Caption: Figure 3.

Common proper-motion test of the companion candidate around J1446. The blue and orange crosses indicate the relative location to the central star (ΔR.A. for x-axis and Δdecl. for y-axis). The gray solid line indicates a trajectory of a zero proper-motion background star and the red cross indicates an expected position of the background-star case in the second epoch. We insert the zoomed-in panel for the relative astrometry of the first and second epochs, whose error bars are small in the original panel.
