The plan was to split up and find Shaoqing and Sora. The boy who was helping them, who they learned was called Leon, told them to meet at his hideout partially up the mountains. Once Seiji had the bearings of the coordinates, he took off again in search of Sora. He used a talisman as a compass, making sure not to get lost.
He spent a little over an hour searching when he heard Leon's voice coming from a few meters away. "WAIT SO YOU KIDNAPPED HIM??" Seiji stopped in his tracks, leaning against the tree so he could clearly hear what he was saying. "Okay okay so- you took him back and- okay okay I'll just turn these guys away then! I- wait what do you mean don't turn- OH YOU WANT ME TO KIDNAP THEM TOO??..... What do you mean this isn't kidnapping?"
Seiji raised his eyebrows before walking out from behind him with his arms crossed. He tilted his head to the side, watching as Leon froze and stumbled with his phone. "So tell me right now where you guys took my brother," he said.
