      In [\textit{A. Haynes} and \textit{J. Marklof}, ``A five distance theorem for Kronecker sequences'', Preprint, \url{arXiv:2009.08444}], a natural generalization of the Three Gap Theorem to the higher dimensional Kronecker sequence is considered. It is proved that a generic multi-dimensional Kronecker attains the maximal possible number of different gap lengths for every sub-exponential subsequence. In this paper, in order to do one specific type of generalization of Three Gap Theorem, multi-dimensional Kronecker sequences are considered in dimension \(d\in\{2,3\}\), which have a surprisingly small number of nearest neighbor distances for infinitely many \(N\in\mathbb N\). The construction is simple and relies on the continued fraction expansion.
