bootstrap.min.css loading is very slow if internet is disabled

I just noticed this weird behavior in my Codeigniter 3 site. This is my HTML head from the home page (CI view), of a site I have on a PC wamp server on my local network.

<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" /> 
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">
<title>Login</title>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="assets/images/favicon.ico">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="assets/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="assets/css/login_style.css">
<script src="assets/js/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="assets/js/dimmscreen.js"></script>   
</head>

I access the site on my local network. When I have an internet connection the site loads instantly. When I unplug the internet from the router, the site is slow and takes about one minute to load.

If I don't try to load the bootstrap.min.css resource and disable internet, the site is also fast. As you can see, all of the resources i use are stored in a local assets folder. I don't need anything from the internet.

So why is bootstrap.min.css causing the slowdown? Is it something connected with the path of the resource?

found the problem, bootstrap.min.css was trying to access some fonts on the web

https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:300italic,400italic,700italic,400,300,700
