The process in question is more likely a deamon — daemon processed will intentionally close standard file descriptors in order to avoid hanging onto their resources. (They will also chdir
to the root directory, invoke an extra fork()
and perform a number of more obscure operations for the same reason.)

Question
when I do
ls proc/[pid]/fd
sometimes I don't get output, It seems that there are no file descriptor in that file.
What does that mean when a process doesn't have file descriptor?
