For that type of creation of a multipatch, you will have to create a Terrain or TIN, have building footprints and the generate another surface at the base (bare earth) level.  Then you can use the Extrude Between tool to create the multipatch.

The surface of the buildings is not fine. What can I do to get a surface as the next picture?

The workflow that I described will only be as good as your input data.  From what you have there, you should probably create a model in City Engine or other modeling tool if you need that type of precision.  From there you can then convert the building footprint polygons to points and then use your model to replace the point.
