Reported Speech
Hi teachers,
I have this sentence in direct speech:
The policeman thought, “We must be one of the last stations that uses bikes and the sergeant sends me out on one on a night like this”
In reported speech should be if I'm not mistaken like this:
The policeman thought (that) they had to be one of the last stations that used bikes and the sergeant sent him out on one on a night like that.”

The same is true of 'send', then, so I think that the retrogression of both verbs is the best choice.
