Mnemonic


[shu-] Sherlock Holmes is in the [3] basement of the [-_] house where he is sitting at a table organizing the 虫 insects he caught on his trip to 蜀 Sichuan. He takes them out of the 勹 containers and 罒 nets he has them in and arranges the dead 虫 insects on the table. As he does this, he snacks on some 蜀 Sichuan peppers and whistles a 蜀 Sichuan tune. In Sherlocks mind, it is elementary that 蜀 Sichuan is the best province, even if their food is sometimes too spicy. He even tries some 蜀 Sichuan hot sauce on some of the extra 虫 insects he has and eats it. Not bad!
