Chapter 11: Goblin Barbershop

When people sleep until they don't know the time, there will be a shadow to say goodbye......

- Lu Xun

When people are about to fall asleep, there is a knock on the door......

- Arthur

"Knock knock, knock knock. Qingyue's knock on the door came.

Arthur, who was lying on the couch, opened his eyes suddenly, he was thinking about how to get his news back to Bloodthorn tomorrow.

I opened the door with some doubts, and a beautiful girl in pajamas was standing timidly outside the door, and asked dryly, "Do you need service?"

Arthur suddenly felt a little funny, he didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing after crossing over, but now he naturally doesn't have this kind of mood, if he is alone, he may have to try the service of the other world, but with Guila, a good young man, naturally can't be like this. I just wanted to say no. The girl seemed to see what Arthur meant, and then said, "I—I'm the first time!"

Arthur couldn't help but look at the girl in the white cotton nightdress again, with a bit of pure beauty, and sighed that he missed it this time. Even Arthur's stone face is a little unbearable.

"Are you from Tamen?" Arthur asked, after a moment's thought.

"Yes, sir!" the girl whispered.

"Then come in!" said Arthur, letting the girl in.

"Arthur, who is it?" asked Gila as she poked her head out of the bedroom door.

"Your sister!" Arthur joked. And the girl suddenly lost her face when she saw that there was another person, but it was impossible to quit.

"What!" exclaimed Gila. Hurry out and see, the reflection is unexpectedly large. When she found out that it was an ordinary girl, she complained, "Really, don't make such a joke! What is she doing?"

"Miss our guide! I think we'll need one tomorrow. Arthur patted the girl next to him on the head.

"That's right, but where did you find it?" said Kira, confused.

"I delivered it myself. Arthur smiled and said, "I'm cheap for you tonight, it's the first time for people, remember to be gentle." ā€

Instead, Gila blushed and stammered Arthur not to make such jokes. But Arthur, of course, didn't really treat this girl well, and asked, "What's your name?

"My name is Nicole, and I'm not a tour guide. The girl refused. Obviously, being a tour guide and having someone do it is not the same price.

"Don't worry! Kira yawned. When it comes to penetrating people's hearts, he is truly unmatched.

"Really?" said Nicole, "but I need a lot of money!"

"Young Master Ben has money!Oops!What are you doing!" Gila sat on the sofa with a professional expression on the face of the second ancestor, and asked Arthur to give him a burst chestnut, "Let you pretend." ā€

"Aren't you a woman, young master?" asked Nicole in surprise. Then he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing and covered his little mouth.

"Woman!" said Kira, gritting her teeth. Arthur next to him didn't miss any opportunity to laugh at him, and immediately laughed extremely exaggeratedly.

Without mentioning the rest of the laughter, Arthur asked Nicole to come home and ask her to come back tomorrow morning. When she was about to go out, Arthur turned around and smiled and said to Gola, "You really don't need to?" Arthur smiled and didn't care. Tell Nicole to be careful on the road and close the door.

"Why?" asked Kira, curious. He didn't think Arthur's actions were meaningless.

"It's just that I just need a local, and I'm going to find a place tomorrow!" Arthur said casually.

Gila said "oh" and didn't ask any more, he understood that if Arthur wanted to say it, he would naturally say it.

Early the next morning, a barber shop in Tamen welcomed three customers.

Perhaps struck by Nicole's "Aren't you a woman?", Arthur's first stop is the barbershop, and Gila has already made up her mind to get rid of the long hair that confuses the genders. Arthur naturally didn't care, but when he arrived at this barber shop known as the best in Tamen, Arthur was surprised to find that all the service staff were goblins.

"Come in, sir, miss, goblins are at your service!" a small goblin greeted him with a smile on his face. If it weren't for its diminutive stature and ugly appearance, Arthur would have thought it would have been human.

Goblins once had their share of glory, but today, goblins are synonymous with ugliness and dirtiness. Although some places use goblin labor, it is often also used as a consumable. After all, goblins are very fertile and hardworking compared to humans. For a goblin, there is probably no other choice than to die at the hands of some adventurer's sword or to drain his life in some dimly lit mine.

But the goblins here gave Arthur a different look, although still so timid and humble, but with more confidence on his face. Except for one goblin who warmly entertained Arthur and a few others, the others were happily busy, keeping the barbershop clean.

