Laravel route mapping problem: can not map an url to a controller method

I have a laravel project served by apache and located in the apache root folder and accessed at http://hostname/foo and I have troubles to map an url to a controller method. The following is the controller with the method (simplified for the purpose of illustration).

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;

class ShowController extends Controller
{
    public function show($id)
    {
        return 'show: ' . $id;
    }
}

The following is the route mapping in routes/web.php

Route::get('show/{id}', 'ShowController@show');

The trouble is that the url like the following doesn't work.

http://hostname/foo/show/1

The above url got me to phpinfo(). But the following url gave the expected result.

http://hostname/foo/public/show/1

The following mappings don't work either.

Route::get('/show/{id}', 'ShowController@show'); // with a leading slash
Route::get('show/{id}', 'ShowController@show')->name('show');
Route::get('/show/{id}', 'ShowController@show')->name('show'); // with a leading slash

I appreciate any info or suggestion. Thanks. My php is 7.1.

The project should be served from the public folder.

This entry point of Laravel will always be /public.

You can find how configure Apache here :

I believe you use something like xamp, wamp... I recommend not using theses but launch the server with php artisan serve. This way, you could access your website on localhost:8000 by default.
