Explanation

The 書館 part should be readable by you, but it's the that's troublesome with an alternate reading from the one you learned. Imagine yourself at the library. You check out every single book you can about the human toe (). You have a giant stack of books on it, then you drop it... ironically on your toe. You decide to show Khan (your buddy) your smashed toe.
