CRESTFALLEN'S GETAWAYBy Simon Wood
* * * *
Crestfallen was enjoying himself, chasing a urinal cake around the urinal with his pee, when the men's room door opened.
"I need your help," someone demanded.
Crestfallen glanced over his shoulder at the accountant type standing in the doorway. This wasn't the usual place he did business, but the detective couldn't afford to be fussy. "Come into my office."
The little guy did as he was told, letting the door swing close. "Are we alone?"
"As far as I know."
Crestfallen zipped up and made the pretense of washing his hands. Something he wouldn't normally do, but it was good business practice. No one liked to shake hands with a man who had just been holding his dick.
"I assume you know who I am?" Crestfallen kept his back to his prospective client and spoke into the mirror. The slight, bespectacled man was in no condition to take him on. He could afford to be nonchalant. He turned off the faucet.
The accountant type nodded quickly. "You're Peter Crestfallen, the private investigator."
