How to disable Firebase Storage emulator?

When I start the emulators, the Storage emulator starts and is available at localhost:9199.
Then I access storage with the admin SDK in node.js with:

serviceAccountKey = require('./serviceAccountKey.json');
const config = {
  credential: admin.credential.cert(serviceAccountKey),
};
const adminApp = admin.initializeApp(config);
const storage = adminApp.storage();

Now storage points to the emulator, not the real service as before this emulator has been implemented.
How can I get access to the real service?
I have tried setting projectId and the env variable as described here, but it does not work.

OK, so the way is simply to start all services but storage from the command line, and not from firebase.json, this way:

firebase emulators:start --only hosting,functions,firestore,auth,ui

Running firebase emulators:start will start all services in an emulated state. If you want to talk to a production service, you can run firebase serve, or if you want some services emulated but not storage, you can run firebase serve --only {services,to,emulate} (eg, firebase serve --only functions,hosting. This would emulate functions and hosting, but any call to storage (or auth or other non-emulated services) would talk to the live Firebase environment.
