The caller of Main.pm has direct access to show_me() and show_here() using qualified name,
Main::show_here; # since exported by default by Common.pm
Main::show_me; # originally in Main.pm
If the caller has its own use Common then it doesn't have to qualify it, show_here() is enough.
However, if you meant that "a way to include Common.pm in Main.pm so Contact.pm can use show_here directly, then make Main.pm to reexport the function.
package Main;
....
use Exporter;
use Common;
our @ISA = qw(Exporter); # borrows import()
our @EXPORT = qw(show_here); # just @Common::Export to export
# what ever Common exports.
....
sub show_me {}
1;
The caller,
use Main;
Main::show_me();
show_here()
