Unable to retrieve version information from Elasticsearch nodes. connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:9200

Hi everyone
I'm trying setup SSL, TLS, HTTPS for my Elasticsearch and kibana container, 2 container ES and Kibana are all the same version (8.1.3) and run at localhost.
I'm edited the configure host file locally in /etc/hosts path:

127.0.0.1       kibana.local logstash.local elastic.local localhost

I use "docker-compose up -d" and exec to ES container for create CA, certs.
In /usr/share/Elasticsearch path i create new file with name "instance.yml":

instances:
  - name: 'elasticsearch'
    dns: [ 'elastic.local' ]
  - name: 'kibana'
    dns: [ 'kibana.local' ]
  - name: 'logstash'
    dns: [ 'logstash.local' ]

and i use command to create CA&cert:

bin/elasticsearch-certutil ca --pem --out config/certs/ca-cert.zip
unzip config/certs/ca-cert.zip
bin/elasticsearch-certutil cert --ca-cert /usr/share/elasticsearch/config/certs/ca/ca.crt --ca-key /usr/share/elasticsearch/config/certs/ca/ca.key --pem --days 3650 --in instance.yml --out config/certs/elastic-stack.zip
unzip config/certs/elastic-stack.zip

Inside "/usr/share/Elasticsearch/config/certs" path will have like this:

Here is my Elasticsearch.yml configure:

---
cluster.name: "docker-cluster"
network.host: 0.0.0.0

xpack.license.self_generated.type: basic
xpack.security.enabled: true

xpack.security.transport.ssl.enabled: true
xpack.security.transport.ssl.verification_mode: certificate
xpack.security.transport.ssl.key: certs/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.key
xpack.security.transport.ssl.certificate: certs/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.crt
xpack.security.transport.ssl.certificate_authorities: certs/ca/ca.crt

xpack.security.http.ssl.enabled: true
xpack.security.http.ssl.verification_mode: certificate
xpack.security.http.ssl.key: certs/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.key
xpack.security.http.ssl.certificate: certs/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.crt
xpack.security.http.ssl.certificate_authorities: certs/ca/ca.crt

And here is my kibana.yml configure:

---
server.name: kibana
server.host: kibana.local

elasticsearch.hosts: [ "https://elastic.local:9200" ]

elasticsearch.username: kibana_system
elasticsearch.password: ${KIBANA_SYSTEM_PASSWORD}

#xpack.security.enabled: true
server.ssl.enabled: true
server.ssl.certificate: /usr/share/kibana/config/certs/kibana.crt
server.ssl.key: /usr/share/kibana/config/certs/kibana.key
elasticsearch.ssl.certificateAuthorities: /usr/share/kibana/config/certs/ca/ca.crt

After that i restart 2 container ES and Kibana. I use command below here to test connect to Elasticsearch with https and ssl.

curl --cacert certs/ca/ca.crt -u elastic 'https://elastic.local:9200'

I success connect to ES with SSL and HTTPS but in kibana log i saw the error log:

Unable to retrieve version information from Elasticsearch nodes. connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:9200

I try exec to kibana container and add "127.0.0.1 kibana.local logstash.local elastic.local localhost" to "/etc/hosts" path but Kibana still not working.
It seems I am misunderstanding some step, can anyone here help me to solve this problem, I have tried searching but it does not bring me the desired results.
Thanks all!
