How to search contact using Google People API

Question

I am using google people API.For that I am using java client library. I can do list,add,update,get contacts,But I can't search the contact by using people API.For example If I want to fetch the contacts by phone number start with (+919500) or Name start with letter "M" . how to achieve this? Please help me to find the solution for this.

Note: I don't want the result using Contact API v3 or Google + because these API are deprecated.
