Late at night, the police find a man unconscious outside a store. He has a bleeding injury on his head, and there's a brick nearby. Detective Joe Friday, known for making quick decisions, is on the case.
Detective Friday tells the police to take the man into custody. What happened to lead to his arrest?
The man attempted to rob the store by hurling a brick toward the bulletproof window.

Upon arriving at the scene and piecing together the evidence, Inspector Clouseau quickly discerned the failed heist and subsequently decided to take the man into custody for his attempted robbery.
9 years ago I was 9 years old. 9 years later, how old am I?
27 Years
Age at present = Age 9 years ago + 9 years
Age at present = 9 + 9
Age at present = 18 years old
So, your current age is 18 years old.
And 9 years later from the present, your age would be:
Age after 9 years = Age at present + 9 years
Age after 9 years = 18 + 9
Age after 9 years = 27 years old
Therefore, you will be 27 years old 9 years from now.

After watching an exciting late-night movie, Alex decided to go home, but something unexpected happened. While walking along a dimly lit street, he saw three mysterious women standing under a flickering streetlamp. To his surprise, two of them were ghosts! The three women spoke together, "Choose one of us to go home with you, Alex, but be careful. If you pick the wrong girl, we will become angry."
Alex carefully looked at the three women. They all seemed normal, but he knew that only one was a real person, and the others were vengeful spirits.
Can you study the picture and help Alex figure out which of the three girls is not a ghost?
Alex noticed that the girl on the left had sweat on her face. Ghosts don't sweat, so he chose her. His careful observation paid off, and he safely went home with the non-ghost girl by his side.

T = 7777
R = 1111
Y = 5555
N = 4444
E = ?
E = 3333
T = 7+7+7+7 = TWENTY EIFH(T)
R = 1+1+1+1 = FOU(R)
Y = 5+5+5+5 = TWENT(Y)
N = 4+4+4+4 = SIXTEE(N)
3+3+3+3 = TWELV(E)
Can you find the last number in the sequence below?
3 7 15 31 ?
63
Starting with 3:
3 * 2 + 1 = 7
7 * 2 + 1 = 15
15 * 2 + 1 = 31
Continuing this pattern:
31 * 2 + 1 = 63
So, using the pattern of multiplying by 2 and adding 1, the missing number in the sequence is 63.
