[su-] Superman is in [1] front of the [-o] office building where he comes across the pope who keeps on making a strange 嗦 sucking sound as he walks around in front of the building. Superman gets some 糸 silk and puts it in front of the pope's 口 mouth and the pope just 嗦 sucks it in, holding it in place with his 嗦 sucking power. Nobody knows why the pope is like this, incessantly 嗦 sucking.
