慎

careful / cautious

慎 = 忄 + 真 : Sherlock Holmes (sh) ordered a replicator (真) to make a flail (忄) for him in the encampment's bathroom ((e)n4), but Sherlock is quite skeptical (慎). Indeed, the flail is quite fragile and it bursts on the first cautious (慎) test hit.

忄

xi̅n = xi + (e)n1

Looks a bit like a flail.

真

zhe̅n = zh + (e)n1

really / truly / indeed / real / true / genuine

真 = 具 + 十 : Mnemonic symbol: a replicator. It generates real and genuine things out of nothing. Looks like a microwave with a cross as antenna. James II of England (zh) broke his replicator (真) in front of the encampment ((e)n1): the cross (十) on the top is broken. Using his toolbox (具), James II of England tries his best to fix it. Fortunately he has a genuine, authorized, real (真) replacement cross.
