Mnemonic


[qi-] Kirby is [2] inside the [-an] pawn shop where a 夫 groom comes in to pawn off a miniature 日 sun that he places on the counter. It is so hot that it causes the pawn shop counter to catch on fire. Kirby has no choice but to 氵 spray water from his stomach all over the 日 sun, the 夫 groom, and the rest of the shop. There is so much 氵 spray that soon the entirety of the inside of the pawn shop is 潜 submerged under water. Even Kirby is 潜 submerged as he tries to think of what to do now.
