when there are a plurality of delivery route candidates from a position of the logistics robot to a delivery destination of the package, the one or more processors are further configured to select, as the delivery route, a delivery route candidate from the plurality of delivery route candidates based on at least a congestion degree of each of the plurality of delivery route candidates, and a time of day, the congestion degree being considered differently in selecting the delivery route based on the time of day, and
the one or more processors are further configured to:
select a delivery route candidate with a lowest congestion degree among the plurality of delivery route candidates as the delivery route during a first time if day; and

select a delivery route candidate with a highest congestion degree among the plurality of delivery route candidates as the delivery route during a second time of day different from the first time of day.