It wasn't until he saw the portrait on the wall that Arthur understood what was going on. It was a portrait of an old goblin with the phrase "All for the Goblin —— Sherlock". The portrait is shrouded in a beautiful glass frame, showing how much the goblins here care for it. And next to the portrait is a bronze plaque inscribed with the words "Goblin Preservation Society", noticing Arthur's gaze, the goblin who received them is even more proud, although he doesn't say anything, but the rickety figure is also a little straighter.

Arthur knows that this old goblin named Sherlock is a legend of Merica, who established the Chamber of Commerce as a goblin and ascended to the throne of a councilor, and that his goblin bank has spread all over DeGrass, and is a figure capable of interfering with the economic situation of the entire continent. Legend has it that if it weren't for his status as a goblin, he would have been the speaker of this year's council, but it was still too appalling for a goblin to serve as the nominal leader of the human kingdom, so it was finally replaced by the current speaker Milas.

But the human beings do not think highly of this Mr. Sherlock, for all know how he exploited his kind, which was to drain every copper plate of them, and the goblins were no different from slaves except for a better living condition, and they worked endlessly, but they did not get any profit from their work. And his famous phrase "all for the goblins!" apparently became the greatest mockery.

However, the goblins obviously didn't think so, and when it came to Sherlock, they all looked respectful and even adored, because the Goblin Conservation Society did protect them from being killed at will, and it was undoubtedly much better to work in the shop than to fight death in the wilderness.

Arthur couldn't help but sigh: at this point, goblins are undoubtedly much simpler than humans.

"What hairstyle do you want?" the goblin barber asked Gira politely, standing on a stool.

"Bald!" Arthur interjected. Nicole covered her mouth and snickered.

Gila glared at Arthur before saying, "Just cut it short!"

"Yes sir!" the goblin barber had been waiting for Gila to speak, and he wasn't too stupid to take Arthur's joke seriously.

Arthur was sitting bored, waiting, but a goblin offered a copy of today's paper. That respectful and polite attitude made Arthur sigh again: What is service? Diligent goblins are born to be materials for the service industry, but Arthur glanced at Nicole who was sitting next to him and thought: Only this aspect of goblins can't serve!

Arthur's gaze panicked Nicole, who seemed to be terrified of Arthur since learning about Gilat's gender. Arthur didn't ask her why she needed money, but Gila cared, but didn't ask much. After all, everyone has their own life, and it is enough to know that her money can help her, perhaps because of Arthur's influence, Gila doesn't seem to be too involved.

By the time Arthur flipped the newspaper to the second side, Gila was over. Satisfied, Kira looked in the mirror and turned back to ask Nicole, "How do you feel?" and he wisely didn't ask Arthur's opinion.

Nicole was already stunned at this time, and the long hair that had been shaved off suddenly had a little more refreshing taste, leaving only the forehead bangs, while the contours of the handsome cheeks were completely revealed, although it was still a little feminine, but it had become a neutral beauty. This beauty made Nicole instantly not know how to describe it.

"Okay, little white face, don't be stinky and beautiful. Arthur interrupted.

"You're jealous!" said Kira, disdainfully.

"I said earlier, I've been so handsome. Arthur shrugged.

"Hah!" Gila chuckled, letting her mockery be revealed, there weren't many opportunities for him to mock.

"What do you mean!" exasperated Arthur.

"You can ask Nicole!" Gila smiled. Then he said to the barber who was waiting next to him, "Your craftsmanship is wonderful!" and he pulled out a silver coin.

"Thanks, sir, I'm looking for you!" said the barber, thanking him, and took out a money box to find a handful of change for Gila.

"The rest is your tip!" said Kira, looking in the mirror, unconcerned, but apparently pleased with the change.

"Thanks, we don't tip here!" the goblin bowed again, respectfully and resolutely.

Gila let out an "oh" and took back the change, he didn't need to show his wealth through a few changes.

After leaving the barbershop, Arthur and the others decided to take a look at the Grand Fair at Tower Gate, which is one of the important attractions of Tower Gate. Gila got rid of the title of sissy and was in a happy mood. Arthur also felt that this kind of Gura was much more pleasing to the eye. However, not long after walking out of the barbershop, Golat's face suddenly changed drastically, so Arthur also became nervous, Gila is not a person without a city, but only with Arthur seems casual. It is definitely not a trivial matter that can make his face change drastically.
