After having a nice battle with the zombies while carrying Hannah around by the waist awkwardly, everyone managed to escape to a safe house nearby and lost the zombies chasing them.
With all the sounds from their battles, they'd only attract more and more zombies and unlike zombies, humans had a limit to their stamina.
"How did you live?" Matthew asked in a confused tone as soon as they'd reached the base.
He was really devastated at the fact that Hannah 'fell down' by 'accident' when their squad was escaping.
In order to avenge her, he went on a rampage and was later found by Eleo and Emma after a long search, collapsed with bloody wounds all over his body.
"You're too reckless" with a knock on the head, Matthew smiled in embarrassment.
True he was too reckless, at that point of time he merely thought of the anguish and despair the death of his crush for over 10 years had caused him.
"Whose that guy?" Confused as to why he was so interested in Jeremy, she explained off about his looks, how he's been looked upon as a teacher(sensei) by her.
Hannah, of course, left out about the part where it was Aloysius who pushed her, not without knowing who pulled the strings. She also wanted to slowly collect the interest before doing anything foolish.
Turns out Matthew and the squad was sent for a mission to Strawberry city just for the retrieval of a certain object, the team captain sent out by the government revealed that it was confidential and that they could not access the information.
Now for the fun part about the day.
Dinner.
"Matthew, since I'm back wanna celebrate with a homecooked meal made by yours truly?" Hannah asked in a whisper when she saw Amanda staring at her.
Teasing the little sister was so fun, especially when her face turned red in anger when she 'accidentally' rubbed his cheeks with her lips.
Though that intimate moment caught Matthew off guard, he still agreed to her request.
The men and women in the group had been questioning him about the girl who fell from the sky.
He merely responded that she was a friend and that he lost during an excursion nearby here and she was finally back.
His explanation was taken in and accepted.
Who didn't lose people during excursions?
But the fact that she made it back proved that her 'luck' was extraordinary, not many people managed to survive to be in a zombie infested city alone.
Especially a healer who has no attacking capabilities.
He left out the part about Jeremy since Hannah wanted his information to be kept a secret so as to not disturb him.
Hannah personally cooked up a nice meal, and served everyone a range of pasta, and asked everyone if they'd enjoyed it.
It not only brought up the mood but her savory dish made everyone's impression of her increase as well as their favourability towards her.
It made Amanda clench her fist in anger upon seeing how the team was bought over by her so easily.
Buying them over would cost a lot more zombie nuclei now.
Hannah, of course, did not forget to dump whatever she could find into Amanda and Aloysius's food. She even secretly put a little something that would let them have a nice battle with their stomachs later on. (laxative)
When Amanda ate it, she immediately spat out the food towards Hannah.
It made everyone look towards their direction.
"That's disgusting, only pigs can stand this kind of food" Not noticing the atmosphere around her, Aloysius and Amanda immediately scolded Hannah in a harsh tone, not even apologizing for ruining her dress.
"I'm sorry....." Hannah 'tried' to apologize
This made Amanda seem like a bratty kid that went against her.
There were even not so friendly eyes staring at her because of her remarks.
Finally, after sensing killing intent directed towards them did they notice the unpleasant mood.
"We are just joking right brother?" Amanda panicked and tried to salvage the situation, blurting out the first words which came into her mind.
No one bought her words and ignored her, some went ahead to console Hannah and Matthew even glared at her.
If not for the fact that she was a girl, she reckoned that Matthew would straight up punch her already.
Aloysius who was still mad was about to rebut when he felt his skin burning, only then did he get the message and chose to shut up while glaring at Hannah.
"You ok?" Matthew asked in a concerned tone, normally Amanda and Aloysius weren't so rude, They even offended the entire team and displayed their stand against Hannah.
It seems that he had to cut some ties to protect her.
Hannah with her objective achieved thanked Matthew while gloating in her heart.
"Why do I feel like she's turning into a real Villainess?"The system wondered.
Normally she would just act and be bullied, when did she gain the power to bully others and get benefits at it?
Xiao Bai " All that matters is that she's a hypocrite, what hating white lotus? Isn't she acting like one.."
"PAH"
Xiao Bai with a nice bun on his head " I mean, wow she's really adapting and growing now, finally matching my standards"
Hannah couldn't be bothered to slap that narcissistic fella.
Since when did he start learning from her? That's bad, they only needed one narcissistic fella, her around annoying everyone.
What if he grabs too much attention?
The system who just read her thoughts 'My host doesn't have the normal way of thinking'
