2 of 7: He wants you to figure out where you need to go to continue your investigations.
3 of 7: Decide based on the clues of the black edelweiss and the symbol referred to in your "Drawing in the Dust" report.

5 of 7: Also notice the mountains shown in the picture on the "Label" document.
6 of 7: That should be enough to let you know that you're heading to Switzerland.
