I am using msys2, am on a LAN and I don't want to connect to the public Monero network. My aim is to study Monero and so want to run it in a private chain mode or similar. So how can I run it like this? How to create the concerned environment? Thank you.

Thank you @jtgrassie, and I do it according to here. But in the first step I come across a situation: the wallet output stops after "WARNING: Do not reuse..." and does not show a prompt.

root@DESKTOP-EEM7CKJ MINGW64 ~
$ monero-wallet-cli.exe --testnet --generate-new-wallet ~/testnet/wallet_01.bin  --restore-deterministic-wallet --electrum-seed="sequence atlas unveil summon pebbles tuesday beer rudely snake rockets different fuselage woven tagged bested dented vegan hover rapid fawns obvious muppet randomly seasons randomly" --password "" --log-file ~/testnet/wallet_01.log --log-level 1
This is the command line monero wallet. It needs to connect to a monero
daemon to work correctly.
WARNING: Do not reuse your Monero keys on another fork, UNLESS this fork has key reuse mitigations built in. Doing so will harm your privacy.

and the logs content is below: of course, I deleted some middle content in order to not exceed the length restriction.

Maybe I cannot connect the testnet? How to solve it?

The following page comprehensively documents how to run a private testnet: https://github.com/moneroexamples/private-testnet

This allows you to run a private network of nodes (and wallets), which is exactly what you're after.
