But can't login with anyone username. Trying to dd($username) into LoginController, "guard()->attempt" show me "null". Thanks for your help !

Been through this pain myself.
It looks like you are connecting to LDAP with your service account, but I don't see where you are logging the authenticated user into Laravel. Do your users have to supply a username and password on a screen somewhere? If not, how do you grab the user and log them in to Laravel?
The way I did this in the businesses that had to go through LDAP was to have the normal Laravel login page, but a middle method within the login controller which sent a message to LDAP through the service account with the PW. If this succeeded, then login with Laravel's standard method. Basically just check the PW against LDAP and then log in rather than checking against the Laravel DB.
Example code - this will vary wildly but can give you an idea of what might work:
