On the other hand, the Drug Enforcement Division.

It is just a branch of the investigation department of NCPD, and the scale varies greatly.

Here we have to talk about the public police department system in Night City——

The entire NCPD is led by the "Committee of Police Commissioners", which functions similarly to the board of directors of a company, is responsible for the policy formulation of NCPD, and supervises the overall management and operation.There are five people on the committee, all civilians called "commissioners" who are appointed by the mayor and confirmed by the city council.

The boss of NCPD, and also the boss of the committee, is the "Police Commissioner" with five stars, the notorious Jerry Folt.He actually belongs to the civilian staff appointed by the Night City government, which is why he was able to parachute from the data terminal company.

The committee is in charge of leadership, and the person in charge of execution is the "Chief of Police" with four stars and his office. Its function is similar to that of the company's top general manager. It is not a civil servant, but the highest among military personnel. level.

It is actually very simple to distinguish between civil and military positions——

The former are generally either suits or casual clothes.

The latter is a uniform, and will also wear police badges, police ranks and other identifications.

And the police rank, sometimes does not mean everything, the position and power is the measure.

Below this "Board of Police Commissioners" and "Office of the Chief Sheriff" are various departments.

① First of all, the most basic is the "action department".

According to the geographical area of ​​​​Night City, the operation department has five major bureaus (Bureau)——

Northern Division, Hill Division, Valley Division, Southern Division, and Central Division.

Under each branch, it will be subdivided into various Community Police Stations.

These police stations are responsible for patrolling, public security and some administrative work, and they are the policemen you usually see.

The boss of the operations department is the three-star "Assistant Chief (Assistant Chief Sheriff)".

The chief of each branch is usually served by a two-star "Deputy Chief (Deputy Chief Sheriff)" and a one-star "Commander (Sheriff)".

In the police stations under each branch, there are generally two leaders, and the positions are "Captain" with two silver bars, ranging from the higher third-level police officer to the lowest first-level police officer.

For example, the Coronado Dam Police Department of the River Valley Branch, which is not very important, even has only one first-level superintendent.

And the downtown police station of the important central sub-bureau is filled with two third-level police supervisors.

As for the police stations of the Southern Branch within the scope of Pacific Island...

All have been cancelled.

NCPD would rather send their superintendents to the deserted Jackson Plains and protein farms than go to Pacific Island to ask for trouble.

②Secondly, it is the "investigation department" that is busy all day long.

Except for the action department, other departments are not divided into regions to enforce the law throughout the city, but the divisions are different.

The investigation department is equipped with a "Police administrator I (first-level police administrator)" with a star civilian position, and five military positions, including two second-level police supervisors and three third-level police supervisors.

The investigation department has four major departments, namely "Anti-drug Division", "Anti-Looting Division", "Homicide Division" and "Special Investigation Division".

As we all know, Night City is not peaceful, dead people are commonplace, and there has never been a day of peace and tranquility.

The more it is in such a city, the more powerful the department with strong security capabilities will be.

Other departments, such as "forensic science", "data comparison department", "juvenile department", etc., are in an auxiliary position.

Some clues can also be seen from the commander's rank and number.

Although the anti-narcotics department that called Luo Qi is very important, the supreme commander is only a third-level police inspector.

Although Patrick is the (big) captain, he is not the No. [-] figure in the Narcotics Division, which means that he is a second-level superintendent if he is exhausted.

③Then, there is the "tactical department" that excels in various actions.

The tactical department may have a different name in other cities, and the division of functions is also different.

For example, dealing with major cases is the job of the "Special Operations Department" in Los Angeles, and the job of the "Special Investigation Section of the Investigation Department" in Night City. Each region of the United States has its own rules and regulations.

The boss of the NCPD's tactical department is also a three-star "Assistant Chief (Assistant Chief Sheriff)".

The tactical department has two well-known departments——

SWAT (SWAT Anti-Terrorist Team) and Riot Control.

In view of the poor law and order in Night City, the status of SWAT is quite different. It directly assigns a two-star "Deputy Chief (Deputy Chief Sheriff)", and directly reports to the "Assistant Chief" who is the leader of the tactical department. (Assistant Chief Constable)" report.

The anti-riot department usually does not do less work. Whenever there is any demonstration or violent destruction, they will take to the streets.

Also equipped with a one-star "Commander (sheriff)".

④ Then, after the three major departments are finished, the rest are some "irrelevant" departments.

Of course, saying this will definitely cause a conflict, but in all fairness, the role of these departments is indeed slightly smaller.

For example, the logistics support department that is always called by Luo Qi to clean up the battlefield (wipe his ass).

The top leader is only the third-level police inspector, so the Department of Internal Affairs who dare not let the fart go when the high-level mistakes are reported.

The office of the chief of staff who thinks every day about how to lay off people and maximize profits, and engages in publicity when he has nothing to do.

The training department that manages the training and recruitment of police officers.

A network security department that is useless compared to network monitoring.

There is also a personnel department that I don't know what it is for, but almost every company has it.

As well as the administrative department and a bunch of attached accessories that are busy every day and useless...

If this were a healthy, sound public police department, Roach would have replaced those attributives with words and words of praise.

But problem NCPD it is not.

Rotten, rotten, rancid, a host of problems.

