Alex was so scared that his face turned pale, and he hurriedly looked around for something that could save Bruce.
Fortunately, there were a lot of branches and rotten leaves here.
Alex picked up a long dry branch and reached into the stream.
"Bruce, quickly grab this branch. I will pull you up."
Bruce floated in the water a few times, desperately swimming to the side of the branch, reaching out to grab the branch.
Alex was desperately pulling Bruce ashore.
With a lot of effort, Alex finally dragged Bruce out.
Alex and Bruce were scared and their clothes were wet.
"Alex, my clothes are wet."
"Take off your clothes and dry them. Otherwise, we will catch a cold." Alex took off his clothes.
"Yes."
The two children took off their clothes.
Philadelphia was a southern city. Although there was no winter, the weather was still very cold in December.
