If one hangs a mirror on the rope anywhere in the world, will it vibrate at the arrival of a gravitational wave? Even if it will, then the magnitude of the vibration does not depend on the fact that 4 km away the other mirror is suspended. Mirrors are independent. Is it logical? Therefore, the mirrors simply screwed tightly to the ends of the LIGO detector.

I've explained it above. The mirrors don't primarily vibrate in space. The arrival of the gravitational wave changes the spacetime metric between the mirrors and the distance between the them as "freely falling " test masses changes instantaneously. The mirrors are not screwed tightly, we've shown you enough links and info now. What is so hard to understand?
