Looks like this is the second photograph of the Lily getting its engine started, the mechanic has secured the cowling the starter
truck has pulled away, pilot still has his canopy open, but is the mission still a go?

Check out the red line on the side of the fuselage and the Japanese, does it say beware of propellers? this is my guess...
