The Boy in Room 9

Tonight is Alex's last night in the hospital - he is going home tomorrow. As he was studying his French he met the boy from next door. He was also young - about Alex's age. His name was Paul Drevin. He was jealous that Alex was going home and that he would have to stay an extra day. Alex went to bed for the final time in the hospital but awoke after midnight and couldn't fall back to sleep. He decided to go for a walk. As he was on his walk toward the receptionist he saw 4 men enter the hospital. They wanted to visit Paul Drevin. The receptionist said that they would have to come back in the morning during visiting hours because it was almost 1AM. The men didn't want to hear this and pulled out a gun.

Who do you think these men were and why do they want to see Paul so badly?
