They always help Raymond cover up his rough behavior. 5.​ You shouldn’t blame them. They wouldn’t listen to you simply because they are disappointed about your past.

Raymond: No, there’s less crime in Taipei than in any other big city. Maria: Did your student report the robbery to the police? Raymond: Yes, she called the police at once.
