Key: off.

Checking behind.

Get off.

Sidestand deployed.

Handlebars all the way to the left.

Pretty sure that pose is a demerit.

Minowa Hijiri passed her motorcycle license!

Bakuon!!

Maid!!

Bakuon!!

Maid!!

Maid!!

Morning!

Good morning.

Morning.

Good morning!

Good morning.

Morning.

Morning Hijiri!

You've leveled up into a real motorcycle rider now!

Something is different today, can you tell?

What?

No training wheels!

Ooh! You graduated your training wheels too!

I wouldn't want to drop my bike.

Ducati are equipped with a system that retracts the sidestand automatically.

Racer models don't have a sidestand in the first place.

She'll have to be careful now that she has her license.

Hijiri got used to her training wheels,

so she'll have to be especially careful from now on to avoid dropping her bike because she forgot the stand.

That's true.

Well,

don't just take it from me!

For I am now a state-approved licensed rider!

Alright, alright.

Still, Hayakawa was a lot of help for getting your license Hijiri.

I guess.

He supervised me on the mock training course he set up behind the mansion.

He helped me prepare for my lessons 3 hours per day too...

Well, in the end it was all the result of your efforts.

Yeah, I guess so.

That's true.

It was all you, Hijiri!

T-that's right.

Huh?

What's that noise?

That's Hayakawa's sidecar.

By the way its seat height is 770mm.

Hayakawa?

I have come to pick you up, Lady Hijiri.

Pick her up?

Hijiri came with her Cub this morning though.

Yeah.

Milady, now that you've acquired your license and your motorcycle is delivered tomorrow,

my role is coming to an end.

Today, for the last time, would you do me the honor of riding in my sidecar?

Okay, let's do it.

I'll go get my things.

That reminds me, you were a beginner rider like Hijiri once too, Hayakawa!

Hahaha, that's a long time ago.

After the last war, I had the opportunity to ride motorcycles during my internment in Siberia.

When you say the last war, you mean the Honda/Yamaha War?

Tai Hei You

I have a photo from back then.

Look.

I was around 12 years old.

Huuh! I can see the resemblance!

Cute!!

It feels odd to look at a younger version of an older person.

Who's the other one with you?

Aah... That was...

Who was it again...

Hayakawa never wanted to tell me anything about this.

Woah, suspicious.

He's always been single, maybe this girl has something to do with it...?

It's possible.

Now then Lady Hijiri, shall we?

Yes.

Well, farewell everyone!

Hijiri and Hayakawa are really close.

Well, like a butler and his lady.

It's almost like a grandfather and his grandkid.

What about the Cub Hijiri rode here?

That's Hayakawa for you.

Never any mistakes.

Now that Milady can go anywhere with her bike, what will I ever do with all my newfound free time...

Maybe I could teach riding technique courses for females some time in the future.

In the future...?

Hayakawa, don't wait too long or you won't have the energy for riding.

Motorcycles are wonderful things.

For the time you ride them, you forget your age.

The wind...

The tension...

Motorcycles truly rejuvenate you.

You know, I didn't want to say it in front of everyone but,

it's all thanks to you I was able to get my license.

And... I'd like to thank you, Hayakawa.

Hayakawa...?

Oops,

I accidentally got caught up thinking about the future there.

What were you saying, Milady?

Ha-...

Hayakawa?

Do I have something on my face?

No, no it's beyond that, it's like an entirely different person's face!

Huh?

Oh my.

Motorcycles REALLY do rejuvenate you.

Rejuvenate...?

But that's nothing like that old picture...

Whaaaaaaa!?

Then that picture...

You were on the left, Hayakawa!

Huh, did I not mention it?

At the time, the Minowa family was matrilineal, so this appearance was more convenient for me...

No... That's not the part I'm doubting.

Even if I could admit some sort of supernatural power could rejuvenate you,

why would your clothes change too!?

I don't understand what's going on anymore!

I guess God, too, has good taste!

Get closer you two.

Come on, a little more.

Alright, I'm taking the picture.

Three, two, one.

I wonder what Hijiri's house looks like!

It's got to be some sort of huge mansion.

Just how bored do we have to be, going all this way just to see how poor we all are.

That looks like the entrance over there.

Woah, amazing!

That's the secondary residence they built just for Hijiri's commute to school.

Imagine how the main one looks.

Welcome, we've been expecting you.

Well uh,

allow me to introduce you someone.

