## Background[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Chihaya_Hagiwara&action=edit&section=1 "Edit section: Background")]
She is an assistant inspector from Kanagawa prefecture. She is the older sister of the late Kenji Hagiwara and is also the helper of the [Conan](/wiki/Conan_Edogawa "Conan Edogawa") in [files 1073-1075](/wiki/Volume_101#Hiroshi_Agasa_Abduction_Case "Volume 101").
One time, she could not go to a concert with her friend, [Shinobu Ooe](/wiki/Volume_101#Hiroshi_Agasa_Abduction_Case "Volume 101") because [Jinpei Matsuda](/wiki/Jinpei_Matsuda "Jinpei Matsuda") took apart her phone. They were gonna meet up at a venue and she can't find her without her phone. But, Kenji took her sister, Chihaya to the venue and called out to her friend. Her friend found her and Kenji tells Chihaya "See, I told you, right? There is never any need to give up!". This line was similarly quoted by Conan years later and that was the first time she finds him resembling her late brother.
## Appearance[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Chihaya_Hagiwara&action=edit&section=2 "Edit section: Appearance")]
Chihaya has blonde and very long hair that almost reaches her waist. She has slanted blue eyes and wears pinkish-red lipstick. She is described as very pretty and looks like a 'Goddess of Wind', as quoted by [Ran Mouri](/wiki/Ran_Mouri "Ran Mouri") when she first saw Chihaya.
## Personality[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Chihaya_Hagiwara&action=edit&section=3 "Edit section: Personality")]
She is a kind woman as she saved Conan from falling and helped him in finding [Agasa](/wiki/Hiroshi_Agasa "Hiroshi Agasa"). She seems to come to trust Conan and let him come with her in [1098-1099](/wiki/Chihaya_Hagiwara,_Goddess_of_the_Wind "Chihaya Hagiwara, Goddess of the Wind"), and sees through Conan's Sleeping Kogoro trick in [1115-1116](/wiki/Chihaya_and_Jugo%27s_Matchmaking_Party "Chihaya and Jugo's Matchmaking Party"). She also displayed a flirtatious personality towards [Jugo Yokomizo](/wiki/Jugo_Yokomizo "Jugo Yokomizo") and she doesn't seem to fear him. Despite this, she has shown to have an aggressive side as she used her motorcycle to hit a criminal's face to knock him out and threaten the other criminal. She is also a reckless driver, similar to [Rei Furuya](/wiki/Rei_Furuya "Rei Furuya") and her late brother, [Kenji Hagiwara](/wiki/Kenji_Hagiwara "Kenji Hagiwara") as shown in *[Wild Police Story](/wiki/Wild_Police_Story "Wild Police Story")*.

### Jugo Yokomizo[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Chihaya_Hagiwara&action=edit&section=6 "Edit section: Jugo Yokomizo")]
Both seem to have romantic feelings for each other. For example, when Jugo asked Chihaya if she wanted to go with him for dinner, she turned him down, but then reconsidered. Chihaya doesn't seem to fear him, and Jugo blushed in front of her when she flirted with him.

She comes to trust [Conan](/wiki/Conan_Edogawa "Conan Edogawa") and took him with her. She compares Conan to her younger brother, Kenji. She would always say that if she could repay Conan's favour for reliving her brother’s remorse by disarming her brother's murderer's bomb that even Kenji and Matsuda couldn’t disarm, she would even put her life on the line.
### Kenji Hagiwara[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Chihaya_Hagiwara&action=edit&section=8 "Edit section: Kenji Hagiwara")]
Kenji is her late younger brother. In files 1074-1075, she thinks Conan as her younger brother because they both won't give up.
### Jinpei Matsuda[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Chihaya_Hagiwara&action=edit&section=9 "Edit section: Jinpei Matsuda")]
In file 1075, he appeared as a flashback for fixing Chihaya's broken phone. In file 1085, it is mentioned that Matsuda fell in love with her, and she calls him an idiot. In file 1087, he appeared as a flashback for stopping Shinobu's suicide attempt and saying "Seeing the blood makes it clearer, doesn't it?".
### Shinobu Ooe[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Chihaya_Hagiwara&action=edit&section=10 "Edit section: Shinobu Ooe")]
She is Chihaya's friend.
### Wataru Takagi[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Chihaya_Hagiwara&action=edit&section=11 "Edit section: Wataru Takagi")]
In file 1087, Chihaya thinks of him as Matsuda for doing dangerous things, and appraises him as "instinctively stand in the way of danger to protect what's important to you".

[Conan Edogawa](/wiki/Conan_Edogawa "Conan Edogawa") was saved by Chihaya Hagiwara when the kidnappers try to force him off a highway. She symbolically gets depicted sporting an angel's wings during this act.[](#cite_note-file_1073-1)

She agreed to join in the matchmaking party with her best friend, Shinobu, as the latter didn’t want to go to the event alone. Most of the time she wasn’t even interested in talking with men, as she answered: “Motorbike” to every question she got from Itaru Kabutagi, her answers to those who got another chance to talk to her are just plain cold, making them stunned and unable to give any testimony. However, Anju Tomari, another person that caught men's attention but still jealous of Chihaya, was found dead, and she happened to meet the Mouri family again. After the case is over, she revealed to Jugo, who was taking her home as she wasn’t able to due to drinking, that Shinobu once attempted suicide after being dumped by her boyfriend, only to be stopped by Matsuda in a similar fashion to what Takagi did earlier to stop the culprit from committing suicide. But after noticing Jugo’s injury due to having encountered and beaten a thief who was also a murder before attending the party, she smiled as there is another reckless fool and foul-mouthed like Matsuda, Takagi, referring to Jugo himself.
