Given their skills, she and Matthew could easily catch their shadow, but what would that accomplish?

These stalkers were likely just low-level lackeys following orders and capturing them wouldn't give them any useful information. It just wasn't worth the trouble.

As for why they didn't take the car they came in, it was because they had borrowed the Miracle. If that car was spotted, the Messenger would likely connect the dots back to them and figure out Matthew's identity. If they wanted to avoid any ties to the Unity Circle, it was best to keep their identities under wraps.
