Wow.

Although this modifies and extends the specs in post#1, it doesn't make things much clearer. And, your code samples don't really help...

Wildly guessing / assuming that
- every record in in one single line
- "in between" means "in the same line"
- you want records with either keyword
- the keyword doesn't need to be listed in the output
, would this come close to what you need?

Code:
grep -E "LoggingRestRequestResponseInterceptor|HttpClientUtil" file | grep -Eo ".((first|last)Name|pointsBalance)[^,}]*"
"pointsBalance":111834
"firstName":"xx"
"lastName":"xx"
"pointsBalance":29878
"firstName":"yy"
"lastName":"yy"

If it doesn't, please become way more specific with your description of the problem.

ZGREP(1)						      General Commands Manual							  ZGREP(1)

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
