In the days that followed.
Shou Yunxiao became a hero in the local town, as well as Inari's stepfather.
During the day...
Shou Yunxiao hunted and worked, trying to find a way to attract Gato's attention.
At night, Hyuga Sho would come out to examine Tsunami's health.
He would also implant false memories into Shou Yunxiao's mind, gradually perfecting the method of shaping his personality.
Finally.
On the fifteenth day after Shou Yunxiao's personality had taken shape.
Gato turned his attention toward Shou Yunxiao.

"Bring him here."
