IF this cured his curse, great. This sorceror guy wanted to study it, figure out how it was done and stuff. He MIGHT be able to cure it, and that was the operative word there - might. Until this guy knew how it worked, he wouldn't be able to say.
So Ranma was to meet this guy at a particular spot today, the sorcerer saying something about having to get supplies and various preparations ready. Having absolutely no idea about this magic stuff - he accepted that this was possible.
As to why Ranma was sneaking - if he got his curse cured THEN he'd tell people about it. Otherwise it would turn into a mess like the last few times he'd gone after a cure and all he'd be left with was the blame. Nope. Not gonna tell ANYONE!

Of course, Ranma sneaking was other people's clue that something was up.
Ryoga, oddly enough, had it right. Ranma must be sneaking after a cure. So Ryoga had tried to follow Ranma. So he had what was up correct, but ended up in Akihabara.
Akane saw Ranma sneaking off and just KNEW it involved Shampoo. Or Ukyo. Or even Kodachi! Uhm. No. That wasn't very likely. Well, she'd just sneak AFTER him.

Nabiki knew something was up the moment Ranma went all sneaky. Well, she'd just follow along and use this for blackmail later.
Kasumi followed along because she had to go to the market anyway and was kind of bored. Of course, because she had followed Ryoga, she was now in Akihabara.
The two fathers followed along because they were following Akane who was following Ranma.

Shampoo saw Ranma, Akane, Nabiki, and two fathers sneaking along. Well, actually she saw Genma and then tried to see what he was sneaking up on. It ended up with her sneaking along behind them.
Mousse saw Shampoo sneaking off and snuck off to find out what she was up to. Unfortunately, he was currently sneaking along and following Tatewaki Kuno.
Tatewaki Kuno was wondering why he had the feeling someone was watching him, and eventually decided he was being spied on by Akane and/or the Pigtailed Girl. Naturally he puffed up his chest as he went on his shopping expedition.

Kodachi was bored. Bored bored bored bored BORED. She was having one of her more lucid moments, helped along by the fact that she'd accidently discovered a particular plant extract seemed to aid memory retention and the ability to organize facts. Seeing a giant panda wearing a Hawaiian floral-print shirt, trying to hide behind someone she recognized as Soun Tendo, she was wondering if there weren't some severe side effects from that plant extract after all.

Ranma checked around, making sure that nobody had followed him, then quickly ran up the stairs of a shrine and ducked into an office.
