The File of Young Kindaichi (1997 ) Episode 26

Hajime is on the run, now wanted for four murders, and he is sheltered by Cameraman Kiyonori Hariu who gives Hajime photos of the murder scenes and blueprints of Tachibana's villa. Hajime heads back to Karuizawa with Inspector Shigeru Nagashima in pursuit and Hajime jumps from the train into a river to escape. He is found and taken in by Aoi Hanamura who feels sorry for him. Hajime locates Nonaka at the nearby Yunosawa Hotel, but it is a trap laid by Akechi and Nagashima. However, Hajime sees Nonaka leave by a side door, lured by a false message. Hajime warns her to be careful, but she is later attacked and killed by the true culprit. Before he runs away, Hajime scribbles a note for Akechi and runs into the kitchen of the hotel. Appearing desperate, Hajime takes a woman hostage at knifepoint and Akechi shoots him and Hajime falls to the ground unconscious. In the ambulance, Hajime reveals to his friends that his message asked Akechi to shoot him with a blank bullet and he then spread tomato juice on his shirt when Akechi shot him in order to deceive and catch the real culprit. They all travel to Tachibana's villa where Hajime reviews the evidence.
