SQL, VB.Net | 我可以使用什么查询来获取这个值？

Question

In the above I want it to give me the value of "ID" of the "Username" associated with it.

Here is the command I tried

Dim Query2 = String.Format("SELECT ID FROM account WHERE character = " & UsernameTextBox.Text & " ")
            Command = New MySqlCommand(Query2, mydbcon)
            Dim idtest = reader.Read.ToString
            MsgBox(idtest)

however it is returning "false" what am I doing wrong?

Here is the entire code that I am working on:

Try
        mydbcon.Open()
        Dim Query As String
        Query = String.Format("SELECT * FROM account WHERE username = '{0}' AND password = '{1}'", Me.UsernameTextBox.Text.Trim(), Me.PasswordTextBox.Text.Trim())
        Dim Command = New MySqlCommand(Query, mydbcon)
        reader = Command.ExecuteReader

        Dim count As Integer
        count = 0
        While reader.Read
            count = count + 1
        End While

        If count = 1 Then
            MessageBox.Show("Username and password are correct")
            Query = String.Format("SELECT username AS ID FROM account WHERE character = " & UsernameTextBox.Text & " ")
            Command = New MySqlCommand(Query, mydbcon)

            My.Settings.LoginID = reader.Read
            MsgBox(My.Settings.LoginID)
        ElseIf count > 1 Then
            MessageBox.Show("Username and password are duplicate")
        Else
            MessageBox.Show("Username and password are wrong")
        End If
        mydbcon.Close()
    Catch ex As MySqlException
        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
    Finally
        mydbcon.Dispose()
    End Try

使用 ID 作为别名（因此select username AS anyNameYouWantToAssignToIt ）：

Dim Query2 = String.Format("SELECT username AS ID FROM account WHERE character = " & UsernameTextBox.Text & " ")
