I have reminded the editor several times during the process, but no one responded. After contacting the journal manager, the editor replied that one of the reviewers had not responded, and on 9.8, they re-invited a reviewer.
2022.9.16 First review comments received, with a few experimental and mechanistic issues raised.
2022.9.30 Revision submitted.
2022.10.4 Under review
2022.10.8 Under review, time changed once, one reviewer submitted comments.
2022.10.26 Second review received, one acceptance and one requesting citation of three of their own articles.
2022.10.27 Revised.
2022.10.29 Editor agreed to accept.

Overall, the process took over half a year. If I hadn't reminded them several times, it would probably have taken more than a year. I will be more cautious in future submissions.

I will share my submission process with everyone, hoping it will be helpful. After submitting on August 31, 2022, the editor was assigned. It remained in the "with editor" status until September 18. The editor sent it for review on October 3, and the first reviewer completed their review. On October 10, the editor provided 20 days for minor revisions. After receiving the first reviewer's response on October 30, the article was sent to two reviewers who completed their reviews on November 4. From then until 7:30 PM on November 18, it remained in the "review complete" status. Around 9 PM on November 18, the editor sent an email to receive it. Throughout the entire process, the reviewers were fast and friendly, while the editor may have been busy and took a longer time. I hope this information is useful for everyone!
