It looks like so:

What can I do to get rid of it?

Welcome to TeX.SX! How are you compiling? If you are using XeTeX you may need the -8bit option. — TeXnician, Feb 10 '18 at 09:28
Well, yes, I'm using XeTeX, and with this option it works. Thank you! — zdevaty, Feb 10 '18 at 09:31
@TeXnician, could you make it an answer so I can mark it as a solution? — zdevaty, Feb 10 '18 at 09:33

Although I'm sure this is a duplicate, I'm going to answer this.

Your problem with ^^I when compiling with XeLaTeX can be solved by using the command-line option -8bit.

Now I see why I haven't found it elsewhere. The ^^I is a tabulator, and my code was already indented a bit. – zdevaty Feb 10 '18 at 09:42
If you try https://tex.stackexchange.com/search?q=code%3A%22-8bit%22 the duplicate appears near the top. – egreg Feb 10 '18 at 10:28
@egreg Thanks for the hint. I rarely use the site's search (mostly another search engine that does not output the result that fast). – TeXnician Feb 10 '18 at 10:46