This is our maid, Hayakawa Hikaru—

No, uh...

Hikari!

Is she related to Hayakawa somehow?

Aaaactually, I'm not related or anything.

You see, yesterday on the motorcycle...

She's Hayakawa's illegitimate child!

Mi-Milady.

To be more specific, she's actually Hayakawa's illegitimate child's daughter!!

I had a feeling I had seen you somewhere before!

It was the girl from the picture he showed us yesterday!

I guess some things skip generations.

But you're really cute, Hikari!

Do you ride bikes, Hikari?

Yes, I've been riding ever since my teenage years.

Wow, amazing!

So, what do you ride now?

I bet it's a Ducati like Hayakawa.

Ah yes, it's a 750 S—

You can't understand why Hayakawa did this and that just by looking!!

This only concerns Hayakawa anyway!!!

Well, I guess Hayakawa had his reasons.

Show us your new bike, Hijiri!

Ooh! That's what we came here for in the first place.

Well everyone, wait for me outside!

I guess another serving of cakes won't make us late.

We shouldn't forget Hijiri's...

What kind of bike is it?

I heard it's a special order Panigale 400cc.

Panigale?

Right, Hane.

Shall I teach you a few biking techniques?

Huh? But Hijiri is bringing her bike.

Oh no problem, it won't take long at all.

Okay then, please do!

Full Lock Turn

Turn the handlebars all the way.

Look far away as if you're turning.

Don't use the front brake;

Control your speed with the rear brake.

Open up the throttle.

It's working!

Wheelie

Make the front suspension sink.

At the same time open up the throttle,

and shift your body weight back, then when the weight comes off

Here!

I'm gonna have to wheelie at every light tomorrow.

You're great at teaching.

You might just be the best rider here, Hikari.

What are these two doing?

They must be showing off their power to tell which one is the most skilled.

I don't get it.

Yes, me neither.

Amazing! Raimu-senpai recognized Hikari's riding skills!

She's the real deal.

There sure are a lot of people who need to be the center of attention all the time here...

I hate those kind of people.

Hey! Wait a minute!

Don't go around touching other people's bikes!

You'll sully it!

Suzuki are such great bikes.

Ta-da~! Kept you waiting, huh!

This is my new bike!

The world's only Panigale 399!

This is my...

Hikari, let me buy you some Anmitsu!

Hikari, let's go eat some red bean soup with mochi!

You dummy, she's going to eat Mitsumame with me.

Wait a minute, she's eating pudding à la mode with me first.

Now, it's about time for the first ride.

Surely it'll be the center of attraction.

Whoever wants to go for a test ride, raise your finger!

Now then everyone, it's about time for Milady to introduce her bike...

It doesn't seem like Hijiri came back yet.

Isn't she a little late?

I don't need Hayakawa any longer.

Now with my bike I can go anywhere without needing anyone!

Phew, I've been riding for a while.

Why did Raimu-senpai ride off in such a hurry?

Guess she remembered she had something to do.

What's so urgent she has to leave this fast?

Maybe it's not as urgent as it's important.

Important...

As if I'd let you get a head start!

Even faster!

Suddenly becoming frustrated and stubborn!

Only to lose the dearest thing to me, right in front of my eyes!

What's the point in being young again then!

It's hopeless, I can't lift it up.

Even though I could do it at the riding school...

Anything wrong?

My bike fell over and—

Hayakawa.

The normal Hayakawa.

Milady, shall I help you pick up your motorcycle?

You know how often I did it at the riding school!

I can do it myself this time too!

Watch this, Hayakawa!

But, why did you turn back?

You said you were back to your young self...

Motorcycles, just like life, can't be reversed.

Here you are, everyone.

Huh, where's Hikari?

Hikari had some urgent matters to attend to.

But Hikari was riding this bike.

This one doesn't have a sidecar.

Yes.

What's with you though, Hijiri?

Telling us you're coming to show us your new bike,

then suddenly leaving for a test ride on your own.

Oh! That's the one!

That's Hijiri's first big autobike!

I've never seen one like that before.

What kind of bike is it?

This bike...

is the world's first and only Panigale 399!

How is it, everyone?

I've now fully graduated from my training wheels!

Our country's licensing system is a truly beautiful thing.

That's the result of a great effort, too.

Well, now Hayakawa can send off Hijiri with some peace of mind.

Hayakawa, you don't trust Hijiri, do you?

I do trust her.

I merely know Milady very well.
