Not hard, yes you can relock and reflash stock via miflash. Read, re-read, and understand before you take steps.. plenty of guides here on xda

I followed the steps carefully and the root succeded but the applications that requires root access doesn't work. ?
1- GAMECIH : The System deny to root.
2- GAME KILLER :Root privilege needed.
3- Sql Editor : Does not show any thing (any databases).
4- Root Browser : works but I can't edit any file.
For me it's a big problem. ?

Nope. Just update it to Nougat: there's automatic lock screen time on that version.

Nougat better than MM. Update by OTA, if you are not rooted and bootloader is locked, else flash stock MM rom, modify official update and flash via TWRP

You must unlock bootloader to root the device. As your phone is still in original condition, just check for updates in settings, it will display some updates, download and install them.

You can use Qfil: with it you don't need root or unlocked bootloader. Just download the stock ROM you're interested in from Zukfans.eu (maybe you can find it here on XDA, I don't know) and flash it with Qfil. We're changing the argument dough... the original question of this thread was another one. If you want further informations, search them here on XDA.

I'll give you the infos about Qfil etc, but I have a doubt: what did you mean with "automatic lock screen time"? I'm asking you this because maybe i misunderstood and there's no such option even on Nougat's Official ROM.
Anyway, Qfil, in theory, will void your warranty, but, if you flash everything correctly, no one will notice you used such a program. About Qfile there's a guide just right here on XDA: https://forum.xda-developers.com/zuk-z2-pro/how-to/howto-flash-stock-rom-t3435109
You can find the stock ROM on ZukFans.eu: https://zukfans.eu/community/threads/full-2-5-412_st_-qpst.6185/
https://zukfans.eu/community/threads/indian-z2-plus-qpst-official-firmware-zui_2-0-093_st.587/
There are both the Indian and Chinese versions, but the indian one is not updated yet, so You'll need, if you want Nougat, to flash the Chinese one.
And if you find Qfil too difficult to use, there's MiFlash. You can find the guide on Adroid Brick: http://www.androidbrick.com/zuk-z2-z2-pro-qpst-qfil-miflash-rom-flashing-guide/
About this last guide, tough, i suggest to ignore the part about Windows Test Mode and, instead, do this (this is a procedure to follow so you can avoid drivers' issues):
1) Click on the reboot virtual button in the Start menu while pressing the left shift button.
2) The pc will reboot in a light blue menu, in which you'll have to click on "troubleshooting" (the second option).
3) Click on advanced settings/option.
4) Click on "Startup Setting" (the penultimate option).
5) Click on "reboot".
6) Press F7
I hope i helped. Anyway, I must repet myself, this thread was created with a different intent.

Big thanks for good explained & well noted in my PC... But what ?? you not understand what is "automatic lock screen time" ? Oh not good per previous your reply #5 above mention nougat has that function but now you said no... ??

When you update to the latest version (v10.0.13.0 from fastboot) on here https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/fastboot-xiaomi-mi-a2-fastboot-images-t3824871 once you set your data connection probably you can get a notification to update to the latest OTA v10.0.15.0 from around 66 mb sized and this firmware can be useful to flash the rom at any time that you need it.

I'm used to flashing from fastboot but I'm pretty sure that only works with an unlocked bootloader. I've read that you can use miflash with a locked bootloader but you need a complete rom and the most recent one is 10.0.13.0

Thanks For The Swift Response.
The Issue is That , The November Security Patch Is Not Installing. My Phone Is Not Rooted And Bootloader Is Locked Too With Stock ROM. I Read The Queries Related To My Phone Issue People Are Saying That This Is The Partition Issue.

I don´t think that this could be the issue in your specific case if your device never was modified so partition remain as stock as Xiaomi released it.
You can read something like this either update is from Xiaomi itself or a Google security patch https://www.theverge.com/2019/9/4/20847758/google-android-update-problem-pie-q-treble-mainline
