The innocent child's cries became sharper in Xu's mother's arms. It was obvious that Xu's mother did not show mercy to him just because he was still a young child.

The child's crying, the mother's begging and Xu Xu's smug smile mixed together made Bai Yuzhi feel particularly disgusted.

Bai Yuzhi looked at Xu Xu. It was not unreasonable for this woman to be chosen as the heroine.

She is indeed ruthless and extremely cautious.

Xu Xu had been pretending to be crazy and stupid for such a long time. If Bai Yuzhi hadn't seen through his tricks today, he might have been able to hide it from the world.

Xu's mother held the child in her arms, his cries growing fainter during the standoff between Bai Yuzhi and Xu Xu. Xu's mother had never killed a human or a zombie before, so she couldn't accurately predict a child's endurance. This caused her to nervously pinch the boy without any effort.

Xu Xu frowned and clicked his tongue impatiently: "See? If you don't let me go, he will die!"

In fact, she was not very satisfied with Xu's mother's way of doing things, but it was acceptable that her mother, who could not do anything, could do this.

Xu Xu threatened Bai Yuzhi with the little boy's life, and she thought Bai Yuzhi would definitely be soft-hearted.

But what Xu Xu didn't expect was that Bai Yuzhi just smiled coldly when he heard her words. Xu Xu was still tied up with special ropes, and her only ability with offensive effect had been taken away by Bai Yuzhi, so she was still kneeling on the ground in embarrassment.

Bai Yuzhi smiled and leaned close to Xu Xu's ear, covering his nose with some disgust. Xu Xu's body was covered with dirt that he had deliberately not cleaned when he pretended to be crazy.

"You don't think I'll save him."

Xu Xu's eyes widened.

Bai Yuzhi prefers to see Xu Xu like this now compared to the self-righteous look just now.

So she continued, "Wouldn't it be better if he died? Then what would threaten me?"

Xu Xu yelled, "Aren't you afraid his mother will resent you?"

Xu Xu knew the mother of this little boy. She was a rare high-level female psychic. She had been raising the child who had not yet been weaned alone since the end of the world, but she still managed to raise the little boy to be plump and white. It was enough to show that she was a very capable woman.

Xu Xu wanted to use this to make Bai Yuzhi compromise.

A high-level psychic in the base is a big trouble for the Forbidden Boat Base and Bai Yuzhi.

But Bai Yuzhi looked as if he had been reminded, and suddenly realized, "You are indeed right. I should learn from this experience and avoid another stinky rat like your mother appearing under my nose to cause trouble."

Her smile was more charming than a flower, but her words were chilling: "I just need to kill her on the spot, then no one will take revenge on me, right?"

While Bai Yuzhi was talking to Xu Xu, he was observing the situation on the city wall calmly.

She had discovered those strange rats gnawing on Xu's mother's calves as early as when she held the child hostage, Bai Yuzhi told the system.

"Help me watch over her. When the wound on her calf turns completely black, call me."

The system obeys the order.

The wounds caused by rat bites are not ordinary minor injuries that are easy to deal with. People who were bitten by rats before the end of the world may have been infected with rat plague, and these big rats produced in the end of the world are even more perfect carriers of the virus.

Judging from the color of the wound on Xu's mother's leg, the outbreak of this virus will come especially quickly.

When the virus breaks out completely, Xu's mother will fall into chaos and pain, and that will be the best time to save her.

But once the little boy returns to the crowd, the situation will be reversed instantly.

Will Xu Xu give in to save his mother, or will he remain so heartless to the end? That will be a great show that people are looking forward to.

Bai Yuzhi used words to constantly stimulate Xu Xu. Xu Xu was indeed not really crazy, but because she had lost her superpowers and had been locked up in a dark dungeon for so long, her mental state was on the verge of collapse, so even some simple humiliation could make her break down in pain.

Bai Yuzhi was very clear about this, and she had a grasp of Xu Xu's mental defenses.

Xu Xu fell into the white jade language trap, and she could no longer think calmly.

In fact, if Bai Yuzhi really didn't want to save people, she could have captured Xu's mother right now or killed her on the spot. Even Xu Xu himself could have been easily crushed to death by her loyal dog.

But she didn't.

This means that Bai Yuzhi gave the female psychic a chance to save people. She would not save people herself, but she would not leave them with no way to survive.

Bai Yuzhi will not take anyone's life unless it affects herself.

Everything depends on whether the female superpower can react.

But after all, Bai Yuzhi is not that kind-hearted. She will not personally go to great lengths to save the child who ruined her plans. Whether he lives or dies is up to fate.

Xu Xu couldn't calm down and think, and Xu's mother didn't have the brains to do so, so for a moment, they were in a stalemate.

But just because they two couldn't figure it out doesn't mean others can't see it either.

The little boy's mother, the powerful female psychic, had already seen Bai Yuzhi's meaning clearly. She looked at Bai Yuzhi with gratitude, and then cooperated with Bai Yuzhi in the performance.

"Please, my lady, please save my child!"

Bai Yuzhi was indifferent: "Why should I save your child? Can't you save him yourself?"

The woman gritted her teeth and looked at Bai Yuzhi with disappointment and resentment.
