Comments
Whenever a Pinyin initial is sufficient to represent the entire Pinyin syllable, we use the space station as the background scenery. As a reminder, here's the key how the tone maps to certain areas of a location:
Here's the key how to remember the tone of the Pinyin final:
1 -> in front
2 -> in the kitchen
3 -> in the living room
4 -> in the bathroom
5 -> on the roof
In this case, this is what the space station's bathroom actually more or less looks like. I downloaded a CAD drawing of the ISS from NASA, found the bathroom, rendered it in Blender (open source 3D software), and used the render as a basis for the final touches from Stable Diffusion (AI image generation software). Neat, huh?

Mnemonic symbol: in this character the sun goes from horizon to horizon, and thus I choose to represent it by a contrail.
Guy Fawkes wants to find out where contrails really come from, so he follows one until he arrives at the encampment's bathroom. There he finds that the sun was experimenting with a capacitor. She blew the capacitor up accidentally, resulting in lots of smoke, which then formed this contrail.
