There was a tribal village that was managed by a powerful Leader.

There was a theft in the village which had occurred recently, however no one knew who it was.

After some investigation the police narrowed down on 8 suspects and brought them to the Leader.

The Leader gave each of them a stick and said, “These are magic sticks. Overnight the culprit’s stick will grow two inches longer than the rest. So tomorrow we will catch the thief.”

Even though the sticks did not have any magical power, the leader caught the thief in the morning.

How is it possible?

How that is possible that he knew something was in the way with his eyes closed?

You are in the passenger seat while Jatin is driving a car.
Jatin is very good in driving. He closes his eyes to scare you as he is driving. You look at him and see his eyes closed. Your heart starts thrashing because there is something in the road and Jatin has to deviate out of the way, but with his eyes closed he can’t see it, yet he still deviated out of the way and kept driving perfectly. Along with his eyes being closed the whole time, you were also silent the whole time.
