Do this command in a terminal. I'm assuming the command base64 exists on your
system.
echo 4oCcRWQNCg== | base64 -d > Ed
Then cat the file Ed
It should be

But I think on your system it will not be that way.
FWIW, I believe this will end up being a NOTABUG.
I'm pretty sure that gnome-terminal, like konsole, is expecting that the fonts being
used are monospace.
As you can see, if you use Custom Fonts in gnome-terminal there is no option to select AR
PL UKai CN Book.
In the case of konsole, you also can't directly select AR PL UKai CN Book. But, if
you check the box that
says "Show all fonts" you will get a warning message about potential display
issues.
As a matter of fact, if one forces AR PL UKai CN Book similar issues do show with the
UTF-8: 0xE2 0x80 0x9C
character as is the case with the sample provided.
So, forcing a non-monospace font in gnome-tweaks is a bad idea. If anything, you should
consider writing
a bugzilla against gnome-tweaks which asks that it limit the font choices for
"monspace text" to actual
monospace fonts.
