Maybe a Fake Gintama

Chapter 358: Basically, Any Store Will Have Something Like a Secret Formula!

'Sh-Shogun!!' Gintoki and Shinpachi were both in a bad mood.

'I could never forget that dignified face! That elegant bearing! That humble pen**!' Shinpachi twitched half his face and looked at Gintoki beside him, 'Why... Why?! Why did the Shogun come to such a filthy place?! And why is the Shogun with Kawaki-san?!'

"Will you do my hair in a Mage?" Shige Shige repeated again.

"Are you sure? Do you really want to cut your hair in this place?" Kawaki was shocked, "Are you kidding? Yoshiwara also has this kind of thing. Not only the hair on top but also... can be done in Mage neatly for you~"

'He is definitely an idiot! Although I was already prepared when I heard the word, Young Shogun, I didn't expect it to really be the Shogun!' Gintoki gritted his teeth and looked at Kawaki. At the same time, he thought to himself, 'This idiot is still going to take the Shogun to that kind of place to play that kind of random game!'

"After all, I promised Katakuriko that I would personally return it to the shop owner." Shige Shige looked at the manga in his hand and said slowly, "I don't want to break my promise. And..."

As he said that, Shige Shige raised his head and glanced at the entire hairdressing area. He smiled and continued, "I also want to experience the life of ordinary people in this kind of marketplace. Let's put entertainment aside for now."

'No, no, no, no! Leave! Follow this idiot beside you to Yoshiwara!' Gintoki thought to himself, 'No, going to Yoshiwara is also not good. Please go back to your Shogun's mansion!'

"Are you serious? There won't be any beautiful hair stylists in this kind of place and there won't be any kind of killers like you think." Kawaki reminded.

'Most barbershops don't have one, right? Speaking of which, does this guy usually go to that kind of barbershop?!' Shinpachi thought with a dark face, 'Please stop talking!'

"En, I'm sorry, Kawaki-san. Can I ask you to wait for me a bit?" Shige Shige said with a hint of apology.

"There's no other way. After all, Uncle has already paid." Kawaki shrugged, "If I can't satisfy the customers, it might affect Yoshiwara's business. It's up to you."

"Thank you so much, Kawaki-san." Shige Shige smiled, then looked at Gintoki and the other two, "Then, please."

'We should be the ones asking you! Please hurry back! I'm begging you!' Gintoki and Shinpachi thought at the same time.

"Then I'll take a nap for a while." Kawaki closed the store door, yawned, and walked toward the sofa in the corner of the store. He did not notice Katsura, with his arm crossed over his chest and sleeping soundly, and Kondo, sleeping soundly with a towel on his face.

...

Looking at Kawaki, who was lying on the sofa with a manga covering his face, and Shige Shige, who had just walked to the innermost seat, Gintoki was about to collapse.

'What are we going to do now?!' Gintoki looked at Shige Shige, who was still sitting in the shop with a dignified face.

'What do we do?! Gin-san!' Shinpachi looked at Gintoki with his big red eyes.

'Don't ask me! I don't know either! I don't know anything! I don't want to think about anything now!' Gintoki glared back, 'I don't want to think about cutting the Shogun's hair or something!'

'Wait! Shogun-sama! We aren't barbers at all!' Shinpachi twitched the corner of his mouth and looked at Shogun who was sitting upright, 'Please spare us!'

"Well, it's just an ordinary Mage. Please hurry up, I still have an agreement with this gentleman over here." Shige Shige turned to look at Gintoki and the other two and said politely. Then, he turned around and sat upright again, "Please."

Hearing this, Gintoki and Shinpachi walked to the back door with their heads lowered expressionlessly and lifted the curtain to enter.

...

"What should we do?! Gin-san, what should we do?!" Shinpachi rushed to Gintoki, who was holding his head in front of him and asked.

"How could I know! Don't think that Gin-san can answer everything!" Gintoki shouted with sweat all over his face.

Then, he slapped Shinpachi on the head, grabbed Shinpachi by the collar, and complained loudly, "There are things I don't know! There are times when I want to cry! There are times when I want to run away! That's why I said to run for it! The two of you had to dawdle around!!"

Then, Gintoki lifted the curtain and poked his head out to look at the scene in the shop. Black lines appeared in the corners of his eyes, which were covered in a cold sweat. He slowly said, "What do we do? Hey, should we escape now? If we screw up his haircut... All three of us will lose our heads."

As soon as Gintoki finished speaking, Shinpachi couldn't hold it in any longer. He turned around, squatted down, hugged the wooden bucket, and vomited.

"He actually vomited?!"

