Zongman: People in Conan, raising cats and mice

This second-generation man looks determined to inherit his father's business, as if he had planned it all along. He is much better than those people who have high aspirations but lack the ability to achieve them.

Yumi Miyamoto has a good impression of such second-generation people. After all, compared with those second-generation people who idle around all day long but act arrogantly after coming here, such second-generation people are much easier to get along with.

"I didn't expect that in your opinion, Miwako, he would be able to pass the professional group! If he succeeds, it will be amazing!"

You should know that Japan does not have a dedicated police school. Its police school is at best just a pre-job training, and it usually only takes a few weeks or even months to complete the studies.

If you want to become a policeman, you must first take the civil service exam. Only after passing it can you enter the police academy for study and training.

However, even during the training period at the police academy, you can be considered a civil servant and start receiving a salary.

Depending on the level of the civil service examination they take, police officers can be divided into professional, semi-professional and non-professional groups.

Among them, the professional group and semi-professional group are both national civil servants, and their salaries are funded by the national treasury; while the non-professional group is local civil servants, and their salaries are paid by local finances.

The professional group takes the National Category 1 Civil Service Examination, the semi-professional group takes the National Category 2 Civil Service Examination, and the non-professional group takes the local civil service examination.

Every year, about 10 professional police officers are recruited, about 30-50 semi-professional police officers are recruited, and about non-professional police officers are recruited in each prefecture combined.

Police officers in the non-professional group need to start as patrol officers. Whether they can be promoted depends entirely on accidental factors such as whether their superiors have vacancies, and they have to take an exam every time they are promoted.

Only patrol officers can be promoted to patrol chiefs without taking an exam. This is a rank specially set up for those who have worked as patrol officers for 10 years without being promoted. Although their police rank is promoted, their jobs remain the same, so there is no need for a promotion exam.

However, this also shows that it is difficult for the non-professional group to get promoted, and there are many people who have not been promoted for many years.

In addition, it is difficult for non-professional groups to reach the rank of police inspector or above.

Police officers in the semi-professional group are like travelers climbing a mountain. They start as patrol chiefs and only after two or three years of hard work can they be promoted to police lieutenants.

Then, they need to spend another four to five years before they can become police chief.

Then, after seven or eight years of hard work, it is hoped that he will reach the level of police superintendent.

However, to be promoted to Superintendent of Police, one must work hard for another ten years or so.

At this point, their road to promotion seems to have come to an end.

The police officers in the professional group seemed to have boarded a fast track to promotion. Starting from the rank of deputy police lieutenant, it only took them one and a half years to reach the rank of police lieutenant.

After that, it only takes them four or five years to be promoted to superintendent of police.

However, as the position increases, the rate of promotion slows down.

After all, at a certain stage, high-ranking positions become rare treasures, and the old guys who occupy them have no plans to retire!

You actually still want to get promoted ahead of them? That's just wishful thinking!

High positions above the rank of Superintendent of Police have basically become the exclusive domain of the professional groups.

In addition, unlike the non-professional group, the professional and semi-professional groups do not rely on examinations for promotion, but mainly on the accumulation of qualifications.

Yes, it is important to point out that in the Japanese police, promotion does not depend on merit.

Even someone like Inspector Megure, who has been fighting on the front lines for a long time and solved many cases (although many of them were solved with the help of detectives, they were nominally attributed to him), due to his status as a non-professional team, it was difficult for him to make any further progress after being promoted to police inspector with great difficulty.

Even after Conan's plot develops further, Inspector Megure is still only a police inspector. Unless a big boss in the professional group is willing to give him a hand, his path to promotion will probably be difficult to continue.

And Yamamura So, the police officer who was frightened by a murder case when he first appeared, was able to rise rapidly in the workplace because of his identity in the professional group even though he was just an ordinary criminal at the beginning.

Although he had a low criminal police rank when he first appeared, he seemed immature and green, and he admitted that it was his first time seeing a dead body.

If this plot happened in the real world, it would be understandable. However, in the Conan world, who can believe that there has not been a murder case in Gunma Prefecture for several years?

Therefore, it was obvious that police officer Yamamura So had just joined the job, and when he appeared again about half a year later, he had been promoted to police captain.

This means that the seemingly unreliable police officer Yamamura So was recruited as a deputy inspector when he joined the company, a true professional group.

From this we can see that there is a huge gap between the two sides, and the speed of promotion is even more different. There is no need to compare at all.

Even though the non-professional group is superior in practical operational capabilities, the professional group will still be unconditionally favored whenever there is a promotion!

After all, there are only about ten professional groups each year, or sometimes only a few, so it is expected that they look out for each other.

"Wow, the professional group! How great it would be if I could have passed the exam like Miwako! It must be a lot easier now!" Yumi Miyamoto said enviously while driving.

Miwako Sato looked at the messages on her phone absentmindedly, occasionally echoing a response.

"How is that possible! Although the career group's promotion channels are clear, it is absolutely impossible to assign officers from the career group to the traffic department to be traffic police patrolling the road!"

Is this a joke? There are only a few professional police officers every year. How can they do this kind of work after passing the exam?

Assigning him to the Traffic Department as a traffic policeman, let alone whether he is willing or not, those in the same professional group as him, and the big guys before him, would definitely not be happy.

Even if it offends people from other professional groups, they will not belittle people from one professional group in this way.

Most likely his wishes will be taken into consideration and he will be arranged to work in important police departments at the central or local level.

In any case, it definitely couldn't be the traffic department, let alone a patrol policeman.

After Sato Miwako finished speaking, Miyamoto Yumi also nodded repeatedly.

Although she said this, she was also well aware of the gap between the professional group and the non-professional group, and this situation was simply impossible to happen.

There is no case today, so Sato Miwako can finally have some free time.

After all, for the Investigation Department, such leisurely days are rare.

Especially here, even members of the professional group will be busy and dizzy.

Many non-professional police officers here have not had administrative leave for a year or two. They can only get a few days of leave approved by their superiors when they are occasionally free, and they are not allowed to travel too far to avoid being recalled at any time.

Even if it is a temporary vacation like this, many police officers in the first investigation department have not encountered it for a long time. After all, even if it is a temporary rotation, it takes a long time~
