[qi-] Kirby is in the [4] bathroom of the [-an] pawn shop where he is making a weird soup in the plugged-up dirty sink. He drops some 艹 flowers and a bunch of 芡 starch in to thicken up the soup. The owner of the pawn shop comes in and gives him a 欠 bill for clogging the sink with so much 芡 starch, but Kirby just inhales him and goes back onto making his 芡 starch soup in the sink.
