    This is an alternating addition series with a random number, 4, interpolated as every third number. In the main series, 1 is added, then 2 is added, then 1, then 2, and so on.....

    Solution:
    2+1=3
    4 ( random number as every 3rd number)
    3+2=5
    5+1=6
    4 ( random number as every 3rd number)
    6+2=8
    8+1=9
    4 ( random number as every 3rd number)
    so option D is correct.
