Dorothy murmured to herself that now her "lamp" had only 1 point of spiritual accumulation and 3 points of storage, so she only had 4 "lamps" at a time, so she didn't want to mess around at all. Besides, for an association of a certain scale like the Afterbirth Wolf Blood Society, their anti-divination resources were profound. Although she did not have the advantage of divination, her foundation was still a little lacking. Although she could rely on cleverly designed divination rituals to get around anti-divination, the complexity of the ritual design was also limited. The level of design she used to find sponsors for the letter numbers was already the limit of the ritual complexity. If she added more things to it, the ritual would become bloated and ineffective.
A while ago, her behavior of speculating on "Qi" caused turbulence in the entire Tivian divination product market. Not only "Qi", but now even the prices of "Lamp" and "Shadow" have been speculated up. After Dorothy bought 3 "Lamps" last time, the price of "Lamps" began to rise all at once. Now the price of "Lamp" storage is several times higher than before, almost more than one thousand pounds per piece. In order not to lose money, Dorothy decided to wait until the price of "Lamp" drops a little before buying it.
"Well... if possible, it would be better to find someone without fortune-telling, but now there is no clue at all... what should I do?"
Dorothy folded her hands over her chest and fell into deep thought. After pondering for a long time, she decided to look through Darlene's memory to see if she could find any details.
This time, Dorothy did not focus on Davic's conversation, but instead on various details about him, trying to find some other clues.
And this time, she gained something.
"The dust on this guy's clothes looks familiar..."
Dorothy murmured as she opened her eyes. She recalled the image of Davic in Darlene's eyes. When he first appeared, Davic was wearing a thick coat, and there seemed to be a layer of fine black ash on his clothes and shoes.
Dorothy recognized this black ash; it was coal ash... In the Coal Ash District, the largest coal mining distribution center in Tivian, people often had coal ash on their bodies. Last time, Dorothy and Adele were looking for Darlene in the Coal Ash District and were ambushed by the werewolf Alex. They had been entangled with him and the Security Bureau in the Coal Ash District for quite some time, so Dorothy was very familiar with this kind of fallen ash.
'So... Davek lives in the Coal Ash District?'
Dorothy had such an idea in her mind, but it was quickly denied.
"No... The coal ash area is in the West City, and according to the information we got from Greg, this Davik seems to be active in the South City. Moreover, in Darlene's dozen or so memories about Davik, not every one of them has dust on his body. About half of them are not dusty and are wearing relatively clean clothes. If you live in the coal ash area, you will get dusty when you go out, and this phenomenon will not happen..."
Dorothy continued to think, and rejected the speculation that Davic lived in the coal ash area. However, she also found that the dust on Davic's body was indeed a clue, so she began to continue reasoning based on this clue.
"Although Davik doesn't live in the Coal Ash Area, the dust that often falls on his body may still come from the Coal Ash Area. As long as we figure out the pattern of the dust falling on his body, we may be able to find the connection between him and the Coal Ash Area..."
Dorothy thought about this, and then began to carefully observe the pattern of dust on Davic's body in more than a dozen memory scenes. She found that when Davic was wearing thick clothes, there was a higher chance of dust on his body. When he was wearing thin clothes such as shirts, his body was cleaner and less dusty.
"Hiss... So, there's more dust on my body when it's cold, and less dust when it's hot? That's interesting..."
Dorothy smiled and murmured. After discovering this pattern, she had a very clear idea in her mind. She closed her eyes and recalled the many secular books she had read in the library of Guanda University. Among these books, there was one called "Pritt's Geography".
Dorothy recalled what she had read in "Geography of Plitt". Plitt is an island country that faces the mainland across the sea. It has three main islands, one large and two small. The climate is relatively mild throughout the year. The temperature difference is not too big but still obvious. It is windy in autumn and winter, less windy in spring and summer, and the westerly wind prevails throughout the year...
"There are many winds in autumn and winter, few winds in spring and summer, and the westerly wind prevails throughout the year..."
Sitting on the sofa, Dorothy murmured the words in "Pritt's Geography". Then she raised her eyebrows and compared the information with the pattern of dust falling on Davic's body. The answer became obvious.
The coal dust on Davik's body was blown away from the coal dust area by the wind, so it sometimes appears and sometimes disappears. Due to the characteristics of Priit that it is windy in autumn and winter but less windy in spring and summer, there is more dust on Davik's thick clothes in the colder and windy seasons, and less dust on Davik's thin clothes in the hotter seasons with less wind.
What's more important is that westerly winds prevail in Pritt all year round, which means that when Tivian doesn't have wind magic to mess things up, the winds that blow are basically westerly winds.
Thinking of this, Dorothy immediately stood up, then opened the magic box, and took out a large folded paper from it. After unfolding it, a large Pratt map appeared. Then, Dorothy spread the map on the ground, and then found the location of the coal ash area on the west side of the map.
Westerly wind refers to the wind blowing from west to east. For example, a large amount of coal ash in the coal ash area is blown up by the wind and floats eastward, and in the process it is indeed possible to fall on the southern urban area.
Dorothy took out a ruler and pencil, and drew two lines from the coal ash area to the east to frame an area, representing the direction and range where the coal ash in the coal ash area would drift and fall if blown away by the westerly wind. The place where this range overlaps with the southern city area might be the location of Davik's base.
Soon, Dorothy successfully identified the area, which was a not-too-large area in the northern part of the South City.
Looking at the circled area on the map, Dorothy breathed a sigh of relief. Finally... she had narrowed the target area to a small enough range.
"Huh... Looks like I need to go visit this place tomorrow..."
Looking at the area she had circled on the map, Dorothy stroked her chin and murmured.
…
The South City area is the largest slum in Tivian and has some of the most chaotic and worst living conditions in Tivian.
Since Tivian's industrial areas are mainly located in the southern suburbs, the southern end of the southern city is home to a large number of industrial population and has more serious pollution than the coal ash area.
To the north of the South City, in the triangular area slightly closer to Yueliu River and Wangcheng, the situation in the Basket Block Area is slightly better. However, the residents here also have their own troubles. The coal dust often blown in from the coal ash area in the west has greatly reduced the living environment of the residents here.
In the morning, on a street somewhere in the Basket District of Tivian South City, an ordinary gray carriage stopped here. In the carriage, Dorothy opened the window to look outside, and then a gust of wind blew in, and the coal dust in it choked her mouth.
“Cough… cough cough cough… yes, it’s here…”

I feel like I might need to take a day or two off to rest and adjust my work and rest schedule as usual.
