Returns the target value in a nested JSON object, based on the `keys` array.
Compare the keys you want in the nested JSON object as an `Array`.
Use `Array.prototype.reduce()` to get value from nested JSON object one by one.
If the key exists in object, return target value, otherwise, return `null`.
