        The storm settles The evidence rests safely in a spare breadbox, kept for these kind of occasions. The Constables find nothing on your friend, and the inquiry is forced to end for lack of evidence.

        Betrayed! […] The Constables find nothing on your friend; they do, however, receive an anonymous message suggesting they search your home. They find the evidence in your possession. "Funny how this ended up with you," they say, snarling.
