Mnemonic symbol: I think 曾 just looks like a firefly, with the head (with two feelers) at the top and the glowing body at the bottom.
The firefly is selling aloe vera out of a big wooden box in the kitchen of the Erechtheion. With a big microphone it is advertising the aloe. As it sees a mean crocodile and the King of Chu starting a big fight for the aloe, the firefly is very excited and states that it has never ever seen something like this before.
The King of Chu takes part in a marathon starting in front of the anthill, and he already fixed his bib number to his shirt. Right next to him there is a mysterious, huge person fixing their bib number to their shirt. It is a big robot in disguise to be allowed to participate. The robot disguised itself with a fake nose and a long fake Santa Clause beard.
