## Biography

### Ron Kamonohashi's Homecoming Case

Billie takes Minigozzi to class along with her other pet even though she is not meant to. During Totomaru Isshiki's lesson, Minigozzi jumps on his face.

The next day, Billie brings Minigozzi with her to BLUE again. Minigozzi crawls all over its owner's body and head.

### Cryptid Serial Murders Case

Later, when everyone is panicking that they are locked inside the school with a killer apparently on the loose, Minigozzi comforts Marsh Leipley by jumping on his head and petting him. After Marsh thanks the monkey, Minigozzi returns to Billie.

While Toto and Ron Kamonohashi investigate Aimee Emmerich's office and laptop with Marsh's help, the other students leave to roam around the school. Although Minigozzi is usually with Billie, Ron, Toto, Marsh, and the guard find the monkey alone in a corridor after they hear Billie scream. Ron and the others then discover Udy Dietner's corpse in the courtyard.

In the evening, Minigozzi seeks out Toto and Hutter Horn in a basement room. It jumps at Toto and guides him, Hutter, and later Ron and Night Bran Jr. as well to the locker room. There, they find Billie, who went missing earlier, inside a water-filled locker. They can rescue her, but quickly realize that another murder occurred elsewhere that they could not prevent. Ron and Night eventually manage to figure out that Billie is the culprit behind the murders and staged her own attack. By that time, Billie has already kidnapped and tied up Alissa Beaumont though, and Minigozzi pets her head while Billie prepares to drain Alissa of her blood.

Minigozzi stays by Alissa's side until Totomaru, Ron, and the others come to confront Billie. The monkey then quickly jumps to its owner before Billie escapes. Hutter and Toto manage to catch her though, and Billie is subsequently arrested. Minigozzi is not with Billie though when she is taken away on a paddy wagon. Still, Minigozzi is back with its owner later on after Billie escaped and removed her disguise.
