Subject: reported speech
Hello..
Could you please help me with this sentence.
The next-door neighbour ____________ (tell) us this morning that the
apartment _____________ (leave) empty since last month. Their email
______________________ (not pick up) since then. You should see
it _ it's all piled up outside their door.
Should the past perfect be used because it is a reported speech sentence?
Thank you for your help.
