Where is the revelead public key in a spending transaction?

I am pursuing a deeper understanding of Bitcoin. Reading Grokking Bitcoin now. I am trying to asess the understanding of different concepts by exploring a BTC RPC explorer. I got some understanding about the key types and keys structure and key derivation in hierarchical deterministic wallets.
The book says: the PKH (double hashed from public key) is used in order to not reveal directly the public key (for better privacy), but then the public key gets revelead in the spending transaction.
In this screenshot of a random transaction I see only BTC addresses (bc1q) derived from PKH. Where is the "revelead" public key?
I am quite sure I misunderstood something.
