After conducting a preliminary investigation about home burglary, the homeowner is very anxious if he could get back his stolen belongings.

Homeowner: "Officer what is the chance of me getting my things back."

Police: "It's very unfortunate this happened. I am sorry even if we catch the culprits, chances are your properties are already sold or gone."

Homeowner: "What should I do?"

Police: "Better lock next time."
