn about their thought processes.
That was also why, despite already knowing how to use the Heart of Keleisi, he had still asked Bartender Lady to appraise it after returning.
