Anachronox Hints
Take pictures of suspicious people.
1 of 6: Mardoman will ask you to check up on Yerocan after you deliver the blueprints. When you do, he asks you to take a picture of any suspicious people in the Fountain Spiral area.
2 of 6: Wander around all the paths and talk to everyone.
3 of 6: The person isn't going to just tell you he's a spy, but you should notice that someone seems to be making an excuse for why he's hanging around.
4 of 6: To be more specific, try looking in the paths near the Fountain Spiral itself, at the very top part of this map area.
5 of 6: One guy there will tell you, after a bit of hesitation, that he's waiting for his wife.
6 of 6: That's the spy. Take his picture with your camera and then return to Yerocan to show him the picture. When you have the right picture, Yerocan will welcome you to the resistance, give you an Eluder Band, and send you back to talk to Mardoman.
