Lyman just shrugged. "Not anymore. Lucky for you, you never had any to begin with. Consider it a gift."

"You-!"

"Officer, if there are no witnesses and no evidence, I'm free to go, right?"

The officer nodded. "You're free to leave."

Lyman didn't waste another moment. He left, Effie following close behind.
