I have done again the test , and this time perhaps at a higher volume,
and with a different headphone (hd25 1 II). This time I've been able to hear the 21 khz frequency. What's funny , it's that I hear 21 khz more clearly than the 20 khz frequency (or I'm not even sure than I hear 20 khz ). I'm missing the logic of this. I think it's hard to get consistent results from this test, I'm not sure they are so meaningful. And if you hear something as quite weak, is that valid as "you hear that frequency" ?
