Consider the lines $L_1$ and $L_2$ defined by
$L _1: x \sqrt{2}+ y -1=0$ and $L _2: x \sqrt{2}- y +1=0$
For a fixed constant $\lambda$, let $C$ be the locus of a point $P$ such that the product of the distance of $P$ from $L_1$ and the distance of $P$ from $L_2$ is $\lambda^2$. The line $y=2 x+1$ meets $C$ at two points $R$ and $S$, where the distance between $R$ and $S$ is $\sqrt{270}$.
Let the perpendicular bisector of $RS$ meet $C$ at two distinct points $R ^{\prime}$ and $S ^{\prime}$. Let $D$ be the square of the distance between $R ^{\prime}$ and $S ^{\prime}$.
($1$) The value of $\lambda^2$ is
($2$) The value of $D$ is
