It may be the problem of snap curl, see here, cos I installed curl with snap at first and always encounter this problem, then I removed curl with sudo snap remove curl and reinstall it with sudo apt install curl, my current curl version is 7.68.0. then solved it.

I had to clear the cache: nvm cache clear.

I've got the error after I tried to install a version of Node, which I've tried to install already, however the installation processs failed at the first time due disconnecting from the internet.
