How to write a Regular expressions for Traditional Chinese characters

Hi,

I am trying to collect Windows DNS debug logs with Nxlog xm_multiline. I reference below link: Parsing Detailed DNS Logs With Regular Expressions (https://nxlog.co/documentation/nxlog-user-guide/windows-dns-server.html#parsing-detailed)

But, Windows DNS Debug Logs includes Traditional Chinese characters, it won't let me combine multiline into one log, What is correct "HEADER_REGEX" that should I use?

DNS Debug Logs sample is (I beleive problem is 上午, By the way, 上午=AM and 下午=PM): 2020/3/6 上午 11:58:01 0E80 PACKET 000001D80FE9BD40 UDP Snd 10.0.35.101 a3f5 R Q [8081 DR NOERROR] A (5)e3998(1)d(10)akamaiedge(3)net(0) UDP response info at 000001D80FE9BD40 Socket = 724 Remote addr 10.0.35.101, port 56423 Time Query=283057, Queued=283057, Expire=283060 Buf length = 0x0200 (512) Msg length = 0x0038 (56) Message: XID 0xa3f5 Flags 0x8180 QR 1 (RESPONSE) OPCODE 0 (QUERY) AA 0 TC 0 RD 1 RA 1 Z 0 CD 0 AD 0 RCODE 0 (NOERROR) QCOUNT 1 ACOUNT 1 NSCOUNT 0 ARCOUNT 0 QUESTION SECTION: Offset = 0x000c, RR count = 0 Name "(5)e3998(1)d(10)akamaiedge(3)net(0)" QTYPE A (1) QCLASS 1 ANSWER SECTION: Offset = 0x0028, RR count = 0 Name "C00Ce3998(1)d(10)akamaiedge(3)net(0)" TYPE A (1) CLASS 1 TTL 20 DLEN 4 DATA 96.7.252.200 AUTHORITY SECTION: empty ADDITIONAL SECTION: empty
