The specimen is collected from Hong Kong on 12 April 2021. Is it possible to identify this species?

Drosophila (subg. Sophophora), melanogaster group. Many species in China, mostly impossible to determine from pictures. Please correct the family name.
The folkowig paper could help you:

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol
