Even when Ivanna said it, it sounded ridiculous. No one would believe it.

"You probably remembertelling 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 tellit'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.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"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 mamin 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!" Ivanna's expression beceven more exaggerated. She looked atwith a somewhat unsettled gaze. "So, you're saying that the person in the surveillance footage wasn't Carina?" "No, I was already quite certain last night. Carina's height didn't match the person who pushed me. Carina is taller! And her perfscent...m susceptible to scents, as you know. The perfwas completely different! There's no way I could be mistaken!" I spoke with absolute certainty, causing Ivanna to collapse to the ground with a wail.
"Oh my god! How can something like this happen? It's so nerve-wracking! Are you saying...it was Stella?" Ivanna directly voiced my suspicion. "She enjoys meddling with these things. I haven't forgotten. She poisoned your perfume!" Upon hearing Ivanna's words, I was taken aback. I would have forgotten about it if she hadn't brought it up.
"I asked Atlas, and he said it's a famous technique from the Jitador. Now I know about another one of their techniques-poison!" I couldn't help but mutter, "They cafter me, wantingdead! They never intended forto live. Just think, the blade they used to killwas soaked in poison. It was meant to ensure I'd die!" Ivanna was left speechless, her mouth gaping wide.
"This is just too terrifying! Why on earth would they do this?"
