When we introduce the extra negative charge, this charge can create a negative contribution to the energy. However, the overal energy might increase, because this extra negative charge screens the other charges for each other. For example the interaction between the 2 positive charges in the middle will be less because there is a negative charge in between them. This is also true for the negative charges and the interaction between the positive charges and the original negative charges.
