[Age 15]
After a month in Beika, Kurosaki Kaki had a Soul Reaper sword in her right hand and a Quincy cross in her left. Once again forced to explain to a resentful spirit, "I only handle evil spirit exorcisms. I can't do anything about channeling or curses," she resolutely compiled the information about criminals she'd gleaned from the souls of various victims and made her debut as Hagiwara Persimmon, JK Detective.
Kaki, earnestly playing her role: Confess your sins, criminal!
Her classmate Hagiwara, somehow turned into a detective's assistant and having his surname borrowed: Her deerstalker is crooked (but she's so cute).
Her childhood friends Rei and Zero, watching from the TV screen: ... (She is kind of cute.)
[Age 22]
In the police academy cafeteria, while Furuya and Morofushi were stunned by the news that the class representative had a girlfriend, Matsuda, with "Hah, is that all?" written all over his face, pointed at his childhood friend.
Matsuda: This one is married.
Rei and Zero, the class representative: !!!
Hagiwara, instantly the envy of the entire cafeteria: Ehehe~
Matsuda, feeling inexplicably more confident now that his friend was married: His wife is a top student in the University of Tokyo's Faculty of Medicine, with two years left until graduation. She's been solving cold cases as a detective since high school and is very familiar with the professors in the forensic medicine department. Her future postgraduate studies in forensic medicine are practically guaranteed.
Rei and Zero: ... (Why does that description sound like someone we know?)
[Age 29]
Just after submitting her latest academic paper, Kaki received a request for assistance with an investigation from some familiar faces, right on schedule.
Kaki, who had to help in the autopsy room in two hours: I'm a forensic pathologist :)
She'd just purified a Hollow and then heard about the Black Organization's movements from a protected soul.
Hagiwara, who'd worked overtime and couldn't wait to get home and cuddle his wife: I don't want to work overtime... Zero, you've got another case!
[Please note]
- Hagiwara is the romantic pairing.
- The main settings are Beika, Karakura, and Soul Society. The story focuses more on the living world. Characters from other series may appear, but they won't affect this world's setting.
- The heroine is Ichigo's twin sister. Her name is Kaki, pronounced like persimmon, but with a different stress. It's in keeping with the Kurosaki family's naming tradition.
- This blurb was written on December 3, 2023. The old blurb is below.
- Many elements are my own inventions. The characters belong to their original creators. Any plot holes and out-of-character moments are mine.

[Hagiwara's POV]
Is Kurosaki Kaki going to fake her death in the nurse's office again today? Yes.
Has another mysterious small earthquake hit Beika? Yes.
Is she a chuuni, or is she really saving the world? Who knows?
Huh? When did she start crouching on his windowsill?
And openly pointing out his physique, without even covering her eyes when she sees something she shouldn't. He ought to tell a teacher about her
Wait. Is she actually a savior of the world?
That's kind of cool... I think I like her even more...
[Matsuda's POV]
Why does Kurosaki keep asking Hagi to go to the nurse's office with her?
Is it for something legitimate?
But seriously, how does she manage to leave her body?
[Some dark-haired guy who prefers to remain unnamed]
If the tsundere attitude of the Kurosaki girl next door isn't treated, then no matter how much Hiro and I try to give advice, she'll only end up inheriting the family fortune through her career.
Come to think of it, she's a Kurosaki, so why is she the heir to Ishida Hospital?
[A certain warmhearted culinary genius]
It seems that before meeting Mr. Urahara, Zero always thought he was the blond first love Kaki kept talking about...
[Kaki's POV]
Why can't she finish laying the souls of Beika City to rest? She really wants a day off :)
Why can't she finish cutting down the Hollows in Beika City? She really, really wants a day off :)
But still, Shopkeeper Urahara pays way too well

[One]
Hagiwara knew one big secret about his gyaru classmate, Kurosaki Persimmon (Kaki).
Every time she said she had low blood sugar and asked him to take her to the nurse's office, she'd die for a little while.
Her breathing, heartbeat, and all signs of life vanished in an instant. Her body temperature gradually dropped, and if enough time passed, rigor mortis even set in.
The first time he saw it, he was horrified. But just after he called the police, she opened her eyes and told him he was making a fuss over nothing.
After that, he got used to it.
[Two]
One day, Hagiwara suddenly started seeing ghosts.
That night, just after he'd showered and returned to his room, he saw Persimmon dressed in black, crouching on his windowsill with her chin in her hands, muttering to herself and commenting on his physique.
At first, he pretended not to notice her. She only left after half an hour.
But then she came back the next day, then the day after that, and the day after that.
A week later, she came at a very inconvenient time, yet watched with great interest.
He finally lost patience and reached out to cover her eyes.

When Hagiwara went to Soul Society, he was still quite anxious.
After all, it was his first time dying, and he had no experience. Even though the person performing his soul burial was his wife, Hagiwara Kaki, he couldn't help feeling uneasy.
But less than ten minutes after he arrived, the whole street had turned out to welcome him.
The first few people to rush up to him wore white haori. After looking him up and down, they said someone had already made arrangements and packed him off straight away.
In the seventh year of their relationship, he finally learned that his wife's long leave from high school really had been so she could save the world. Twice.
[??]
After secretly helping his fellow officers with their missions for the umpteenth time, Hagiwara couldn't help asking his wife, who was with him: Weren't gods forbidden from influencing the living world?
The woman opposite him looked at him with an expression of utter disdain, just as charmingly as she had when they'd been classmates.
"Who told you that? First of all, there's no such rule. And second, I'm only acting as a proxy."
"Most importantly, you may be dead, but I'm not."
In the tenth year of their relationship, he finally learned that his wife really wasn't lying about her age.
[???]
The first year after Hagiwara finally graduated, started working, and took over his wife's job.
Hagiwara: ...What's going on in Beika Town? Could fewer people die? I want a day off to go on a date.
Kaki: I've been saying that for years, ever since we were students :)
Theme: Face your fate and future bravely
In short, what we are saying is that we cannot let go so easily of someone who smokes without wearing explosion-proof clothing and then casually loses his body and abandons his wife! Give him a good beating and then send him to school! The wedding has been postponed! He has to remember a lot and let him experience the overtime hell without holidays!
Suddenly I feel that this is good, otherwise if Kenji escapes the bento and dies and comes to Soul Society, the 15-year-old Kakiko and the old grandfather Kenji will be very strange.
Mihua big stage, welcome you to come, welcome you to work overtime
Mihua big stage hahahahahahahahaha
These chapters are a bit helpless and funny. It's really nice to be able to solve any problem including life and death.
Silver: So no one really cares about my feelings, right?
Wuhu, thanks to the gift of nature, you can take paid vacation!
What a fool! The punishment is to be stationed at Mihua and work overtime for thirty years!
There is another good friend who has not been persecuted to the point hhhh
