3. The king taught everyone that “truth always comes out, and cleverness can solve mysteries.”
Exercise 3 – Think and Connect

2. Mohan’s act showed that guilt makes people behave foolishly when they try to hide the truth.
3. I would use the same non-violent method—it made the thief reveal himself without force or anger.
