Chapter 261: The battle in the corridor × The old man
Should he go in?
The answer was yes. Joey had already realized that Hisoka was also using an open stratagem, one that would ensure he located the Ai Yi Yi Family's base.
Once he chose to break into the base from outside, its location would inevitably be exposed completely.
But if he did not enter and deal with the signal blocking and the hacker, his phone would be left with very little functionality.
Although the signal blocking only covered a limited area, the transmission of information had been cut off entirely.
To solve this problem, Joey would have to enter the Ai Yi Yi Family's base.
If he did not want to expose the Ai Yi Yi Family, he could enter the base through Room No. 3101. But the Gasha-A Family and the Phantom Troupe were blocking that route, leaving him with only one option: breaking in from outside.
Everything formed a closed loop.
After thinking it all through, Joey also understood that the signal blocking was probably an ability of the Ai Yi Yi Family. Although the hacker might not belong to the family, breaking into their base was the key to finding clues to the hacker.
Having located the Ai Yi Yi Family, Joey controlled his clone and began cautiously approaching Room No. 3321.
Hisoka must have had some purpose in doing this.
And what could that purpose be? The possibility Joey could think of was dealing with the Phantom Troupe's members.
Judging from his earlier contact with the Phantom Troupe, their members would not split up now, no matter what tricks he and Hisoka pulled.
In addition, having his phone constantly blocked gave Joey a suspicion: could Hisoka impersonate him and send text messages to Kurapika?
