The primary objective of this mission was to show the Security Bureau that Li Pan had been busy with so many things recently, like dealing with Tokugawa and fighting Oda. Those were all tasks assigned by the company and had nothing to do with him personally. Everyone must believe this.
Therefore, Li Pan specially brought Yamazaki Rei along, arranged for him to disguise himself as a tourist mountaineer, infiltrated the private land, carried a pocket watch, searched for the Water Dao of the 'Fountain of Youth' everywhere, and collected samples of flora and fauna for analysis.
As for himself, he was on an official expense-paid trip, soaking in the hot springs at the sanatorium.
