Mnemonic


[l-] Legolas is in the [4] bathroom of the [-ai] high school when a bunch of high school kids suddenly come up to him as he washes his hands at the sink. They always 赖 rely on Legolas, who is like their cool elf older brother. They have a 束 bundle of 贝 shellfish that they want to open as their lunch snack. Legolas takes out a ⺈ dagger that he always 赖 relies on and cuts open the 束 bundle and pries open a couple of 贝 shellfish for each of the students. They sit there on the tile floor eating their 贝 shellfish instead of going to class. You can always 赖 rely on Legolas!
