Nine and Henry exchanged a look. In the end, they suddenly stepped forward at the same time, each grabbing one of Joshua's arms and hauling him toward the room, his feet not even touching the ground.
Joshua was stunned. He struggled nonstop, a little angry. "Hey, what's wrong with you two? Put me down right now, they'll catch a cold."
Nine said slowly, "There's heating in the house."
Joshua immediately raised his hand and slapped him.
Almost simultaneously, both of them stopped and looked toward Joshua.
Joshua instinctively turned to Henry, only to see Henry staring blankly at him, completely frozen like his system had crashed.
Joshua couldn't help but frown. "I hit Nine, not you. What's with you suddenly looking all hurt? Who are you trying to show that to?"
Joshua pulled his arm out of Nine's grip, then looked at Henry and said seriously, "Go bring the others inside."
Henry lifted a hand to touch his own face, then lowered his head and walked out.
