Let the line $L: \sqrt{2}x + y = \alpha$ pass through the point of intersection $P$ (in the first quadrant) of the circle $x^2 + y^2 = 3$ and the parabola $x^2 = 2y$. Let the line $L$ touch two circles $C_1$ and $C_2$ of equal radius $2\sqrt{3}$. If the centres $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ of the circles $C_1$ and $C_2$ lie on the $y$-axis,then the square of the area of the triangle $PQ_1Q_2$ is equal to:

  • A
    $70$
  • B
    $72$
  • C
    $77$
  • D
    $75$
