Exact Change
Puzzle
A man walks into an empty convenience store at midnight, buys a single bottle of water, and pays with a crisp $100 bill. The cashier hands him $98 in change. The man glances down, suddenly freezes, and sprints out the door into the darkness, leaving the water on the counter. He never returns.
Detective Hints
