I noticed the resemblance to the umbrella as well, but it was hard to tell from watching the intro. To be fair to 73, it is possible Neo wasn't actively looking for Cinder. She is on a most-wanted list. Plausible that Neo reached the same conclusions as Qrow in Volume 3 or actually knew where Cinder was from so it just meant heading to Mistral.
