Walkthrough

1
Research at Oakmont Chronicle: Fred believes smugglers use coded ads in the Oakmont Chronicle. Research 'Salvation Harbor' advertisements. The correct choices are: PERIOD - AFTER THE FLOOD, PEOPLE - JOURNALISTS, SECTION - ADVERTISEMENTS, DISTRICT - SALVATION HARBOR.
2
Visit Seven Oaks Bar: Head to the Seven Oaks Bar in Western Salvation Harbor (Calmshore St and Salvation Rd). Speak to the Bartender.
3
Dialogue at Seven Oaks Bar: Select options related to leaving the city and Toothless Bob's wake. Choose between 'I worked for Throgmorton' or 'Maybe I can do you a favor?'. End with 'Farewell.'
4
Accept Bartender's Favor: The bartender offers a side mission to check on a late courier in Western Grimhaven Bay (Levi Coffin Ave, near Marsh Ave).
5
Investigate Courier's Location: Travel to the courier's last known location. Avoid the infested area by approaching from the northeast.
6
Combat Wylebeasts: Expect Wylebeasts (Stygians, Lethians, Cocitians) in the warehouse. Cocitians have a weak spot on their backs, vulnerable after they lunge.
7
Find Key Evidence: In the basement, find wheel tracks, blood stains, a skeleton tied to a pipe, a gas can on a crate, and whiskey bottles behind an illusory wall.
8
Retrocognition: After finding all evidence, use Retrocognition near the basement stairs to reveal the next clue.

Tips

When fighting Cocitians, wait for their lunge and then shoot the vulnerable bulges on their backs.
The courier's destination is near an infested area, but you can reach it without entering the infested zone by approaching from the northeast.
Be cautious of Wylebeasts spawning in hidden or boarded-up rooms even after initial clearing.
