One of the thieves took out a switchblade from under the pillow, but when his eyes recovered from the strong light, he found two black gun muzzles pointing at him and his companion respectively.

The two thieves who were sleeping soundly were suddenly awakened. Seeing the gun pointed at them at close range, they were so frightened that they threw their knives to the ground and held their heads with their hands.

"Don't move!" Chief Wei shouted, motioning Bai Song to come forward and handcuff him. At this time, Chief Wei and Chief Qian each held a gun, but in fact, neither of them intended to shoot, the mere deterrence of the gun was enough.

The two little guys who didn't dare to move were handcuffed by Bai Song in a short while.

Chief Wei pointed the law enforcement recorder on his chest at the two thieves: "What are the batteries in the yard outside for? Where did they come from?"

"I picked it up..." the younger thief said hesitantly.

"Young man," Chief Wei walked up to the young thief and said, "I advise you to think it through. If you think I'm easy to fool, come back to the station with me later. You, you have to take care of what you can't eat! And what you picked up? Come on, go out now and pick one up for me!"

"Hmm..." the thief stammered.

"Okay, I won't ask here. It's them, the two of them. We caught them well, take them away first." Chief Wei turned and walked out the door.

Because they had a search warrant, a search record had to be made on the scene, and several people began to record and sort out the scene.

There were 45 different types of batteries, seven electric bicycles, two mountain bikes and various spare parts in the yard and the house. The large truck we drove when we arrived could not hold them all, so we finally filled up the thief's electric bicycles and barely managed to fit them all.

Wei Suo and Qian Ming each had a car, and the group of seven drove two cars back to the institute first, while Bai Song rode the electric bicycle back.

Bai Song had never ridden a large electric three-wheeler before, but it was very easy to operate. Just step on the accelerator and the motor will drive the vehicle forward. Bai Song started it and found it was not difficult to ride. He set off slowly.

It was a little after seven in the evening and there were still a lot of cars on the road. Not long after he walked out, a police car stopped in front of Bai Song.

Bai Song was wearing his winter duty uniform, but his police rank was a pair of crutches, which looked like the shoulder straps of a security guard.

There is no way around it. Nowadays, many security personnel and auxiliary police officers wear epaulettes in various styles, which can easily lead to misunderstandings. Moreover, the styles of their clothes are similar. The police rank that Bai Song wears looks especially like an auxiliary police officer or security guard.

There are six official police ranks, with a total of 14 different levels. The first level is students and trainee police officers. Police academy students have one crutch, and trainee police officers, or Baisong, have two crutches. After working for a year, police officers will become official police officers. In the past, when you could become a police officer after graduating from high school, you only had one bean (a small flower with four petals) after becoming a regular police officer, which was called a second-level police officer. Above that, there were two bean marks, which was called a first-level police officer.

As the police are gradually becoming more university-based, all graduates have college or bachelor's degrees or above. In this case, trainee police officers will be directly promoted to the rank of superintendent after they are formally promoted, commonly known as one bar one, which is a white horizontal line plus a bean, the third-level superintendent. One bar two is the second-level superintendent, and one bar three is the first-level superintendent.

Above the superintendent is the police inspector. Basically, even if a policeman cannot serve as a leading cadre, he will be promoted to the third-level police inspector, that is, two bars and one flower, after 10 years. As most policemen grow older, they will be promoted to two bars and three flowers, first-level police inspector, at around the age of 50, and then wait for retirement.

These are the four most common levels of police. Above them are senior police officers, who all start wearing white shirts and have wheat ears on their shoulders. This type of police is rare at the grassroots level. Tianhua City, as a municipality, can see some, but ordinary county bureaus generally don't have any.

Detachment Ma and Deputy Director Tian of the branch are the second-level police inspector and the first-level police inspector respectively. Both of them are at the deputy division level, but Detachment Ma has a shorter working experience.

Many ordinary veteran police officers are first-level police inspectors. Therefore, the police rank has almost nothing to do with the size of the official position. However, the exception is above the white shirt. Above the white shirt, every additional bean is a qualitative change.

When it comes to the final level, there are no more flowers on the shoulders, but instead the national emblem is surrounded by wheat ears. That is the ministerial level, which is a bit too far away.

Before Bai Song, many trainee police officers had to wear one crutch and then be awarded the rank of third-level superintendent after a year due to the irregular system. However, Bai Song's class began to standardize the system, so it was not surprising that they were stopped by ignorant police cars on the road while wearing two crutch.

"What are you doing?" Two policemen got out of the car and saw Bai Song's police rank. They were a little curious but also wary, mainly because the batteries in the car were too eye-catching.

Bai Song smiled bitterly. He didn't have a police ID, so he got out of the car and could only explain the situation to the two traffic policemen, who then asked them to call Jiuhe Bridge Police Station and ask.

At this moment, another police car stopped behind Bai Song's car.

Bai Song was speechless. Why were they still chasing and intercepting them?

"Bai Song? Is that you?" The person who got off the car was none other than Li Han from the Sanlin Road Police Station.

"Captain Li? Why are you here too?" Bai Song hurried over.

"Someone called the police, saying that someone broke into the neighbor's house and there was a lot of noise and clanging. They suspected that there was a thief. Could they be talking about you? Haha." Li Han pointed at the battery at the back of the car.

"Yes, we caught a battery thief. This is only part of the case. Our Wei Suo and his men have already taken some of it back in a truck." Bai Song said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, that's great. You guys have busted the thieves' den in our area. Chief Wei is really capable." Li Han naturally knew the leader of the next-door station who was on duty on the same day as him. Chief Wei was very good at catching people and had a certain reputation in the branch. Li Han gave a thumbs up and said, "We haven't heard the news yet. You've done it. Good."

The traffic police here also knew Li Han and his friends. After seeing this situation, they understood what was going on. They shook hands with Bai Song, apologized, and left.

"Our Chief Wei is quite capable. Today, I retrieved two photos from the video and sent them to the newly established WeChat group in the institute. He also linked all the cases sent last night together and found them easily." Bai Song praised.

"Haha," Li Han laughed, "How can you be as good as me? You solved such a big case in just one month. You have a bright future ahead of you!"

"Brother Li, you don't know me yet? We have been working on cases together for so long, I'm just lucky." Bai Song looked a little ashamed.

"Virtue! Okay, I won't praise you anymore." Li Han thought for a moment and said, "By the way, have you heard about the new task force set up by the Municipal Bureau? I heard about both of your cases?"
