My Name is Gu Ding

"Deep Sea Star, 4.5 billion years old, with a radius of 6378.2 kilometers. 71% of its surface is covered by water, with the remaining part being land, making it a planet that is entirely sea-blue. It rotates on its axis with a period of approximately 24 hours and revolves around its star, Profound Sun Star, with a period of one year. Its satellite is Moon God Star, which orbits Deep Sea Star with a period of 0.32 days..."

Lin Na finished playing the short film introducing Deep Sea Star. Her gaze swept over the children below, and she noticed a pair of eyes fixed firmly on her. She followed the gaze.

The child had short, messy black hair and black pupils. His build was slightly thin among his peers. His eyes held a hint of confusion, but his gaze was clearly not on the holographic projection behind her, but on her. This made her frown slightly.

Lin Na had always been confident in her disguise. The introverted and taciturn planetary studies teacher was the least challenging role in her disguise career. She pursed her lips. If this woman's boyfriend hadn't been the courier for the Federal Government's goods this time, she wouldn't have had to disguise herself as this woman who never let her chest breathe. Fortunately, the item was already in hand, and the mission was complete. As long as she finished this class, she could leave this low-level civilization planet without revealing any flaws.

But the young boy's gaze made her feel uneasy. Could he have discovered something?

Thinking of this, she lowered her head to look at the teaching guidance screen in front of her. She lightly tapped the seat number displayed on the desk, and the young boy's information was quickly laid bare.

Name: Gu Ding

Gender: Male

Age: 15

Genetic Level: First Order

Special Ability: Not awakened

Cell Comprehensive Index: 10

Mental Strength: 9.8

Combat Talent: B+

Comprehension: A

Special Event: Publicly stated at the freshman orientation ceremony that he hoped to "become the man with the highest bounty in the entire universe sea."

Evaluation: Strengths: Possesses extraordinary comprehension and combat talent.

Weaknesses: Too individualistic, difficult to manage.

Lin Na was also a little surprised after reading the young boy's profile. He doesn't have any detection-type special abilities, so it should be impossible for him to discover my disguise. The cell comprehensive index of an adult with First Order genes is generally only 1. It's not strange for the cell index to reach the limit of a First Order genetic body, 10 points, after training. But his mental strength is so high; this isn't something that can be easily improved through cultivation... He even publicly stated at the Federal military training base that he hoped to become an interstellar pirate. Interesting...

A slight smile played on her lips, and she suddenly felt like teasing him. "Gu Ding, please tell us the current proportion of native inhabitants on Deep Sea Star."

Gu Ding was startled at first, then calmly stood up. "The current proportion of native inhabitants on Deep Sea Star is 18.1%, with a population of approximately 340 million."

Lin Na secretly glanced at the answer on the screen, then asked the second question. "Second question, besides the native inhabitants on Deep Sea Star, how many immigrant races are there?"

"There are 117 documented immigrant races, with a population of approximately 1.53 billion." Gu Ding answered without any hesitation.

Lin Na lowered her head and looked at the data, finding no errors. She narrowed her eyes slightly and remained silent for a moment, then continued to ask, "Please briefly describe the event of the sharp decline in Deep Sea Star's population."

This topic was something that happened before the New Era and was a dark history. It was vaguely mentioned and not detailed in textbooks. Lin Na bringing it up was clearly intended to make things difficult for Gu Ding.

Gu Ding raised his eyebrows and continued to answer. "In the year 7842359 of the Federal Era, which is the year 2112 of the Deep Sea Star calendar, a meteorite carrying a highly contagious unknown virus crashed into the Atlantic Ocean on Deep Sea Star. The virus began to spread rapidly, causing a large number of creatures to die. The bodies were controlled by the virus and actively attacked the creatures that were still alive. In eight years, the population of 7 billion was reduced to 300 million, and the survival rate of other species was less than one-thousandth. To preserve the civilization of this planet, the Universe Federal Government sent troops. It took seven months to completely eliminate the virus and rebuild and incorporate Deep Sea Star. Deep Sea Star officially became a member planet of the Federal Government. It was also officially renamed Deep Sea Star from its original name, Earth..."

