Calling external request needs to use timeout in order to avoid waiting for a long time
You can even reproduce the case using deelay.me
e.g.
```python
import requests
response = requests.get("https://deelay.me/5000/http://localhost:80") # It will spend 5s
response = requests.get("https://deelay.me/5000/http://localhost:80", timeout=2) # timeout
response = requests.get("https://deelay.me/1000/http://localhost:80", timeout=2) # fine
```
After 2s if the request doesn't have response it raises the following exception
requests.exceptions.ReadTimeout: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='deelay.me', port=443): Read timed out. (read timeout=2)
But if it responses <=1s it is fine
Now you can test the same but using a bigger delay
