Operation Keyring Periscope
That door gap called for proper gear! I sprinted over to the umbrella stand and hauled myself up the wicker weave to reach the low entryway table. Sitting right inside a shallow wooden bowl was a brass keyring with a tiny round reflector fob attached. Perfect periscope material! I grabbed the heavy metal ring with both hands, planted my feet on the polished rim, and dragged the entire bundle to the table edge. Clink! The brass chattered loudly against the wood, but it didn't slip. Tipping it sideways, the curved mirror caught the amber hallway light and beamed it straight down to the floor mat. We are totally prepared to probe the outer hallway!
