So you hire guards and build secret tunnels that allow you to go where you want to go. What&#8217;s the thing you hope for most? That the bad guys never find the key to open the big door at the end of the long tunnel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So&#8230;what kind of story would you tell about this scary tunnel under the skyscraper? Does someone have the key? And when you&#8217;re in bed at night, do you hear the soft SLAM of a thick door several floors below you.
