If you're gonna say numbers until you reach the right answer, I'd like to see your logic.
I'd like to see yours.

9 is missing from all of the squares.

However you could solve this in many arbirary ways. For exemple:
By line, the sum of each line gives 22-2L , L being the number of the line.
So: 20,18,16,14 -> the missing number is -√9.

I will drop a hint after a couple of hours if nobody solve it by then.
Wtf, any "normal digit" is a quare-root of something. Aren't you clever enough to do those operations in your head for such small numbers?

And I've just given you a pattern, and the resulting number: -3.

There are infinite patterns to draw from that table.
+2, +1, +2, +1 is a lame pattern out of many more interesting ones.
