Here you have given the number such as 2 3 4 5 6 4 8. For this series you have taken the numbers 2-6 is by adding 1 and the remaining numbers 4 and 8 cannot be possible for adding the digit 1 and hence the answer cannot be able to identify the 8 9.
Can you say these answer in detail?

Here 4 is a number that is repeated everytime at 3rd place.There is a simple addition is happen.Firstly add 1 then 2.so that by adding 1 in 2 we get 3.Now 4 will be appear at 3rd place as it is repeated.Now add 2 in 3 we get 5 and now add 1 in 5 we get 6.Now 4 will again repeated.Again add 2 in 6 we get 8.Now we add 1 in 8 we get 9 and again 4 will be appear.this is our answer.:)

Interpolation means adding a number in random without any logic
Thus:
2 next 3
Interpolation == 4
5 next 6
Interpolation == 4
8 next __? ==> 9
Interpolation == 4
This follows
Thus:
2 next 3
Interpolation == 4
5 next 6
Interpolation == 4
8 next __? ==> 9
Interpolation == 4
