I woke up like a cockroach on the soles of my family's shoes.
And on my bed, there was a "person" who looked exactly like me.
It uses my face to call me mom, and it uses my identity to live, so perfect that it is suffocating.
The first one to discover it was my sister.
She didn't say anything, but started searching on the dark web for "how to kill monsters in human skin."
I huddled in the gap in the wall and watched her tremblingly but decisively collecting evidence and walking alone on the edge of the cliff.
I thought it was just a family tragedy.
Until I was in the sewer of the city and touched a piece of blood that was still "talking".
Until I turned into a streetlight and heard two drunk men talking about the "recent statue that moved on its own."
Until I got into the Internet and found thousands of "awakened people" like me who had changed from "people" to "things".
A plague called "Absurdity" is quietly rewriting the world.
And I was the first to open my eyes in this plague.
Sister, don't be afraid.
Wait until I figure out how to transform from a bug into the city itself——
Those "they" who turn you and me into monsters and turn the world into lies,
No one can escape.
