  "abstract": "A recent ALICE measurement reports a finite strangeness enhancement in the toward-leading region of high-multiplicity proton-proton collisions. In this work, the trigger transverse momentum, $p_{\\rm T}^{\\rm trigg}$, dependence is investigated using ${\\rm K}^{0}_{\\rm S}$ and $Ξ^{\\pm}$ production in PYTHIA8, with and without color ropes, and EPOS-LHC. For $3 < p_{\\rm T}^{\\rm trigg} < 15$~GeV/$c$, EPOS-LHC and PYTHIA8 with color ropes exhibit a multiplicity-dependent increase of the toward-leading $Ξ^{\\pm}/{\\rm K}^{0}_{\\rm S}$ ratio, while the rope-free PYTHIA8 baseline shows a weaker dependence. With increasing trigger momentum, the enhancement is strongly suppressed in EPOS-LHC for $p_{\\rm T}^{\\rm trigg}\\gtrsim10$~GeV/$c$, whereas it remains approximately unchanged in PYTHIA8 with color ropes. This contrasting behavior is consistent with a reduced core contribution in EPOS-LHC and a local string-overlap mechanism in PYTHIA8 with color ropes. The trigger transverse momentum thus provides a model-sensitive probe of the mechanisms contributing to the apparent strangeness enhancement in the jet-like region of the pp collisions.",
