I'm curious as to why in almost every Detective Conan case there are always
around three suspects? Even when there are cases with many suspects, Conan
always narrows it down to three or four suspects. When there is a case
involving a serial killer there are at least three suspects at the end.

Is there any explanation from Aoyama Gosho about this?

Why is the average number of suspects three or more in Detective Conan?


Three is a number that would make the story go more smoothly. If there were
only 2 suspects, the evidence would continuously weigh one one another, making
the case go for 5 chapters compared to the usual three. If there are four, or
more than such, it would be like watching longer replays of the 50 million
suspects case, but these are fillers with no specific information that is
important to the timeline, so they should not go longer than 3 chapters.
