It's been clearly confirmed that Shiro is the Wretched Egg/the Red Man in the manga. Because of the inhuman experience, a second personality was born in Shiro's mind, this being the Wretched Egg. Technically, they're two different entities, but to keep it simple, it can be stated that Shiro is actually both herself and the Wretched Egg.
