Even when Ivanna said it, it sounded ridiculous. No one would believe it.
"It's not just you. Even I find it hard to believe. I've thought about it many times before but always dismissed it. But this time, I'm certain."
I looked at her. "You probably remember me telling you I can't recall my childhood and adolescence, right? There's a gap in my memories, and it wasn't until my sophomore year that I started remembering. I suspect that the missing memories are related to Atlas."
"My gosh, wouldn't that be too miraculous? No, no, no... This isn't miraculous-it's eerie!"
When Ivanna said this, her expression was comical, but I couldn't bring myself to laugh.
"Don't laugh. It's true. Do you believe that there are people who can shapeshift in our real lives?" I asked her.
"Shapeshift?" Ivanna let out a small scream. "I know makeup can be powerful, but shapeshift? I've heard of it, but I've never seen it. Is that all just a legend? Why do you encounter such bizarre things?" Ivanna waved her hands in disbelief.
"But this is a real thing. You saw Carina turn around on the surveillance footage last night, right?"
"Yeah! I saw it. What's the matter? Don't tell me it's a disguise! That was Carina, right? How could it be someone else? How do you make a disguise?" Ivanna pressed me, her eyes wide.
"You're right. It's a disguise!" I interrupted her, nodding firmly. "At first, I doubted it too. That was indeed Carina!"
"But that face wasn't Carina's at all. It was a kind of mask, something extremely close to the human face. It was made to look like Carina!" I explained. I hadn't seen it myself, but the image was vivid. Ivanna fell silent, listening intently.
"Initially, I didn't believe it either. I overheard an eyewitness account when I went to the bathroom this morning. She claimed to have seen a man in black dragging a person in sportswear into a room. Then her clothes were thrown into the sea!
"And something resembling a mask was thrown into the sea with them! Do you know what that was? It was a disguise!"
