Hmm. Would that have helped, or just made her that much more angry? It might be something to try.
Name drop Anri to Hijiri? She probably can't be manipulating Anri if she doesn't know about her story.

Skeleton vote:
[X] Do something to force Yuuri to pay attention to us. Call her by her real name? Yuuri hasn't actually dropped the connection with us, so she should actually be hearing what we're saying.
-[X] Give Yuuri allllll the deats about what Hijiri is telling us about her. That she's a maniac. That she's obsessed.
--[X] We're pretty convinced that's not what's going on. Friend died, she wished over it, hates the Pleiades because of it... that sound closer to right? Certainly sounds closer to sane.
---[X] If she doesn't respond just start playing Navi over the line.

Not going to lie, I'm tempted. Just keep poking her until she starts screaming at us, that'd definitely get us information.
Oooh, I have an idea! Let's bring the memory device back, slap it against the back wall of the MOF to barely catch Hijiri in the radius! Hijiri-Ally get some respite from the screaming angry person, Hijiri-Hostile screwed up and gave us an excuse to cut her off from telepathy, and if we don't announce it we can test whether it actually cuts off telepathy or if Hijiri-Hostile is making stuff up. Yes, I like this idea.

Privacy device instead?

I assume you can't telepathy someone who's blocking your connection, so we can't literally Navi at Yuuri. 
If we get, say, one shot at getting a rise out of Yuuri, we can, like, ask her why she killed her best friend. :|

That would hide Hijiri from us, if we want to still try to telepathy Yuuri.

I'd prefer not to cut Hijiri off from us. Also would have to ask Kazumi or Sayaka to throw it up, which might be a bit of a hassle. Using the memory device also gives us a way to test whether the memory device is actually cutting off telepathy as claimed.

Oh, and, which tracking plan will we implement, then?
Let's say we grab everyone and go to Kazumi's place, ask Mami to make breakfast while Mami and Sabrina work on the tracking: Implement the Ribbon+Grief Sensor+Soul Contact plan.
While Kazumi's busy cooking, Mami extends her ribbons across Asunaro. At the same time, Sabrina makes Grief Sensing Devices, as many as possible.
Once done, Sabrina uses her magic through Mami's ribbons, and sends the Sensors through some of the Ribbons, and uses that to try and find Yuuri.
Both Mami and Sabrina would be unmovilized, but we'd have everybody else around to keep an eye on her and on Yuuri.
Also, Hijiri at the Pleiades' table for breakfast.

It occurs to me that, if this situation is close enough to canon, a peaceful way to maybe solve things would be for the Pleiades to show regret regarding the real Yuuri's fate.
But that's not called for, since KB's the guilty party there, as usual. So it would be an act.
...
If we want to draw Yuuri, and we get one more shot at telepathy, we could say something that'd really, and I mean really would piss her off, then hang up on her.
[Q] Ask Oriko for tips on how to royally piss off someone.

Sure, but what's the follow up?
Because unless we namedrop and then take control of the conversation somehow, I foresee Yuuri getting even more pissed off, and even less likely to talk.
Maybe if she wasn't already flipping out...
As it is, should we try to get her attention now, or save the namedropbomb for a later time? If now, I guess the goal is still to meet up with Yuuri.
... Maybe go the extra mile, and tell Yuuri something Oriko-level cryptic, like 'I know what really happened. Come to where your friend died; I'll be waiting for you,' and hope Yuuri's flipping hard enough to actually go.
As it is, Yuuri's already seems to have decided we're in the enemy camp, so I doubt she'll be open to meeting up, namedrop or not.

So the other question is why she's screaming at Hijiri instead of at us.
[] Use the memory device to cut Hijiri off from telepathy again. It should work through the wall of the MOF.
[] Miss Hijiri says you're deranged. Do you want a chance to defend yourself?

Because she thinks Hijiri sold her out... which she kinda did.

fite me
Let's angrily scream the German script of Faust at her constantly until we beat her up or she agrees to talk, whichever comes first.
Sabrina's multitasking powers save the day again!

Well, Hijiri did put us in contact.
Maybe Yuuri feels betrayed... which works whether either of them was the one pulling the strings, I think.
If you mean why she isn't yelling at us, Yuuri's smart enough to not give up her game, perhaps. Canonically, she does set up traps and plots, and strikes by surprise. She spies, uses disguises, prepares explosive runes this morning, sets up electric force fields...
I'd say she knows to not talk to a likely enemy.
She only dropped a butthurt comment at the end, which from my reading is totally her letting us know we're now enemies... or something else, I don't know.
...
Oh, and in the case the Incubator telepathy does allow for spam... which I don't think would make sense, since that sounds like a perfect vector of attack nobody seems to use... can Sabrina abuse multitasking to spam Yuuri's mental inbox a bajillion times a second?

...or, you know, just a freaking lie detector. Like I've been suggesting.
[X] Make a Grief-construct lie detector. If possible, make it able to tell whether a given statement is partially true but misleading, technically true but misleading, a total lie, or withholding some information but not misleading.
[X] Question Hijiri--nothing personal, but we need to be sure: was she coordinating with Yuuri at any point since you met her (if so, how)? Has she misled us in any way or omitted any significant information about herself, her actions, or anything regarding Yuuri?
[X] Propose an idea to Mami: using her ribbons to extend your range, create magic-sensing constructs every 100-meters or so, covering the whole city if time permits.
[X] Telepathy-call Yuuri, calling her her original name. Explain that she doesn't actually understand the full picture of what happened to her friend.

Either "why did you say that" or "why do you say that".
You guys should channel Oriko. What's the point of having meta-knowledge if you don't ever get to act like an annoying, cryptic know-it-all?
Talk to her about how we know about her and the real Yuuri. That we know what she did for her and how much she meant to her. Empathize and/or show sympathy. She's not really wrong to be angry, even if it is misplaced and crossing lines. Being nice, compassionate, and understanding does seem to solve a lot of problems when dealing with people. Even if it may take a while and can feel like pulling teeth.
One more thing, though. Have you guys thought about what Airi was looking for? Hijiri said that the clear seed wasn't what she was look for despite taking it. Could she have been looking for the real Yuuri's grief seed possibly? Do you guys know what Yuuri's Witch name was? If the Pleiades Saints still have then that could be a way to further talk to her. Or she could be after something else completely different. Not sure how long ago Yuuri's Witch got killed.

I forget precisely how much she thought the Saints knew about her, and should clearly reread, but I think it's worth pointing out the paranoid conclusion Anri might have to us trying this:
Of course we know of Asuka Yuuri. We're a dastardly specialist called in by 'those girls' to help them (choose any) further persecute her/defend themselves from her righteous rage. This just proves how in deep we are with them.
Clearly, befitting our nature as the end of history made flesh, we should keep contacting her while mentally playing the Sonic Recreation of the End of the World.
