After the private eye detected, he found out the woman and her disappearing sister were the same person because she stolen a bag of jewellery from two bad men. She wanted to take it with her lover away from this place.
I consider that the woman is smart because she asked for a man to detect her sister who has't been in the realistic life and protect herslf. If she was free, she constantly find this man to ask for him to detect her lying. If she was caught by the two men, the detector will come out with and rescue her out.

The lord of obama's mensenger and other stories

There are 5 stories about Japan in this book. The Lord of Obama's Messenger is about a fox which thanked for a lord's help, so it changed to a messenger to help the lord did not fail in the duty. The story of Hoichi's Ears is about a blind who was a musician singing the story about a country destroyed. That's ghosts hope him to sing but the blind didn't know who they were. His friends want to help him away them, so he wrote some powerful words which made ghosts could not see him on all the blind's body without ears. Because of it, the ghosts caught the ears in the end. The Farmer and the Crane is about the crane which thanked for the farmer who had helped it from trap. The crane changed it to be a woman to marry the farmer and made soft clothes sold to people and had money. However, the farmer discovered this secret. The crane flew away. The Golbin's Head is about a monk meeting a ghost which was a woodcutter. Because the monk had listened how to escape this difficulty, he rescued himself. The wise Mother is about a son didn't want his mom who was sixty-year-old to die because of the law of his country. As a result of his mom's wisdom that helped the lord to solve problems, the lord concelled the law.
After reading this book, I liked the last story. Because the son didn't obey this law giving up his mom, he can not only give ideas, this wise mom's old experiences and thoughts to his lord but avoid this country offended and rescue other people nearly sixty years old.

This is an experience about a solicitor who worked for his business. He went to a house which was on an island. The island is connected a causeway which was sank when the tide came. He had lived in this house for some days for work. He always listened bomp sound and looked a woman in black who was a ghost and starred at him when she appeared. He didn't finish his work because of the death which he escaped. In the work time, he found out some story about the pity, single ghost woman and her son who was death. However, there was not a happy ending. The solicitor got married with his first love, and then born a son, but they were killed by the ghost. She caused the accident after the solicitor saw her under a tree. Although the story was not a good ending, I'm admired that the solicitor who insisted on completing his work in a house which owned by the ghost's older sister. If I were him, I could refused the work because I scared ghosts.
