Mnemonic


[xu-] Professor X is in the [4] bathroom of the [-(e)n] infirmary where a 小 small 子 child is passed out on the tile floor, surrounded by nurses and doctors. He just floated in from the 辶 road after he detected the situation while wheeling by outside. He goes up and uses his mental powers to cure the acute sickness the 小 small 子 child has, and all of the nurses and doctors praise his amazing mutant abilities. Of course, he is a 逊 modest professor and says it was really nothing at all, no big deal, but he is just being 逊 modest.
