Hi, Fabienne -- Thanks for reaching out here! Perhaps it would be helpful if you were able to share your file to help illustrate what you have in mind? Any additional details you could share would be appreciated so that others may be able to offer suggestions.

Each drag item can only have on correct drop target, but there are a few community members who have inventive ways of dealing with this. You may want to look at threads such as this one, and I'll also defer to the communities expertise for further assistance with your file.
Sorry to hear it doesn't work for you in the office Fabienne, perhaps they've got some blocks on the set up not allowing you to get to those types of video pages? If so, definitely take a look at home and let us know if you have any questions.
Thanks for sharing your file. Since it's not the built in behavior of Storyline's drag and drop set up, since each drag item can only have on correct drop target, you'd need to do something custom using states and/or variables likely. Did you look into any of the discussions shared in the link I included above? I'd defer to the community's expertise on this custom set up.
I'm sorry I can't offer more assistance on this today, but hopefully someone in the community may be around to weigh in on this design idea. You could also look at posting a new query in the Building Better Courses side of the forums as that is where more design related and how to related questions go.
Here is a sample that allows correct answers to be dropped on any target. it is as simple as I could make it, so perhaps you can follow it along.
Do try the sample before you read the explanation, as that is the easiest way to understand it.
Each object (text box) has a variable to indicate if that object is in the correct location. Each correct object has its variable set to false, because they are not on a target. The incorrect object's variable is set to true, because it is not on a target, and is in the correct position.
If a correct answer is dropped on any target (small circle), its variable turns from false to true to indicate that object is dropped correctly.
If a correct answer is dragged across the large circle (as it would be if dragged off a target), its variable turns to false to indicate that object is not dropped correctly.
If the incorrect answer is dropped on any target (small circle), its variable turns from true to false to indicate that object is not dropped correctly.
If the incorrect answer is dragged across the large circle (as it would be if dragged off a target), its variable turns to true to indicate that object is dropped correctly.
The pick one interaction is set so the answer is correct if the Correct textbox is selected.
When the slide starts, the Incorrect textbox is set to an initial state of selected, so if the user clicks submit, they will receive a message that they are wrong, instead of a message that they must choose an answer.
If all the objects have their variable set to true, the Correct textbox is selected, and the answer is correct.
The only problem is that since this is not a drag and drop interaction, you cannot access the setting to allow only one object on a target, so if the user changes their mind, they must drag each object away from the target.

Good Morning Christies,
Here is my storyline file with the question.
Thank a lot for your help.

Good Morning,
I decide to reorganize my question.
Now how to put 2 labels in 2 different boxes whichever comes first ?
This is the slide 1.2.
Thanks a lot for your help.

Good Evening Ashley,
Thank you for your reply.
I saw the discussions about the drag and drop topic but I couldn't find solution. but I am also not very comfortable with variables.
Regards.

Good Evening Walt,
Thank you for your email and your explanations. I looked at your story file.
I am going to try to reproduce the same parameters tomorrow and will let you know what happened.
Thank you again.
Have anice day.
