What Did I Do?

After leaving Konstruk Star, the Grey Eagle slowly sailed along its New Trade Route. Gu Ding and his crew still hadn't decided on their destination, and they were still discussing the Energy Crystal that Robert needed.
"Sea Emperor, if we can't find the Energy Crystal that Robert needs, can we try looking for other alternative energy sources?" Gu Ding felt that instead of pinning his hopes on the Energy Crystal that he had no clue about, it would be better to try to find a substitute.
"Theoretically, it's feasible, because intelligent life forms like them should have an intelligent energy conversion system within their bodies. It's just that the Middle Ancient Era are too far removed from the present, and many types of energy ores are completely different from those of that era. I don't know if their energy conversion system would be compatible." The Sea Emperor felt that this idea had some merit.
"We can try finding more energy ores," Liliath also thought this was the best way. "If one doesn't work, we'll try a second one, and if the second one doesn't work, we'll try a third one, and so on until we find one that he can use."
"Yes, Sea Emperor, let's go to the area with the richest mineral deposits nearby." Having come up with this solution, Gu Ding immediately decided on their next destination.
"On the New Trade Route, on the edge of the Long Teng Universe Country, there is a star system called the Mayer Star Region. That star system has the richest mineral resources in the entire Long Teng Universe Country." The Sea Emperor quickly found the location of the richest mineral resources.
"Then let's go to the Mayer Star Region!" Gu Ding grinned.
While Gu Ding was still en route, the Federal Government compiled a list of suspects in the Konstruk Star incident.
"At the time of the incident, there were 32 teams still on Konstruk Star, of which 30 were teams of three or more people, and 23 of them were Interstellar Pirate."
"Of the thirty-two teams, twenty-five were seen by eyewitnesses. These twenty-five teams were either seen by us at the scene of the battle, by our monitoring personnel, or by the surveillance footage. In short, none of them were able to get into the Super Weapon."
"Tell me about the situation of the remaining seven teams!" A Middle-Aged Man sitting in the head seat spoke calmly and with an air of composure.
"Of the remaining seven teams, Gu Ding and Liliath are two new pirates. According to our intelligence, they haven't recruited a third person yet, and they also had a minor conflict with our monitors, confirming that their teams only have two people. Therefore, we can rule them out of the Super Weapon self-destruction incident. However, we suspect that the loss of control of the port platform canopy and the leak of Super Weapon information are related to them."
"We've checked the records of these two newcomers. It seems that Gu Ding hacked into the prison system of the Tianhe Star Region when he was on Deep Sea Star. The simultaneous malfunction of the seventy-two Armor-Piercing Cannon at the port on Fengyuan Star, as well as the recent failure of the port platform's canopy system, were probably his doing. Although there is no concrete evidence, it seems that these events are unlikely to be mere coincidences. This also shows that this newcomer's hacking skills are quite high."
"Back on Konstruk Star, Gu Ding even used a fake number to trick our surveillance personnel, pretending to be a family member of one of them. At the time, the two surveillance personnel forgot about the planet's signal jamming and only realized the signal was blocked when they called back. Breaking through the planet's signal jamming and destroying the port's celestial control system, it seems that only he among the thirty-two teams can do it right now."
"We still don't know how he got the list of people who accepted this mission. It's not 100% accurate, but it's still very strange. Because at the time, Your Majesty, you asked Wendell and me to arrange the personnel for this mission ourselves. Before we set off, I didn't know who Wendell had chosen, Wendell didn't know who I had chosen either. Moreover, we replaced the monitoring chips that day, and I destroyed the original chips. It's impossible for him to have obtained any video data about that day."
"This only shows that you don't know these two kids well enough." The Middle-Aged Man brought up the Bounty Order posters for Gu Ding and Liliath, stared at the images for a long time, and then spoke, "Double their bounties. Of the remaining six teams, which one is the most suspicious?"
"The most suspicious Destiny Pirate Crew, whose captain is Destiny. The most suspicious thing is that a few months ago, they added an intelligent robot member of unknown origin, who may be related to the Middle Ancient Era Mechanical Race. Moreover, apart from appearing at the port on the first day, none of their team members showed up for the next two days. They also left immediately after the explosion."
"It does sound suspicious," the Middle-Aged Man nodded after listening. "Go all out to capture them, capture them alive. Maybe we can get some information about the Super Weapon from them."
"Captain, the Federal Government has issued a new Bounty Order!" A seemingly dim-witted robot on a dilapidated Black Crow shouted excitedly.
"Everyone, come and see!" A short, stout man gathered everyone together.

"These two newcomers are so arrogant... That guy named Gu Ding has already put a higher bounty on me than on me!" Destiny said somewhat resentfully upon seeing the Bounty Order on Gu Ding and Liliath.
"Boss, I think your name is at the very bottom!" one of them shouted excitedly.
He clicked on his latest Bounty Order with some curiosity.
