Although she once attributed this situation to some kind of physical defect, or the chaotic electromagnetic field of modern cities affecting her judgment of direction, or unclear municipal planning guidelines...
But when this situation continues to survive tenaciously after time travel, there is only one explanation left:
——Luchi is the highest-level binding attribute derived from the soul. It cannot be destroyed, sold, abandoned, or decomposed.
However, being a fool is not the same as being an idiot.
In fact, there is a lot of evidence showing that most Lu Chi are knowledgeable people.
Before almost every road idiot finally accepts his fate, he will try hard to strengthen himself with knowledge, metaphysics, animal companions, etc., in the hope of breaking the curse left by the world on him.
For example, Elena can skillfully use the angle between the sun and the watch to calculate dimensions and orientation.
She was able to answer without thinking that the solar system is located within the three rings of the Milky Way, and is located on the Orion Arm, a secondary spiral arm between the Centaur Arm and the Perseus Arm.
She could easily determine the sunny south side and the shady north side based on the sparse distribution of truncated tree rings.
Even at night, she could accurately answer the respective positions of the south, east, and west based on the constellations in the sky or the shapes of clouds blown by the monsoon.
Not to mention, as a nature lover, she can even roughly guess the climate zone, altitude range, and geological conditions in which she is located through the surrounding vegetation and biological communities.
but……
She just couldn't find where she was looking!
This is Lu Chi!
For Elena, there is essentially no difference between knowing the name of the aisle she is in, and knowing that the place she is in is called Hogwarts Castle, and knowing that Hogwarts is located somewhere in the Scottish Highlands.
"So, should I be lucky that I was able to identify the right direction to Salzburg?"
Grindelwald folded his arms and leaned against a familiar three-way intersection, looking at the white-haired dumpling in front of him with a funny look on his face and said.
"This is the first time I've heard that there are students at Hogwarts who don't even know how to get to the dining hall."
This is the third time that he has returned to the starting point. No matter how much the white-haired dumpling in front of him tries to quibble, he will never be deceived again.
During this period of time, Grindelwald partially understood the secrets contained in Hogwarts Castle - such as the abandoned bathroom filled with uneasy gray fog, the unmodified dungeon that echoed with strange whispers, and the
Warehouses full of decaying potion materials, empty classrooms with questionable tissues randomly discarded...
You know, in the magic castle, the paths are sometimes not limited to those visible to the naked eye. Grindelwald, who has a superb sense of magic, and Elena, whose intuition is second only to magical creatures, can always find those hidden things.
Behind the stone wall, the curtain looks like a "shortcut" leading in the right direction.
The two Dark Lords, one old and one young, relied on their own strength to naturally shuttle around the castle at will without any scruples, walking the shortest distance according to their intuition.
——Then after going through an exciting journey of dozens of minutes that can be called exploring the castle, I went back to a strange and familiar starting point again. Well... maybe I need to add the word "again".
Grindelwald finally understood why when Elena was in Nurmengard Castle, every time Elena went out, whenever it involved moving between floors, she would forcefully drag him out for a walk together - and in a beautiful name.
Maintain an appropriate amount of exercise every day to avoid fat accumulation.
Perhaps the main reason is that you are afraid that if you accidentally get lost, you will never be able to find your way back to the bedroom, right?
"Haha, then you can tell me how to go? I just said that you can find the direction by walking through the stone wall, wasn't it you - Grandpa?!"
Elena raised her head, rolled her eyes at the "unrelated grandpa" who was making sarcastic remarks next to her, and said angrily.
"Since everyone is a fool, let's not shirk responsibility from each other in this situation where there are no outsiders."
It makes sense that birds of a feather flock together and people flock together.
The world is fair, and if you have outstanding magical abilities, you sometimes have to pay some other price in exchange - such as a relatively weak sense of direction.
"Don't compare me to you. If it weren't for the magic restrictions in this castle, it would only take a simple apparation to reach the destination."
Grindelwald's face froze, and he snorted coldly, his face full of displeasure.
"After all, who asked to leave the classroom door?! You should reflect on yourself!"
Because Dumbledore still had to discuss some follow-up course adjustments and some additional instructions with Snape, Elena and "Mr. Otto" were naturally temporarily invited outside the classroom.
Then……
"Why don't we go to the school auditorium first? Unknowingly, I'm a little hungry." - Elena said.
In classic French cuisine, it is quite reasonable for [Baked Snails with Cheese] to be used as an appetizer before a banquet.
Just the right amount of protein temptation, coupled with cheese and parsley that can stimulate hunger in the stomach and mouth to the greatest extent, can indeed fully awaken the memory of hunger.
Grindelwald, who was already a little hungry, naturally readily agreed to Elena's proposal, and chose to leave Dumbledore and Snape behind, and headed to the auditorium first.
but--
Who would have thought that this "rising star in the wizarding world" who could rob the Potions Professor's office and ransack the central kitchen of Hogwarts like a whirlwind, would actually be a hopeless street idiot.
What's more important is that Elena is still the king of the Lu Chi world.
You know, the scary thing about Lu Chi is not that she can get lost alone, but that she can make a whole group of people follow her and get lost - even if 99% of them are humans with normal sense of direction.
.
Moreover, the remarks of such people are often full of temptation!
"According to probability..."
When encountering a fork in the road for the first time, Elena made a flawless reasoning - it is very scientific to guide the way based on probability, but most road idiots will always accurately trigger low-probability events...
"I think this road is more familiar. If nothing else happens, I should walk through it..."
Of course, after returning to the same place twice in a row, this argument can no longer be falsified - it is indeed very familiar.
"Are you sure you made the right choice? If I remember correctly, this should be your first time coming to Hogwarts, right?"
This was Elena's subconscious question when Grindelwald tried to point in another direction. It was really not because she was sure.
"Shut up, let me judge the direction next." Grindelwald said when he returned to the starting point for the first time.
Unfortunately, even if Grindelwald led the way for the third time, the two of them still returned to the starting point...
"How about you ask Professor Dumbledore for help? You must have some magical magic to call each other."
Elena rubbed her almost hungry belly and looked at Grindelwald aside with a sad face.
The underground buildings at Hogwarts are really scary, so is there really no place for missing people in this school?
"One last try."
Grindelwald's eyes twitched, he must be late for the auditorium now.
With Albus's character, although he wouldn't say anything, he would definitely laugh at him silently in his heart.
"Speaking of which, I seem to hear some strange noises in the left direction. Let's go in this direction this time."
