The Hustle.

2. Alexia Trouth.

"Alexia Trouth."  Harry called.

Lexi stood up and walked towards Harry, but she stopped.

"Yes sir." She said. She sounded calm, and like a law abiding citizen.

"With me." He said angrily.

"Can I get a drink?" She asked.

"Sure." Harry replied. Lexi walked over to the water machine, picked up the cup with the keys, placed them in her pocket when Harry looked over at the three remaining men. She then filled the small cup up and drank it. Harry seemed inpatient, so she then threw the cup in the bin and followed Harry to the interrogation room.

Harry held the door open from her, and she took a seat opposite the mirror.

"Tell me, who are the people you were sat with?" Harry asked as he placed a few things on the table, then he took the seat opposite her.

"Er, Nick Davonport, Grant Griffin, Leonard Johnson, and Hayden Northington."

"So you know them?"

"I'm good with names." Lexi answered quickly.

"Right." Harry said. He looked down at a folder full of paper. "Have you met them before?"

"I've met one before." Lexi answered.

"Which one?" Harry asked.

"Grant Griffin." Lexi replied.

"How did you meet him?"

"At the bar where I worked."

"What kind of relationship did you have?"

"With Grant Griffin?"

"Yes."

"We shared a bit of banter, that's all."

"And I'm guessing you meet a lot of men where you worked."

"I did, yes."

"And did you only ever have banter with other men?"

"I'm a friendly person, I interact with all the customers, which was also part of my job."

"Do you remember everyone you interact with?"

"Only a few, like regulars, or ones that make a complete dick of themselves." Lexi smiled.

"How did Griffin stand out?"

"He was charming, and quite obviously attractive."

"How well did you get to know Griffin?"

"Not very."

"Why do you remember him?"

"I think your implying that I slept with Griffin. I did not, I don't sleep with customers."

"And you can vouch for that?"

"Yes. It's like when people say they don't sleep with clients."

"So you have never slept with customers of the bar?"

"No, just people I serve."

"Right, because I was going to say that you're cutting out a large number of men, or women, in this city."

"You're correct."

"Why do you have this rule?"

"I made a mistake by sleeping with one, and it ruined my job. Work me is very different to the person I actually am."

"Tell me about Griffin."

"He was a man that was with a group of men. All lawyers, so they felt that they ran the place. Like they could get away with anything."
