Answer 1

It's hard to know exactly which bytes your source code contains, or the string which getBytes() is being called on, due to your editor and compiler encodings.

Can you produce a short but complete program containing only ASCII (and the relevant \uxxxx escaping in the string) which still shows the problem?

I suspect the problem may well be with the console output on either Windows or Linux, but it would be good to get a reproducible program first.