The awkwardness on Lin Na's face flashed and disappeared. Her gaze shifted slightly, falling on the young boy to the left of the one who had just answered. It was a blond young boy who was slumped over, looking like he was about to fall asleep. She lowered her head slightly and glanced at the name displayed on the teaching guidance screen. "Gu Ding, you may sit down. Reed, please answer..."

The day's class quickly ended. Gu Ding, who was about to get up and leave, was stopped by Reed, who lowered his voice and said, "Hey, don't you think Teacher Ellie today is a little different from before?"

"She is different. What's wrong?" Gu Ding had clearly also noticed something unusual.

"I suspect the woman who just taught us is a fake." Reed raised his eyebrows.

"An imposter?!" Gu Ding was startled. He had only intuitively sensed that Teacher Ellie had changed, but Reed's deductions were usually well-founded.

"This woman revealed many flaws. First, when she touched the teaching screen, she initially used her left hand, indicating she's left-handed. Later, she seemed to realize this and switched to her right hand. Teacher Ellie is right-handed; everyone knows that."

"Second, the question she asked you at the end was about the dark history of planetary studies. This type of history is prohibited by the Federal Government from being included in textbook files, and teachers are not allowed to publicly discuss such content. Given Teacher Ellie's rigid personality, she would absolutely never touch upon such content."

"These are the two main flaws, and in terms of details, she was even more full of holes. She didn't know our names, nor did she know the answers to the two questions she asked you, which is why she lowered her head to look at the seating chart and the teaching guide. In a class lasting half an hour, the total time she spent speaking was no more than seven minutes. The real Teacher Ellie always spends around eighteen minutes explaining the teaching files. Do you need me to continue?"

"I'm leaving first." Gu Ding had been busy organizing his package and hadn't heard any of Reed's reasoning.

"Don't you want to know where the real Teacher Ellie went? Who is this woman? What is her purpose in impersonating Teacher Ellie?" Reed seemed to want to continue his deductions.

"Teacher Ellie has probably been taken care of by someone. Where her body is is something the Federal Army needs to worry about. As for the identity of that woman just now, that's also something the Federal Army needs to concern themselves with. I need to go to Aunt Rose's place to work. See you, chatterbox!" Gu Ding interrupted Reed's incessant talking.

"Bastard, I'm not finished yet! The chance of Teacher Ellie being taken care of is clearly only ninety-one percent, there's still a nine percent chance of survival! The chance of this woman's identity being over sixty percent is..." Reed cursed, then continued to show off his powerful and terrifying deductive abilities as if talking to himself.

Escaping the school, Gu Ding rode his hover motorcycle all the way towards the west of the city.

The west of the city was a backward and noisy area. The garbage piled everywhere here emitted a nauseating stench, and the countless alarms that sounded throughout the day made one's ears callus. This was the source of evil and a paradise for criminals.

This area also had another name – the Red Light District. In the past, the Red Light District referred to places of pleasure, but this Red Light District was not. The red light symbolized alarms, and the Red Light District symbolized a place where alarms rang non-stop every day.

Precisely because it was a mix of good and bad, it also became a temporary stopover for many space pirates. Although Deep Sea Star was a newly developed planet, the number of passing space pirates was increasing day by day. Gu Ding grew up in this district. Since he could remember, this place seemed to have always been a paradise for space pirates.

Looking at the sign of the Rose Tavern not far ahead, Gu Ding's steps slowed slightly. His gaze inadvertently swept over a street corner to his left, and he spotted a somewhat familiar figure.

"Huh, why would she come to the Red Light District?" A hint of doubt arose in Gu Ding's heart, but he saw the figure flash and disappear. After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't suppress his curiosity and quietly followed.
