Joan of Arc (ji) spilled a bottle of soy sauce (酱) in the anglepod's bathroom (ang4). She quickly covers the mess with sawdust (丬), but there are already a few bats (夕) and roosters (酉) licking up the soy sauce.
Mnemonic symbol: this character looks a bit like a bat, and bats come out of their caves at dusk. I could see the upper left 丿 as part of the bat's right wing, ㇇ as the body/head and 丶 as the eye of the bat.
Xi Shi (xi) goes out for a space walk in front of the space station (Ø1) in the evening (夕), where she observes a space bat.
