Solution
Indirect Speech is used to report something in our own words.
Suggestions are often reported using the verbs suggest, insist, recommend, request, demand and propose followed by that clause. 'Should' is used in the clause. 'Ordered' is used in case of command or order. Option A is wrong as 'should' is not used in this.
The sentence would become - He suggested that we should leave the case at the station.
Thus, option D is the correct answer.
