Thank you for answering.
I tried your suggestion and it's got fast, but still slow and
could not get rid of "Using temporary; Using filesort".
I don't understand why this simple query is so slow...

Hi,
if your selectivity is very low, try to use multiple index on e2s(co_id,
mod_time) and force this index in query.