"I'm really sorry," Shinpachi wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth. There was only exhaustion and weakness in his voice, "I'm really too nervous. I feel like vomiting... Gin-san, I can't take it anymore."

"Why are you trying to back out by yourself already?!" Gintoki quickly bent down and shook Shinpachi, "Get a grip, bastard!"

"Pathetic. Doesn't matter if he's the Shogun or whatever. The hair on his head is the same as everybody else's." Kagura stood at the side and said with disdain.

Gintoki lifted the curtain again and looked at Kagura, who seemed to be ready for a big fight.

"I'll do it!" As she spoke, Kagura walked to Shige Shige and said with a smile, "Welcome~"

"Whoa! There she goes! Impressive!" Looking at Kagura's figure, Gintoki praised her from the bottom of his heart.

"How would you like your hair done today-aru?" Kagura asked with a relaxed face, "A crew cut? Parted in the front? Mushroom cut? Or that stupid ponytail over there-aru?"

But just as she finished speaking, Kagura, who was standing behind Shogun, suddenly vomited.... but fortunately, basically all fall on the ground...

"Hey!" Gintoki rushed over, grabbed Kagura, and drag her to the back door.

...

"What the hell are you doing?! Are you courting death?! Are you trying to kill us all" Gintoki suppressed his anger and shouted in a low voice.

"The smell of Shinpachi's vomit drifted over, so I couldn't help but vomit to-aru." Kagura wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth and explained.

"It's not a problem that you vomit!" Gintoki shouted frantically, "What are you going to do if you vomit on the Shogun?!"

Shinpachi, who was peeking out from behind the curtain and secretly observing Shige Shige, turned his head and comforted him, "It's okay. It's barely safe. Shogun, he..."

However, Shinpachi was speechless soon after. He saw something pressing tightly against Shogun's forehead...

"Huh? Did the Shogun have a mark on his forehead?" Shinpachi's face darkened. He pushed up his glasses and said expressionlessly, "Looks like a naruto..." (TL note: Naruto is a fishcake usually on top of ramen.)

"Ah, from the ramen I had for lunch..." Kagura said, "I should have digested that."

"That's not the issue here!" Gintoki, who was full of black lines as he knocked Kagura's head with a fist, "What should we do? It was tightly stuck to his forehead! That's as bad as if he had "meat" written on his forehead! "

"Not good! Shogun is staring at the mirror!" Shinpachi hurriedly reminded.

"Cover it up! Somebody cover it up!" Gintoki shouted frantically.

"That," At this time, Kawaki slowly woke up. He wiped his eyes and sat up from the sofa. He looked at the three people behind the curtain and ask, "Is it still not done?"

As he spoke, Kawaki turned around to look at Shige Shige, but Gintoki and the others reacted quickly and rushed forward, pressing down on Kawaki's shoulder.

"Wait! This customer!" Gintoki said, "Our barbershop's craftsmanship is confidential, so no one is allowed to peek!"

"Really?" Kawaki was surprised, "Is it like that kind of secret formula? Is there any?! Do barbershops have this kind of thing?!"

"Of course! Our old-fashioned barbershop can survive because of this kind of secret craftsmanship." Shinpachi smiled apologetically, "So if it is leaked out, it will be very difficult for us."

"That's true. After all, business is already very cold." Kawaki nodded.

"Then, this gentleman should continue sleeping. It won't take long." Gintoki forced a smile.

"There's no other way. This is the only way." After saying that, Kawaki laid down again and closed his eyes. In less than a minute, Kawaki's soft snoring sounded again.

"Phew~" Gintoki wiped the sweat on his forehead, "In short, get this guy out of the way first, and then..."

"Gin-san! Look!" Shinpachi pointed at Shige Shige and reminded him in a low voice, "It seems that the Shogun also closed his eyes after hearing what we said just now!"

"Great! In this way, we can just remove the naruto before he opens his eyes!" Gintoki was secretly delighted in his heart. Then, he came behind Shige Shige and picked up a towel, "This guest, let me help you wipe your face first."

As he spoke, Gintoki picked up a towel and covered Shige Shige's face. He wiped it carefully, "Well, did the guest see something similar to naruto on the mirror just now? There is no need to worry about that. It seems that a child of a guest drew it on the mirror. I'm really sorry to let you see that thing."

"Ah, it doesn't matter." Shige Shige replied.

"That's good." At this time, Gintoki aimed at Shige Shige's forehead and swiped it with the towel. At the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief and then took back the towel.

However, after seeing an empty towel in his hand, Gintoki's heart which had just been relieved was raised again, especially after seeing the naruto that was moved to Shige Shige's left eye...
