Line $L_1$ passes through the point $(1, 2, 3)$ and is parallel to the $z$-axis. Line $L_2$ passes through the point $(\lambda, 5, 6)$ and is parallel to the $y$-axis. Let for $\lambda = \lambda_1, \lambda_2$ with $\lambda_2 < \lambda_1$,the shortest distance between the two lines be $3$. Then the square of the distance of the point $(\lambda_1, \lambda_2, 7)$ from the line $L_1$ is:
