In a country town of United Kingdom, a man and his grandmother were watching the Japanese news on television.

 

The news was about the 50-carat diamond at the jewelry exhibition in Yokohama.

When she watched the news, she said “That diamond and my diamond are similar.” According to her story, she has visited Japan fifty years ago. When she stayed at a hotel, her diamond was stolen. The diamond was a present from her husband.

After he listened to the story, he decided to go to Japan.

In Yokohama of Japan, he saw the diamond. The diamond and his grandmother’s diamond are the same, he thought. Since he saw the pictures of his grandmother’s diamond and remembered the shape and size, he was so sure the diamond was his grandmother’s stolen diamond. He was brought up by his grandmother so he wanted to do something in return for her kindness.

He planned to steal the diamond. When he went to Pacifico Yokohama, he executed the plan. He stole the diamond.

He went back to UK and gave the diamond to his grandmother. He didn’t tell her in detail how he got the diamond.

 

She died three days after.

 

So the diamond is sleeping with her.
