Find all integer solutions to
[tex]\begin{array}{l}
{a^2} = a + b - 2c + 2d + e - 8\\
{b^2} = - a - 2b - c + 2d + 2e - 6\\
{c^2} = 3a + 2b + c + 2d + 2e - 31\\
{d^2} = 2a + b + c + 2d + 2e - 2\\
{e^2} = a + 2b + 3c + 2d + e - 8

I am using wolframalpha to find solutions(there are a finite number of them). I have to just find all the solution pairs that are integer.(Just type in the equations). But I have to say that all the wolfram alpha solutions are the only solutions. I want to do this by finding the number of solutions this equations have(for complex numbers). We know since that these are 5 equations with 5 unknowns, there are a finite number of solutions If I can find that this equation has let's say 32 solutions(made up number) theoretical, and I come up with 32 solutions in wolfram alpha, then I have met my goal and I can simply pick out the integer solutions.
But apparently it is too computationally complex no matter what you do. I even ran the system in MATLAB and after 3 hours, my fans on the computers started going really fast my computer shut down. So that is not going to work and I can't use brute force. But how does one try this analytically.
To all my helpers: Please don't tell me I didn't try on this problem. I have spent the whole day on it
