9. HIGH STREET VENTURE

A man drives to the very end of his High Street and parks his car. He intends on going the the Post Office which is located at the other end of the High Street. Located near the middle of the High Street are two Fast Food Restaurants (One on each side of the road).

How does the man walk from one end of the High Street to the other without walking passed the Restaurants. He doesnt go around the block!!!!

Solution:

The man can walk from one end of the High Street to the other by walking on the sidewalk or path that is on the opposite side of the street from the Fast Food Restaurants, thus avoiding passing by them entirely.

High Street, is a semi-circle. He simply cuts across the grass or whatever is in between the 2 ends.

He doesn't walk past the restaurants. He goes into one of them and eats lunch. Then he goes into the other restaurant and buys a drink, and walks on with it to the post office.

He crouches down and runs as fast as his little body will allow to the first restaurant. He clears the building as quickly as possible; first strangling the assassin positioned behind the cashier, then using the assassin's gun to incapacitate the other two. He ascends the stairs, taking out the other two assassins hiding in the stairwell. He fires two shots through the closet door and hears the thud of another assassin landing on the floor, but something sounds off about it. He opens the door and the assassin drops on him from the ceiling. He bitch slaps the assassin and now the building is his. He uses the windows of the building to snipe at the assassins in the other building, successfully taking all of them out. Now, he jumps out the window and makes a dash for the drop zone. Once there, he retrieves the package and sprints back to his car. Mission accomplished. Minimal casualties. 10.10. Ace performance. Bravo. He must be a God
