Later, Chaisi would think that he only survived that day for two main reasons.
First, the bullets suspended in mid-air had suddenly accelerated. Though still lethal, they lacked the high pressure of ignited gunpowder. In terms of kinetic energy and speed, they were ultimately no match for a bullet actually fired from a gun. If those bullets had come from a handgun within ten meters, not even three of him could have escaped being pierced through.
The second reason was Uncle Kai's warning.
Before Chaisi could even get a clear look at the situation on the hillside, Uncle Kai had already spotted him.
If Uncle Kai had shouted half a second later, the bullet, no matter how slow, would have been enough to drill into his forehead.