And it can be seen that although the top leaders of many important departments of NCPD are military positions, as long as the appointment power of the five commissioners of the committee is held by the mayor, it is equivalent to the direction and lifeline of this listed public police department. It is completely in the hands of the mayor.

If the board of directors can control an NCPD, then those who control the board of directors can round up and flatten the NCPD at will.

As for the violent terrorist mobile team, which is now the highest force tactical department, it should have been a branch of SWAT in the tactical department.

In other words, the highest police rank of a leader is a police inspector.

Theoretically speaking, the violent terrorist mobile team itself is a brigade with three squadrons under it.

According to the division of police ranks, the "Captain" should be at the level of the captain, which is just right.

But Master Yi is a third-level police inspector, but he is the captain of the first team. This is an obvious "low position and high allocation".

As "Lieutenant II (Second Inspector/Senior Inspector)", Melissa only served as the deputy captain of the first team and the leader of the first team.

And don't forget that the current status of the Supreme Force Tactics Department can be regarded as a law enforcement agency at the same level as NCPD, and has the highest level of law enforcement.

In other words, their leader should be on the same level as Jerry Folt, the "five-star pig".

This is completely unimaginable in other cities.

As a brigade, it was too small; as a city police department, it was too big.

The existence of the Supreme Armed Forces Tactics Department is not in line with common sense, so it is impossible to simply compare it with other police departments.

Police rank is an existence that cannot be used as a standard of measurement——

If you don’t believe me, go and see, does the NCPD superintendent dare to speak nonsense in front of the superintendent Melissa?

Custody behaved like a sheep.

Most of the official members of the violent terrorist mobile team are first-level police inspectors.

Melissa is the deputy captain of the first team and the team leader of the first team. She is a second-level police inspector and will soon be promoted to a first-level police supervisor.

Master is the deputy commander and captain of the first team of the violent terrorist mobile team, and a third-level police superintendent. In fact, it is not too much to be a one-star sheriff.

Although there are only less than [-] regular players, there are many reserve players and regular players combined.

There are about a hundred reserve players and over four hundred regular players.

In terms of quantity, it is incomparable with the big guy NCPD, but the combat effectiveness is the other way around.

Regular players can be used as their elites, and official players can even directly fight ten.

But if Jerry Folt has any thoughts about them, he has to weigh whether he is enough to beat him up.

Compared with regular members, the ranks of reserve members and regular members are not so high.

The ones with stars are senior police officers, and there are not many in the entire Supreme Military Tactics Department.

Those with bars, such as the Superintendent of Police, are ordinary police officers, the backbone and senior members of the police.

Next, it is the grassroots police.

"Sergeant (superintendent)", divided into two levels.

"Detective (Detective)", divided into three levels.

"Police Officer (police officer)", divided into four levels.

Of course, if you are willing to continue counting down, you can count on trainee police officers or even police school students.

This can't help but remind Luo Qi of River——

If a police detective wants to use the suspicious points in the death of the mayor to restart the investigation, he has to directly report to several levels.

It's no wonder that when it was submitted, not only did it go nowhere, but it was also suspended.

This is basically an egg hitting a rock.

It is not a matter of justice or injustice, firmness or unsteadiness.

It's like going to the company's gate to protest, expecting them to find out and act with conscience, it's better to pray that a Johnny Silver hand will fall from the sky tomorrow and smash them to death.

Although this shows that NCPD still has many good police officers working, it also makes people see no hope.

Like the poor brigade of the Narcotics Division.

As a team leader, Patrick has less than 50 people under his command, which is really called "cleaning up".

It is estimated that the situation of the other brigades of the anti-narcotics department will not be too good.

Cutting off the financial resources of these drug producers and traffickers who make money and go crazy, let alone the anti-drug police, even the chief of the police would dare to assassinate them.

"Tell me, where and how?"

Luo Qi doesn't hate NCPD, he just hates the notes that don't do anything about personnel.

"So you agreed?"

Patrick's voice was a little surprised, "Rovinj Street, the location of the Tiger Claw Gang..."

"understood."

Luo Qi said directly.

"I'm not finished yet."

Patrick was a little bit dumbfounded, "We got a guy who knew where to get Winky, so we just followed the news."

"So? Are you going to use him to knock on the door of the Tiger Claw Gang?"

Rocky asked.

"Of course not." Patrick quickly explained, "We learned about a situation, that is, although the scale of the drug production den is not small, there is only one person who understands the complete production process."

"Hmm~ 'Senior Engineer', I understand."

Luo Qi seemed to understand their plan.

Get rid of that person, and the Twinkle Workshop will have to shut down.

If you catch that person, Shining Workshop will also be shut down.

Patrick said: "We have already mastered his habits. This alcoholic, he has to go to the bar after work every day, and he will go home and get drunk every time. It is a good time to do it."

As for directly tying someone up without evidence and not complying with the procedure, no one cares at all.

"If you want me to say, just play big when you play. After directly kidnapping someone, talk to their boss, saying that they will be replaced by money. The more arrogant the attitude, the better."

Luo Qi came up with a plan, and said with a sneer, "When we arrive at the agreed place, we will release their pigeons."

"Send pigeons? Shouldn't you attack them?"

Patrick didn't understand what Rocky meant.

Luo Qi shook his head, "After releasing the pigeons, we will lead them to the real ambush location."
