He was still 20 on December 30th, turned 21 on the 31st, (his birthday) and the question was asked on Jan 1st. So THIS year he'll be 22, and NEXT year he'll be 23.

Charlie's birthday is on 31 December. The question was asked on 1 January. Two days prior, Charlie was 20 but now he's had another birthday so he's 21. Next year on 1 January he'd obviously be 22. And the next year on 31 December he'll turn 23.

Do you mean "Two days ago Charlie was 20 years old. Next year he will be 23. How can this be possible?"?

1. Today is January 1.
2. Two days ago was Dec 30 and Charlie was 20.
3. Yesterday (Dec. 31) was Charlie's 21st birthday.
4. So he will be 22 this year.
5. And 23 next year.

Suppose Charlie was born on 31st December-2002.
So two days back i.e.on 29TH December-2002 he was 20.
So on 31st December-2002 he will be 21.
Now this year means on 31st December-2003 he will be 22.
Now in next year he will be 23(On 31st December-2004)

Charlie is an animal of some sort, possibly a large dog?
Animals are supposed to age at a faster rate than humans..
