Never mind me."
"Don't I get a pourboire?" grumbled the driver. "No, sir. You're lucky to get anything." The detective started. "You know my name? What do you mean?" The cab was already moving, but the driver turned on his seat and, waving his hand in derision, he called back: "Ask Beau Cocono!" And then to his horse: "Hue, cocotte!"
