Turn the device over and remove the two 0.5mm screws near the front of the mouse by using a Phillips #0 screwdriver.
The black screws used in the Logitech M125 frame are all the same size and do not need special consideration for keeping them separated. Silver colored screws are used on the circuit board and have broader heads.
Once the screws are removed, open the mouse from the front as it pivots at the rear.

There are two tabs that further secure the mouse buttons to the frame. They are located on either side of the mouse cord retracting mechanism.
The tighter confines of the mouse interior will be easier to navigate with metal prying tools. While plastic tools are preferred for most plastic devices, they are too large to access the left tab in the picture.
To dislodge the tabs, use a prying tool while pressing down on the back of the mouse. When prying, push the tab towards the outside of the mouse.
