infact I see different output in pdftex  luatex and xetex:

Hello\message{%
1xxxxxxxxxx%
2xxxxxxxxx%
3xxxxxxxxx%
4xxxxxxxxx%
5xxxxxxxxx%
6xxxxxxxxx%
7xxxxxxxxx%
8xxxxxx鹿xx%
9xxxxxxxxx%
10xxxxxxxx%
11xxxxxxxx%
12xxxxxxxx%
13xxxxxxxx%
14xxxxxxxx%
15xxxxxxxx%
16xxxxxxxx%
}
\bye

xetex and luatex correctly display 鹿 but luatex has this off-by-one "bug"
that I still have to catch.
