A Sudoku rule (defined in PSE) is below:

A Sudoku is a puzzle consisting of a grid to be filled with symbols, such that each constraining unit contains each symbol exactly once.
The typical example is a 9x9 square to be filled with the numbers 1 to 9, where the constraining units are rows, columns, and 3x3 blocks.

Number Picker: 11 22 33 44 55 66 77 88 99

Note: the symbols |, -, + are just for bold lines in Sudoku, not any clue.

We have the hint in the rules, that give us

A a -> 1
e c -> 2
b e -> 3
h c -> 4
h i -> 5
a i -> 6
e i -> 7
f e -> 8
h e -> 9

In the Sudoku those are the gray numbers, assigned by the number pick.

The rest is simple solving
